The never ending Car / Truck picture thread

[Ramjet]

Yep sounds like you have quite the hooligan machine yourself LOL ,she would be amazing on Mosport . I would take her out for a track day and see what she really can do . I am sure your car is more than I could make use of just the way it is never mind a turbo that would be nuts LOL . I went for my class B racing licence a year or so back at Shannanville Raceway and will be building a MGB for the track soon. Have just about collected all the parts so as soon as my shop is finished I can start the build. Not much more than Go karts @ 1600 or so lbs with 200hp and top out at around 130mph but they can take a corner like nothing on earth . something I can trailer to the track and have some fun with . I also have a 1/2 rebuild 1978 vette lurking in the back of the shop that has been upgraded with a FI 1994 LT1 corvette engine and a super T-10 tranny I just loved the lines of the old bubble back vette. Not that the new ones are not beautiful I am just a classic car nut ..cheers Roger

Supercharger for me next year on the Vette Roger. Trying to talk Laurie into a Roush twin screw for the Mustang but she's a bit stingy when it comes to these things.

Always wanted to get into racing Roger. Always wanted a pilots license as well but it's the same old story. Have money no time or have time no money. Sort of like a dog chasin his tail.

If you want to take things to the track, I can certainly help with that. I run Canada's largest not for profit organization inviting people to the track for very very cheap. On the 21st we are at Mosport on hosting a Charity track day, and we're associated with CASC-OR / ASN Canad FIA / Canadian Association of Rally sport, so pick your poison and we can assist. www.spda-online.ca

PM me and I'll get you on the track with qualified coaches, this will guarantee that your first time won't be your last time, and you'll end up with Ear to ear grin.

Joe you know as soon as I have a car ready I will be there . Dude that vette needs some serous traction help my wife's minivan hooks up better LOL. Funny that vid looked like my first ever run at the drag strip, I think it took me 20sec and I burned rubber 1/2 way to the end LOL. sure looks cool though .

Maybe I should start a thread "How do you know when you have too many cars?" cuz' I stumbled onto something I have drooled over since I was a kid and well... the old impulse to buy struck again - hard!

Deal isn't completed yet - still having trouble convincing my conscience (wife) that this is a good idea.

Thursday evening will tell the tale, going to have a first hand look and it can only go one of two ways...

Wish me luck please!

Just spend a whole bunch on one or two Merv. Much easier to store.

Some say that about model engines too Bill! But we know better eh?

My kids are shouting "BUY IT DAD! BUY IT!!!" so even if I do, chances of me getting to drive it are slim indeed!

Pulled the trigger... now to see if I am still allowed in the house!!

[williame3590]

Good luck, hopefully your barn is tight with plenty of straw on hand.
