Oh, is that so. Brian, care to chime in, cause maybe I got it wrong? Just curious to know why Garage17 is saying that he has done it before.

For Gods sake....Brian mentioned to me that under NORMAL driving...(as in I drive like I was 45yrs old in my Vette)....as soon as he touches the gas and he reaches 2700-2800rpm....INSTANT 7 PSI of boost. If I do that in our car, I'm still in vaccum. Brian does not have that luxury because of the High flow of the motor will push it up that high even if you barely touch the gas. Kenny had mentioned to me one time that his car Revs Like a GSXR motorcycle, and that you can not give first gear no more than 15% input, otherwise your hitting boost.
That is a lame excuse. So what your saying is that Kenny can not tune it because it's too aggressive? There is no excuse if he is such a remarkable tuner with the e-manage.

If shots where not taken, and snide comments where not made, there would be no drama between us. Truth be told, I do not have any probs with him, just stuff he says and tries to get away with.

It would be nice at the shootout if there was at least some decency, and little respect for each others set ups, I have been involved in racing a long time and I know almost everytime I was at an event everyone tried to help everyone else out. Now dont get me wrong when it was time to line em up...it was all business, and you had to bring your A game....and afterwords there was of course...the usual ribbing on your performance...but it was all done in fun....so my only suggestion would be to check your egos at the door cause NONE of us are professional racers here, and while everyone wants bragging rights its still about having fun,.....at least that is how I see it.

They would need another tC first. Or do they still have the one they were selling?

Get away with? Hahaaa...What the heck do I have to "Get Away with" persay. Dude, if I really wanted to let you know what I thought, there would be a massive Histeria on SL. And I'm not talking about you as a person. As I don't know you as a person, and neither do you know me as a person.

Besides, what you care what I think anyway?

Honestly, I don't but I do not like people talking ish behind my back. Where I come from, that's a If you have something to say, just say it. Let it off man. Speak your clout! Can't be any more histeria than what you stir on a regular basis.

It must be the truth about the tuning..

I still have the blue tC right now. We have some projects we need to finish first. I'm actually closing on my house next week so my finances have been somewhat haulted. As far as the other cars... The Skyline doesn't come out for a bit but I already have one of those coming in. I'm thinking of just keeping the car for a few more long term projects.

Anyway, back to the topic at hand (original post!).

I know there's bickering between both Travis and my boy Paul . I know you guys don't dislike eachother personally, but certain things should and shouldn't be said on forums. Travis please be more mature with some of your comments.

Maybe we'll try to show at the shootout?

not to sound like a complete idiot, but when and where is the shootout?? I know I won't be able to get everything I have planned for my car done, but why not head out and have fun :D

Besides, I have to see these other quick tC's out and make sure I am taking the right steps in my build.

One last thing, more vids of the beast on the road! A few pulls would be awesome!

Behind your back? I guess I'm jut the big bad bully. I'll talk it to your face, makes me no different. Have no problem telling ya what I think when you ____ me off good enough. But I'm getting bored arguing with you, so I'm done with the conversation as far as me and you go. And for the record, I don't make crap up or as you put it...."A Lame Excuse".

Isn't that what I just said a couple of post up. I said I would just rather remain professional than to say what I really thought. So, I was trying to drop it.

Sounds good then. We'll just drop it, we'll keep this professional, and we'll all get back to the topic at hand.

Thanks man!
