Tuners and Racers - any out there?

[YoungBuck]

Oh...and agreed with the ugly sounding fart-can mufflers...I have a full Greddy EvoII Exhaust set-up on my car and the noise it makes is so deep and sounds so powerful...not all tinny like a rice rocket.

My car is rusty... 90 Teg LS/Vtec

Nice car pics, BOA & PYTHONS (by the way,
do you have a name?).

Algarve has great tuning tradition. South Spain also. I've seen some nice cars there.

Very cool saves on me typing the full thing from now on.

So any photo of your tuner?

I wish I could bring mine back to my small village in Minho and race those mountains edge roads with my tuner, was alot of fun with a VW Golf GT but this is more power and more traction

CRAZY4REPTILES:

I loved the few I ever saw of that car, the double window look was what caught my eye at first on them. Not sure but I think they discontinued them after a few years. Sorry for the loss and hopefully nobody was hurt.

Although I have seen many of those after shots with alot of cars from some friends and others who claim they knew there car and power. It takes more control to not be tempted on the rage of racing. My earlier years I was more gung ho with a stock car of 195 hp built to 270 hp on the few Talons I owned. Those were crazy days and I was much younger. My ride now has the force to handle most anything that would step up to me, but the real control is to know what is worth it and what is not. With so many new life reponsibilities and a decent ride that few can actually craze me into a race, I can honestly say I fear few and the ones that are above that line also know these machines are to be respected not to be part - time mastered.

Our little group all have some experience with the old days and now all have the life experience to treasure our rides and make them last as long as the love for them. The little punks that meet us at a red light can rev there engines all they want, its the sleepers that always win not the screamers

Although I do have a date planned with a 2001 Corvette and 1999 Trans Am being set up in the summer as part of a show at a track to raise funds for handicapped children. Myself, Darren and Micheal have wanted to battle it out and now there is a cause - quickest 1/4 mile wins the debate after 3 years

bleh who needs exhaust, probably everyone here in indiana who has no smog related laws we all just run either open downpipe or open header, atleast us import guys

[BOAS_N_PYTHONS]

JDM:

LOL, yeah laws are different here. The random 30 car pull over they love to do here is always full. Checking exhaust, lights, noise levels, tint, body components, wings, ground clearance and the list goes on. But it s funny when they reach our group cause they try but they can' t nail anything. We are all borderline on specs but still they can' t nail a ticket of looks or noise, lol
