Thats funny runs 13s and blows coolant out.

I bet it smokes more than a ***** on a busy Friday night.


Jimmy I was in the Army also, as a Scout Sniper and Miltary mechanics are really not mechanics.. its all book and procedure.. I would never add that to my list of experiences and cliams and gains of knowledge. Cause its not.. been there done it..

Ya know, If I didn't like eating so much I'd just go get the damn g-tech myself. I only spent 900 dollars on my car this month as it is....

GLHS, I take it you were a cav scout? I went to basic at Knox too. Can't say I miss that place.

Aviation mechanics are a bit different than the motor pool. We were trained to fix **** in the field because sometimes you can't fly it to the depot for repairs.

I've been spinning wrenches for the last 20 years.

Jesus Padilla, the 2002 All Motor champion, earned his seventh victory of the season when opponent Leslie Durst failed to appear for the final round. Padilla blasted his '85 Mazda RX-7 to the quickest All Motor pass in history at 10.047 seconds.

Watch out with the Neon, they do make low 15 sec passes, and I've seen them in the high 14's too!!

I raced a del sol with the B16A with I/H/E and won by the end of the 1/4 mile , but after that he put about 2 car lengths on me though. It also depends on the driver skill level too.
