speedyquest Posted April 14, 2012 Report Share Posted April 14, 2012 Now before I make my comment I would like to point out that I respect you very much Convette... BUT, I just don't get this kind of video, not only is that dangerous but its impossible to see whats going on. I don't think I've ever seen one of these types of videos that I enjoyed watching not only because it simply didn't show anything of any value in my eyes but because all you see is blackness and some headlights. That being said keep up all the great work you do on your car, you motivate a lot of people here including me to keep improving our cars.

I know its dangerous and bla bla, but this is what ppl do here. There must have been over 100 cars out that night, and every friday night for that matter. I honestly thought the video was pretty clear for a night shot. ported 243 heads and a cam and you might have that supra.... i think itd take a turbo to beat the 911 lol I know... I was all amped up to turbo it last month, but I think im going to build this motor soon. I NEED another 100hp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lance_S Posted April 17, 2012 Report Share Posted April 17, 2012 Spray it, you Nancy... ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^What he said. The great thing about nos is that is very reliable, relatively cheap to bolt on, proven to work and it's a riot to hit the button. I was reading up on the LS1 forums and know guys are running 150 shot reliably. Heck, it will handle 100 in it's sleep. And you don't need the extra power all the time. The car is still darn quick without the spray. You prolly can't hit the button until you get into third anyway cuz you will just roast the meats. Either way, it's a pretty inexpensive 100 HP and big fun. Wish I could throw it on the quest but I have heard nos and turbos don't work so well.

AshyBone Posted April 23, 2012 Report Share Posted April 23, 2012 ... That's like over $2 million dollars sitting right there infront of you lol. Which one did you race? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Convette Posted April 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2012 None. Those guys were lame, they went from this lot to a club, I did see them leaving later on, but couldn't get turned around quick enough to catch them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fuze Posted June 16, 2012 Report Share Posted June 16, 2012 I know... I was all amped up to turbo it last month, but I think im going to build this motor soon. I NEED another 100hp. Ahhh so many options on that motor. A head and cam package for less than $1500 will put you into the 500HP range easy. Hardest part is choosing, LOL.! I wish they had a GoPro with NightVision capability. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Technology Posted June 16, 2012 Report Share Posted June 16, 2012 Or just headers, turbo and injectors, and a tune. DONE. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Technology Posted June 16, 2012 Report Share Posted June 16, 2012 Oh, and you're gonna need more than just 100 more HP..... son. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hardest part is choosing, LOL.! I wish they had a GoPro with NightVision capability. I know I know.. its just down time that I dont have. Every weekend is something race/show/ road trip.. So busy in the summer. And yes a night time gopro would this ish.Or just headers, turbo and injectors, and a tune. DONE. Yeah I had the turbo crave but I dont feel like making another set of headers right now. I just got back from racing tonight, its honestly stupid how many cars I race on a weekly basis. For example this past week, Aston Vantage- made the dude feel bad.. m6, m1, z4m, 3 turbo neons, 5 f bodys, 3 new camaros, 2 vettes, about 6 mustangs... etc etc... I love my car. That said, straight line stuff is cool and all, but so skill-less. Yes you find out who's car is faster but it really only equates to who has deeper pockets. Like dude in the m6, nice car, dropped, HRE's, exhaust, tune.. cool... dudes got 100g's + in it, he should beat me (and did, 1/2 a car.. 2nd to top of 3rd roll). Its only money. Turns are where its at. Son. Edited June 17, 2012 by Convette Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turns are where its at. Son. Taking me back to the freeway days. I got tired of rolling drags too after a while, but of course I can't encourage racing in traffic.... (*cough cough, ahem) You've got a sick scene there, hasn't been something like that around here since the Avenue P and Hunt's Point days. These days I stick to the roads that run through the woods and hills... unless I'm in the Vette. Edited June 22, 2012 by Fuze Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Convette Posted June 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 23, 2012 Yeah I mean I've never been one to be all for illegal street racing, but here its a way of life. Doesnt feel wrong cause thats what ppl do here. I sure am going to miss this. (moving next month) I will be focusing more on time attack rather than screwing around.

If they don't street race in Detroit, somethings very wrong, lol.Only age has mellowed me, we've got the Etown road course here and NJ motorsports park, a Formula 1 level track. Running on the street is free though, track days cost hundreds. Both are fun as hell but you know the deal. With your ride, I think time attack is inevitable and you'll find the weak points faster doing that. I'm still working on getting a garage for the year, then we'll see what rolls out of it! peace bro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Convette Posted July 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 4, 2012 Yeah I hear you. Hopefully I can control myself when I get back to the mountains in cali. Not planning on doing anymore street racing when I get to cali, unless someone wants it.. haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
