Lets See Your Ride

[VampireTooth]

When it's paid for if everything goes well I plan on dropping one of these into my pickup.

Both are 2002 model years, the SS and MX-5 are both slightly modded but more done to the SS. Both cars have 3 sets of rims and tires and the MX-5 now has new that I have no pics of yet. I am thinking about ditching the convertible and buying a Mercedes though currently.



Wrong location, should be under show your ride but I stopped and restarted and ended up hitting new topic instead of reply to topic, my apologies.

My speedo. 1st pic is cruising along.2nd pic is when a WRX wanted to run me. 3rd pic is me backing off after the WRX chickened out when he heard my Super Charger spoil up. Kinda hard taking a picture and driving with one hand at 100MPH.

So you use MPH too?

[Dieselman]

Well I am in the USA so of course.

It seems that not many are willing to break that 100MPH zone although so long as not endangering other motorists that is where the real fun begins. Hopefully responses here without a pic (since it is already done above) is not an issue.

Never said I wasn't will to break it Tweak. I go over 100 MPH a lot. If you read what I wrote it clearly says "Its hard to go 100 MPH with one and a take a picture at the same time.

[VampireTooth]

Tweak, someone lied to you... We have trucks that break 100mph. Dieselman being in the field, I'm sure he can tell you that a well tuned diesel can push past 100mph with proper transmission gearing. I don't mean anyting crazy like 160Mph though.

Jeep built a Grand Cherokee that does just over 150mph and people are pushing that hard.

You dont need to tune a Duramax to get it beyond 100 MPH. Stock my Duramax hit about 125. With all my mods I can hit around 150. I tend to drive my Grand Prix more since its cheaper on fuel. Lat time I filled my truck up it cost my $150.
