I have no problem using ONLY C16 in my FGT and G. I haven't put pump gas in my GT for over 2 years and drive it a couple times a week to work. Same goes for my G. My G will never see pump gas. Sorry your pump gas argument is silly. Your response proves my point though. [quote=Ziscolp;3667552]

All those especulations about them not wanting the car to break in fron of everyone are as full of BS as you are; to my knoledge the reason why the car did not make it to TI, is because the car is getting ready for SEMA, wich from a business prespective is more important than TI... As for the chute may be you are right may be you are wrong. I can't tell you because of the fact that I wansn't there when they install it, I belive you were, right??? but even if I did know the inside story I would be wrong considering the fact that you are always right... I am allowed to have an opinion. The fact that we have not seen one beautiful high definition movie quality video with the Robot UR sound of the UR Cars getting handled by 3 different platforms further affirms what I am saying. Having the Kool-Aid brigade like yourself and others who do not know jack $ h it about chassis dynamics and such is making it hard for some people to not give UR a hard time. The nutswingers like yourself should just STFU, say congrats and move on instead of bringing more heat down on UR. Many of you are delusional and people like myself seek to bring perspective to the situation. Go to any chassis shop or chassis builder and bring him a printout of my posts relating to improper height of parachute mount and then your comment of "maybe you're right, maybe you're wrong" will be answered by a professional if you do not want to take my word for it. While you're at it you should also call the ECTA-LSR tech guys and confirm that the TX Mile people made some serious mistakes: Why are you not giving me a hard time about attacking the TX Mile people? Oh yea, you are an UR NUTSWINGER!:D |
Looks like Kevins TTG would have been a great match for the LMR Vette.
Would have been interesting to see if it wasn't spinning the tire in the wheel. Also it seems the TTG's were trapping about on par with the T1 GTR. Either way that Vette is fast! |

tell me if you can hear the wheelspin. This was my first round in KOTS. I drove this race just like the others.....all in.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vtSXwUkYcfg I think that these cars reached the limit where the Toyo 888 is considered a tire with adequate traction... Time to go to Drag Radials, at least for these events... |

I think I know what you were trying to say;) I wonder how the cars that actually had traction kept their rims from spinning in their tires. Maybe we should ask LMR, Andy, Mr. Hollywood, and the 2 GTR's how they were able to accomplish such a feat:confused: Can anybody tell everybody else which car eliminated Kevin? Thanks! |

Is that the first time something like that has ever been captured on video? Has such a thing ever happened to a GTT on the street? Crazy! |

That was almost more scary than a RWD drive car losing traction. That driver must have b a l l $ of steel!

I was hoping to see a bunch of GTT's kick ass, Since that was not happening by the end of Saturday, I decided to stay home. :D I am coming to TX2K13 for sure! |
GREAT I can't wait to meet the Internet GOLIATH known as "300" hilarious

:eek: That car is a monster. I bet that was scary getting sideways deep into the 100s. I really would have liked seeing this run against the LMR Vette. I bet it would have been super close. |

My main point was that the turbo Gallardos can and do make 1k whp on 93 octane unleaded, which is the traditional definition of pump gas. |
This thread just doesn't give up. 300, Traction was the main topic of conversation leading up to TI. The advantage that most people assumed (yes I know what happens when you assume things) the AWD cars would have didn't happen. Invincible was not what anyone was saying. The points being made were obviously coming from the history of past events. I'm pretty sure everybody here still thinks you're nuts(not always a bad thing), but it was mainly because of the way you were going about your business.
Now this event is history. Everyone that was there has learned from it. There's a lot of people that got their ass handed to them that now have all winter to figure out why and do something about it. The difference is that this is the first time in a long time that UGR has that same motivation rather than just being target number one. I'm pretty sure if Kevin (driver of the silver TTG, owner of UGR) was concerned about the driveline breaking he wouldn't be doing AWD burnouts to warm the tires up. As far as I've seen none of the drivers or company owners have been anything but gracious. I'm going to assume(again) that the reason nobody from UGR is posting and arguing back and forth is because racing is racing, you win some you lose some. Reputations are built on results, and you only get results through hard work. You've made a lot of good points. Unfortunately they are mixed in with ASSUMPTIONS that are poisoning the well. P.S. I noticed you don't have an avatar so I threw one together for you. You're welcome. http://i1290.photobucket.com/albums/...ps85a88a4c.png PPS Feel free to substitute BENCHRACING for EVERYTHING.:p |

You are pretty much right on except for the beard and 6 pack!:D I might as well go with it, what the heck! LOL! WAR: Bench racing is a whole heck of a lot cheaper than REAL Racing! Right Peter? |
