    89T vs. Porsche

    Yeah man nice kill. I ran across a late model carrera convertible (I'm guessing 996) on the freeway this morning on the way to work. The guy driving seemed like a douche. He had his lady in the car and he thought he was big as shit. Too bad I was in my beater (1995 cavalier, whopping 115Hp)...

    Single best run ever, too bad it cost me the race.

    Oh, I am. I kinda realized I was probably going too fast when I blew by him at the end, but it just felt so good. I was really just going for my best run. I didn't mean to make it sound like I was really upset, just kinda funny how my best time turned out to be a bad thing. I'm no bracket...

    Chi2k5, Who is gonna be there?

    I don't have a problem with that, as long as you don't snore :biglaugh:, no seriously. Hey Mkiisupraman18, I don't know if I missed it, you said you'll be driving an eclipse, did you get rid of all your supras, or are they just not up and running? Brent

    Single best run ever, too bad it cost me the race.

    My buddy works for Honeywell and they had a track day last Wednesday at Norwalk. They had their own bracket set up and as per usual you got a couple of runs to dial in your times. My first run was terrible, but my next two I ran nearly identical 14.115's (which at the time were my fastest runs...

    Antique Supra?

    I guess if you got caught daily driving it, i.e. got a speeding ticket or something, and didn't have a good story, your insurance company would be notified and they might pull it. That's less about the mileage, and more about how the vehicle is being used though. I'm pretty sure when you get...

    Win the lottery - what car to buy tomorrow?

    Hey, I'm with you on the carbon frame and body panels, then I'd have it built with an integral cage that would be nearly invisible when all the interior panels were replaced, I might have a hard time passing tech though. Light weight and full stock look. That would be priceless. :icon_bigg

    Win the lottery - what car to buy tomorrow?

    Good call man, I hear those Noble M12's are pretty awesome cars. Not sure how I feel about the looks, but I'd like to see one in person.

    Win the lottery - what car to buy tomorrow?

    Too bad it has to be under 100K, I really want this: http://www.carpictures.com/contents/05ECA103523774.html Ha, if you think the mkiii is heavy, how about 6500lbs and still 0-62 in 4.4 sec. Sadly I've been daydreaming about winning the lottery alot lately, and hell the mega millions jackpot...

    Fresh wash

    Looking good man. I babied my car this weekend with a nice wash and wax, too. Doesn't look quite as good as yours though. I need to get a good polish on it. Then again, my paint has twice as many miles on it. :icon_mrgr

    Had an offer for my car today

    Hey Dan, I was worried there for a second when I first saw the thread title. I guess I should have known better. :bigthumb: for keeping it.

    anyone here want this car?

    Nope, everything is exactly the same, you "just" have to learn to shift properly with the other hand from the other side of the car. It still wouldn't feel right in traffic, you would be right next to the guy in the lane to your right, and when making turns, I'd be curbing those custom wheel...

    anyone here want this car?

    Yeah, they had it on the cover a couple of months back. Ridiculous power and performance considering it is somewhat factory delivered. The price isn't really even that bad considering. I'll take two, one in the color shown in the article, and one blacked out, now if I could only get one in...
