I just bought a new TE-44 turbo, 60lbs injectors with matching TT chip, 3" downpipe, 3 new autometer gauges, new HO fuel pump with hotwire kit, alky injection, new Auburn posi unit and 3.73 gears and a whole wack of other stuff for the T-Type. Should be easily in the mid 10's with all the stuff. I can't wait to pull up to Z06 vette and spank his doors off Thats some seriously nice stuff you got there!! CONGRATS!!

Congrats looks awesome! ;D Any suspension work? Mine's quick but, only in a straight line. The first turn and, the Z06 would kill me.

lol no suspension work yet but that will all come next year. These will be the only things I buy this year as we are starting our basement again in a week and money will be going towards that. It's ok though, for now beating my friends 2009 Z06 in a straight line will be good enough

lol Don't worry, his is all stock That viper on the other hand is one bad ass ride!! The best part about people here is most have never even see an T-Type and have no idea how fast they can be with a little work. Make for some nice kills. Although I have been beaten by a pontiac 6000 lol ( he had a 4.1 twin turbo crammed in there) man that thing was like a freaking rocket!!!

I've had my ass handed to me by a Pinto. lol However, it had a V8 stuffed into it and, a blower out the top of the hood ! Talk about rockets. I prefer to eat Mustangs. ;D People do like my GN, either they don't know what it is or do and, want to check it out. Sometimes, it's a little scary. People will pull up asking me to pull over and, these days it makes me a little nervous. A crowd always seems to form around it where ever I go. IMO, These cars are true diamonds in the rough. BTW, Rich nice Viper, I hope all works out for you.

They always have events going on there and there's all sorts of cool cars cruising to & from the track, including GN & T-types. I don't really mess with those guys (unless there's a few turns involved ) cuz you never know what they have packing underneath the hood. ;D

Not as exciting as stereo or car stuff, but I am having my wedding ring custom made by Sonia Beauchesne from Quebec. I wanted something different. She is custom mixing some slightly copper hued 18KT gold to the textured portion of the ring. The outer band will be 18KT white gold vice silver.

Well, I'm not sure about all that fancy talk Bob.....but glad you enjoy my style ;-) My work bag has seen better days, so I just ordered a satchel (man purse) to carry my crap into work. I could always use it if I get a job with the Pony Express: I love the stuff Saddleback Leather makes. VERY durable and rugged products to hand down to your children.

I could always use it if I get a job with the Pony Express: I will say i'm not really the murse type of guy, but this one is pretty nice looking. Very Indiana Jones'esque lol Rich, Off-topic but I gotta say you always have the NICEST things. You never seem to really get anything "Cheap" lol. So why Emotiva? You obviously could afford something "more premium grade". I just wonder because you don't seem to hold back with anything else

Bigred- Thanks for the compliment. My purchasing philosophy has always been to try and get great quality and style without paying BS snobby prices. Emotiva seems to fit that bill for me. Some things I don't mind paying for as long as it is very good quality.
I've never had a murse before, but every time I come to work my hands are too full. Laptop, iPad, glasses, keys, cellphone, paperwork, etc.........I needed a satchel.

I know cycling is not very popular among hard core audiophiles - there is no room to put decent audio system not like car or motorcycle ;D But since I've caught "cycling disease" it's not just shaping my body but my purchases as well... So there is the latest one: Selle SMP saddles 100% hand made in Italy. Before I was trying quiet a few saddles from San Marko, Fi'zi:k etc. Fi'zi:k Pave CX was really good to me, but few days ago I stumbled across this web site: www.roadbikereview.com/cat/controls/saddles/sellesmp/PRD_403984_2509crx.aspxWell, I ended up in LBS today "test driving" those saddles First of all it's really that good/comfortable! Another thing, I would say it's "manhood friendly" which could be an issue if you bicycling a lot. And build quality, leather etc. is just amazing. ;D ;D ;D
