I understand that. I agree, turbo renesis is not the way to go. I don't think a 3 rotor n/a or possibly even an LSx would ruin the handling. If you were to go turbo, I agree, turbo RE is the way to go. I believe greddy's first turbo car was from the REW. It definitely seems like a turbo RE would be the chespest and way to go and it would be fairly reliable. What turbo you going with? I'm actually probably going to buy upgraded twins to hit 420rwhp. I think thats the cheapest way to get there.

This happened only because of geographical reasons. Nothing else. Meets became few and far between, so smaller social groups formed. Thats a good thing.
lemme rephrase, 2010 sucked, we all blew motors, BUT we did have an epic ny meet (omar and dennis)

LOL me? be very optimistic.

Let me know
.
word? its less than 10 minutes from where we airsoft.... i bought the cr kais there

EDIT--- Remember go big or go home. I was looking at buying a new car, but realized it wouldn't be a smart thing to do right now. So I will continue on with my 8. Except this time I'll be moving at lightning speed. =]
dont get a 7. u will mostlikely end up painted the whole car and you will look like every other tnc member.................. haha re the rx8. you have everything but the power... get a youll have SOME power, you'll want more, then you will want everything else...

the only reason its still just a theory is because nobody has the ***** and the bank to test it properly

and yes al you definetly no the dwell time of the ls1 vs the stock coils and how it may or may not effect our engines based on timing at all rpms

yeah, from that statement you come off like a dick.............................



meooww


all in all it wasnt a good year...deals gap caravan got fudged up. me omar steve kel blew our engines. no tnc meet invasions... majority of people had other interest other than their cars.... lets face it no one was as dedicated as before. hopefully this year all us "big" talkers (<<<<<< and you too abdul) we will ACTUALLY go to some track events


Meow meow

I agree with Benny
alot of us went thru some issh in 2010.
I for one Enjoyed the Track day Me and ABdul's went to.
it was just straight up 6,7 sec races.

thats where I will focus my attention this year, its the reason I fell in love with Modding cars. right now I am slacking
other than getting some Direzza Star specs and a AMS front end I am getting bored. or running out of money :P
