Hey you two, I don't even know what those type numbers are but it sounds like alot of fun. **** on highjacking the thread, lets hear more.
Maybe if everyone complains we could start a new thread for heavier then air flying machine bench racers.
BTW I went out for dinner and came back to 4 new pages. Man your popular.

Yep, maybe we do Scud.
But right now I gotta talk to Jon. Now I know this is your first try at movie making but you need to take some artistic license.
It is boring, you need some girls. Next time get a girl with nice **** and have her give you some head while driving. :D Do the lighting a little different. Dim the dash and turn up the floods on the girl.
Fasten that lens cap. What is all that thumping? Do you have tar strips on the roads back there?
Listen to me the rating may go to R but you'll get more veiwers then with PG.
When you go to the track have both outside taping as well as your inside camara. Leave the girl at the start line with all her pretty freinds to cheer you on and get their pictures jumping up and down.(No bras)
Then you can come west and be a movie producer. I'll introduce you around and hand out your tape. Give up that dead end job, flying around feeling free and happy.

It got so bad last night around 3:00am that I started rounding up pairs of animals.
At least tonight should be better.
Sunday is looking real good. Sunny and upper 30°s. I am surprised Atco is still open. Eveything else is shut down for the winter.

On a side not, I drive about 30 miles all together last night. Before the turbo was installed, i would be at less than 3/4's tank left in fuel. After the turbo was installed, I am at well over 3/4's tank left... even with my foot 'in it' for most of that trip. I guess the e-manage is helping that out some

RX8 and a Truk....
Just a thought...are you afraid at all, of the turbo reducing the 'fun' of driving? With both of my previous cars, adding boost was fun for awhile...a few weeks...a few months...There came a time where I got too busy monitoring A/F ratios, boost levels, EGTs, Fuel Pressures, etc; became soo worried about knock...or the strength of the parts of the drive train; I became so preoccupied the love of just 'driving' the car left. The car become, officially, a 'project'.

Yesterday, I used 1/2 tank in 80 miles. Maybe it was all of the drifting and donuts.:D

I know what you are talking about - my MX-3 was that way. But, if you get it right, it doesn't have to be that way. I know my Miata isn't.
