so depressed

went out and hung out with some of the faster street cars. Everyone seemed to be running around the 700-1200 hp mark. While were setting mine up for 800 or so. Just so depressed watching all these cars and have nothing to run. Been so busy at the shop and other things, there seems to be no time to work on our personal projects.

/end rant

You'll get there...most of those guys probably had someone else doing their work for them so their cars are done much quicker.

At least you have steady work and can be stashing cash away. I have the opposite issue, alot of time but no huge reserves of money so it's gonna be slow going for me too.

LMFAO!!! Dude, just think about how offten these cars even grace us with their presents. For the most part it's only seasonal for one, and if it just happens to be up and running during that time period as well. Average nite the top cars are in the 5's....Just stay in when the cooler weather comes around and claim your car doesn't react well to the cold

Seems like 700 is the benchmark anymore. Amazingly considering 5 years ago 400 was good !

the kb gt isnt all that fast. I mean it barly beat a car that was running 7.30's. So its maybe running low 7's. If were talking about the same one. Black gt with Finest Performance on the side. Sams lexus rides the fuck out as well as the blue tt cobra.. but from what I heard from mofo it was having a boost leak issue.

I dont see how your comparing a 1/8 mile race to a roll race, thats neither here nor there. That kb gt is a decently quick 2v its not FAST but its not SLOW!
