Unofficial Summer 2012 Indianapolis TRU Motorsports Meet Thread

Adding to the claimed power of 670whp......just remember that doesn't mean anything unless he can get that power to the ground. Have you seen him run it? If he is pushing 670, he should be able to at least keep up with Gabe. He wouldn't win, but he wouldn't lose by a mile.

Curious as to what all he has done that he thinks he can get 900 out of a K series

Photoshoot / Video shoot / Be at TRU this Friday shoot.

gabe runs slicks, this guy runs street tires. on stock rims so like 7 wide. he said hes gonna get slicks on wider rims.

also, gabes car is prolly 1-2k lighter.

Gabes car weighs just under 2000 pounds. Theres no way an RSX weighs much more than 3000 lol

And Gabe never ran slicks last year. Haven't seen his setup for this year yet in person

he runs street slicks.

Kip is getting a bigger turbo, going to E85 and some other things. I have seen the video's of him running. that car is hoooooly shit.. He raced this foxbody Mustang that was talkin mad shit about imports. Vince told him Kip was only running on 6 lbs of boost lol.. The foxbody I think had like a 407ci w/ nitrous.. I saw the video Vince took of the race.. Kip's car looks like it accelerated faster than a Lambo. just annihalated the mustang..

Then Kip raced a Mach1 last weekend.. Im not sure how that turned out.. I think Kip is looking to built to around 750hp not 900. Im pretty sure he said he was at 650whp not 670

We would all love to see him race Gabe.. Would be a very close race

that mach 1 was toast, it was cammed and llike 150 shot on the mach1. and kip and him were neck and neck before he hit boost and he was gone

He speaks of teh turbo lag yo

Derp one facepalm shall be giving back for you

You guys both fail. See ya this weekend herp a derps

brandons truck isnt gonna be running =[ we had a couple setbacks... engine didnt go in today, the flywheel is missing teeth and we have to try to figure out which flywheel and order it. plus they gave him the wrong waterpump.

but quintin u should come out next weekend =]

I'll be out probably almost every weekend from now on unless Im out of town.

Are you guys going both Friday AND Saturday? If not which days for sure?

i will make an appearance each day after work weather permitting. we arent 10% about him yet tho, i told him when he gets the truck going take some time off on a saturday because it seemed a lot busier.

no the herpa derps will stay on your side of the table thanks.. Rolling start, Turbo already spooled, what turbo lag? Boost is constant after take off.. It doesnt magically "kick in".. This isnt mad max



and if they were "neck and neck" already racing, that turbo is well spooled and producing power.

before he hit vtec

Fixed


and Fridays will be my main day out. Saturdays I may make an appearance for an hour while im omw to work, but it is random when I will actually make it

pretty sure he not gaining a ton of power at like 3k rpm. in the vids u can tell when he hits vtec and the turbo is spooling loud as fuck and his tires spin

"Turbo lag is natural.... It's the time you experience less power until the turbo speeds up and provides boost... if its an issue of too much lag... it could be many things.

The only set up without lag, is a twin turbo design."

i found that searching, which is what i was thinking it was, i could be wrong tho

two words.. brake boosting

what is this crazy massive turbo v8 horsepower drag race you guys speak of??

Indy.. not surprised

what are you on about?

if u want to know cruise out to indy one weekend lol.

otherwise its kinda like fight club.. rule #1 never talk about it

First official summer night at TRU was pretty decent. Huge showing (comparing last yr to this year)



Josh you should have stayed, but I understand your reasoning.


Ready for some northerners to come down and have some fun. Last night we saw a supercharged civic sedan, GTR, Underground Racing Gallardo, Multiple swapped cars, a super clean 8th gen civic sedan on white RPF1s, a couple other slammed 8th gen civic coupes, the usual cobras, novas, and other various muscle cars, as well as the jeep crowd. Interesting night!

be there soon!
