Liquid Assets Report post Posted February 18, 2014 Man.. My palms are sweating already thinking of import and kill mode.... Hahaha like everything in life, after a little while you will get the butterflies to leave and palms to dry up and you WILL want Moar Powa! Its a horrible addicting disease. Don't get me wrong, it would be near impossible or even asinine to ever get comfortable with 1800whp but like I said, the thirst for more will always be there, lol. Especially after an event like TX2K. Can't wait to hit the TX roads. 3 weeks. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIPPERTT Report post Posted February 18, 2014 You guys are going to have a blast at TX2K And Liquid is soooo correct... The Powa is crazy addictive Just an example.. Here's a buddy of mines car.. One of several Nitro cars he used to own and drive..he is out of the game as of 06' but his wife would get mad and throw timeslips to the ground if he didn't run over 300mph in the 1/4 Lol He has withdrawls from the sport kind of like how we all have when away from these street beasts. He really misses the sport and the performance of the cars. Cannot wait to get him behind the wheel of my car Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIPPERTT Report post Posted February 18, 2014 I cannot imagine it either.. Every time Bill talks about his racing career I am astonished at what he has seen and experienced. He mentions you get out of these cars heavy breathing.. almost out of air .. you hold your breath involuntary during the pass. Crazy shit!

iBoost Report post Posted February 19, 2014 Hey Dustin, what is the drivability like with the 2R? Which clutch setup did you go with? Is it smooth or jerky? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liquid Assets Report post Posted February 19, 2014 Hey Dustin, what is the drivability like with the 2R? Which clutch setup did you go with? Is it smooth or jerky? I asked him about the clutch but he doesn't remember. Only sweaty palms and butt cheeks is the memory he took home! And fear, lots of fear I believe... lol Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

duhawks Report post Posted February 19, 2014 0 problems unless it rains... Every time I get some work done to a car it rains... Always happens. I put about 7k plus miles on my bolt on that had 700s. All at the track, DS, and half mile events. 1150 is a bit more but nothing too crazy. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It appears, ALL the local guys that picked on you when you only had 700 at the tires, are about to get one HELL of a wake up call ...

Lamboperth Report post Posted February 22, 2014 Congrats! Am I the only one that thinks the look Dustin has w/o the Superleggera stripe looks cleaner? I like the 'clean' stealth look, if you ignore the 'underground racing 'logo lol. Congrats dustin on the build of an awesome beast. With all that power may I ask what tyres- make and sizes you are running on the street? I am assuming that you have not tried launch control yet? cheers, john Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
duhawks Report post Posted February 23, 2014 I'll write some more tomorrow but damn UGR is like the fantasy factory!!! Rode in a few cars. I literally couldn't eat much at lunch because I was dizzy from riding in a few other 2rs. That mixed with 1 hour of sleep. And then drove my 2r 6 plus hours straight to down town Atlanta in rush hour and then back home. Burned 2 tanks of gas lol. Bet I did 30 pulls at least on the way home. Would have been 300 but there was traffic. You don't realize how fast 1150 is until you let off of 5th and people are miles behind you and 3 seconds ago they were right behind you. 0 issues. Runs better than stock. So damn crazy because I have 1800 hp on tap. Just amazing. I had a modded Evo roll up next me asking to race. No joke. I think I put 3 exits between us. UGR really knows their stuff. All I can say is go to their shop. Will take you 1 second to realize why they are the best in the game out of any platform.
