Before I call bullshit, what all is done to your 3800?

Why not politely ask what he has done to his engine before you even mention bullshit? Do you have no social skills at all? :flipa:


Cool article man, I'd love to have my car in a local paper some day.

Hey congrats on your article. Good to see it made the press

unrelated to the article, it wuold be my guess you wuold hit a high 12 if you got into the 12s. Almost definately a low 13. Trap around 103-105 or so.

250whp is good enough to get high 12s. Look at Will's timeslip, I believe he did a 12.6 with a 275hp chip on his 300hp N*. He was probibly around 250whp as well.

Well when you make bullshit claims I'll call it :thumbleft:

However, judging by your dyno, I think a high 12 would easily be in the realm of possibility. As for pulling the tires, I'd like to see the video of that...

The bullshit stops when the green flag drops. Bench racing is easy. Driving is harder. With absolutely no disrespect to Rborecky I will believe a 12.xx quarter mile when I see a timeslip for one. That's the same standard I have for everybody.

The math says it's possible. Good luck!

And in addition to what Doug said, I never called bullshit. I simply wated to know what was done to it. A stock L67 isn't going to pull a 12 second 1/4mi.

Whew, I was getting worried there for a minute. Thank God aaron is here to call bullshit, what would we ever do without him? Such an asset to the forum, I can sleep better at night knowing he is going to be here to call bullshit and make himself look like a complete idiot while doing so.

:knob:
