why bother? let him think what he wants. He is better than YOU... thats what u NEED to understand. internalize it. He owns or has owned SEVERAL supercars and a tesla plaid... he looks down any anyone who modifies a working mans car and manages to outrun something he bought., he thinks a tesla plaid outruns anything anywhere, he honestly believes this....... you are a pebble on this guys shoe. There are a couple of these guys in every group. One brainless twit said i brought "little dick" energy when i even mentioned racing a supercar or tesla plaid with a motorcycle... go figure. Gotta wonder ewho has the small dick now dontcha. But i kinda understand it... they look DOWN on motorcycle also. they think its unfair.... lol.. imagine that. its unfair!!!!!!
You definitely don't help your case with your rants lol...

That Vette looks SOOOO much better without the gay wing. Imagine when ppl start throwing power adders at it smh gonna be hard to beat.

But a stock GT500 is pretty freaking slow! Just like a stock Redeye is.

Bro, there is a 600 lb weight difference..... 600 lbs! Thats a LOT. 60-130 times are pretty close between the two depending on who was driving.

I have trouble giving this one full credit...we are talking about 2 cars with at LEAST 10mph between them in the 1/4 mile roll racing and it's that close? FBO on an NA car will not explain it.

I smell some juice flowing in this one...spray on the vette is my guess.

So are you going to build your car, or what?
yes... trifecta just unlocked the ecu. i emailed them about how to proceed but they arent taking in any c8 work just yet. but i promise its right at the front of my brain. The cheapest turbo kit i found was 10K......... ill figure out a way. more fukin overtime. Truth be told.. i have zero CC debt and a 30K limit on the discover. maybe.. just maybe soon. Its alot of money to me...... alot. I would like to drive it for 7500 miles anyway just to make sure i dont run into any tranny problems before i go tinkering. These c8s did have some tranny issues. The clutch blew up in my mustang at 5000 and ruined EVERYTHING inside the bell housing, sprayed fluid alllll over everything. ford fixed it though under warranty.
