[QUOTE=Tucks;30559569]That's Scotland my man.[/QUOTE]
...close enough :v: Seriously though that place is pretty.
That's the city centre, rural Scotland is even better. Plus Scotland is a huge race track in itself.

I raced my friend's G8 GT last weekend. The car dyno'd 336whp and something like 364tq. My car should be faster than this but I suck.

nah ignore me man, im just goin crazy cos i aint got no gmod :crying:
dat lunch control
Fart can muffler for less restriction on tarbo. :v
I just run my turbo cars without a muffler. Just a high flow cat and resonator, sometimes no resonator. My GSX, my Talon, my LeBaron GTS, and my CRX didn't have mufflers. CRX would have got a fart can if I had finished it, full stainless catback, but I didn't :v
Love your talon though, Mike.
My trucks exhaust comes out of the headers, goes into a small, un-restrictive muffler, and takes a ninety degree turn out the side. Of course i have duals, you've all seen them.
keep thinking thats MPH on the gauges and im like wat.
Just incase anyone wondered how much a stock #3500 mustang rolls on its suspension with two people in it, here you go. It's me at an auto-x school with SCCA. [video=vimeo;7660348]http://www.vimeo.com/7660348[/video]
And yes, I annihilated that first passenger side cone entering the Chicago box.

Yeah it's my iphone. I have this mount to put on the windshield, sits with a suction cup. I just placed that on my sunroof.

Good stuff, just ordered one for my phone. Cheers!
Better than trying to hold it whilst steering and changing gears :v:

I should take a video of ours. Its not much to look at (it has a blue bumper when the rest of the car is orange and its pretty rusty). Also the carb is a bit messed up so it has trouble running by itself for the first few minutes until it gets warm. Its essentially a work in progress. Still pretty fun to drive.
Pretty old video, I'd like to make new ones but my camera died.

[QUOTE=lemon_lover;31297599]why do alllllllllllllllllllllll honda drivers feather the throttle when they take off[/QUOTE]
Feather the throttle? You mean the couple times he throttles it when it's rolling in the beginning? Pretty sure lots of people with manuals do that, even my dad does it in his '91 Chevy pickup.
Unless you mean something like, when accelerating, feathering the gas or something as if to... I don't know, prevent slipping? Not that it would actually prevent slipping at all but would in fact make it worse.
But yeah, I do the "couple taps on the throttle before taking off" thing in everything I drive with a manual. After pulling the motor out of my Civic after about ~1 year of doing that, the clutch was still brand spanking new, very little wear at all, which is odd, I've always thought I was a bit hard on a clutch, but I guess I do better than I think I do.
I do it to ease the acceleration. It doesn't have much torque in the low rpms. If i just hold the throttle at a steady level, the car will yank when the clutch bites. So it's to avoid stalling and yanking.

Ah yeah, I get what you mean. Understandable, Honda engines barely have enough torque to move until about 3000 RPM. :(
What's the retail on one of those?
More than you can afford pal, Volkswagen.
Smoke him!
