[Darkstars]

Whats going on, I've been here a while but never really posted much... (19 posts in almost a year). I'm 21 from Wheeling (arlington Heights/buffalo Grove area) I've been working with cars for a couple years, I worked for BMW in high school, went to school went to training through Audi, worked at an independant shop for a about a year and been with VW for about 2 years now. My dad had lkots of health problems when I was growing up so usually he wasn't able to play basketball or toss around a football or anythign so hed bring me with to car shows, thats how I got into all this. Dream car is 71 Cuda hardtop. I did all the work on my car other then the trunk install (by soundzplus) and paint (by body werks). Anyways... onto the car. We'll see if I can work up more then 19 posts for this next year

-Best official 1/4 mile time was a 13.08 @ 106.3 mph, that was all the bolt ones, cams, 100 shot, on race gas and drag radials, and letting off to avoid hitting the top speed governer (108 MPH). back up with 13.12

[Tall Kyle]

only cavy i ever liked. wanna race?

[Darkstars]

only cavy i ever liked. wanna race?

its not as fast as it used to be, couple hundred lbs of stereo + 18's + got rid of a couple performance mods = no more 13.08's hahah (pulley had to go because of stereo, cams and TB had to go because 170 miles to a tank of premium on a daily driver was making my wallet hurt )


but thanks guys

[Tall Kyle]

170 damn u lucky. i get like 5 mpg on my car

[Ken96z]

damn you homo your everywhere now lol

[DooD]

....because 170 miles to a tank of premium on a daily driver was making my wallet hurt )

Pffft 170 per tank?
I only DREAM of that kind of mileage...

[twekd306]

i DREAM i get 100 per tank..

[Darkstars]

4 cylinder that normally gets 400+ to a tank down to 170 per tank while driving like a little girl, just so it would go fast (not that it "fast" but it was quick) was not worth it to me considering most of the time when I'm in my car its to and from work in higway rush hour what the point of spending all the money to go faster when it was rare i got a chance to use it anyway

[Bad00SS]
