Okay guys,
Its gone on long enough. Been the first two threads ever deleted off the Airspeed forum(I'm sure Geoff can confirm). Cars are worth whatever you pay for them or care to sell them for. One mans junker could be your treasure. Your opinion. My bmw might be frowned upon or whatever and I can think its the most solid car in the world. Who really cares as long as your happy.....
Make the bad man stop.
and I'll go on and be happy and have 175 streetable hp that will still get 20MPG and not need constant tuning.....
Love ya'll

-

-
Good for somebody to have the insight and the brains to actually walk away.

yeah but my 175 hp will kick the sh!t out of your 175 hp :D
-
damn right danny!
-
Okay danny boy
I will take that challenge.
And do it cheaper.
A year from today you and I can drag race and if you care have a back road burn. Loser will buy a steak dinner and a case of whatever malted beverage they fancy
-
take it to the track, next street legals at mission, none of this back road redneck stuff, were into racing not spending quality time in dark alleys......
-
Hey Kirin, you keep talking BMW. Isn't this an aircooled VW site?
-
Hey Super K, U should go pick on someone your own size on a import site. I would hate to see u go broke spending all your money on prime-rib dinners until u found a bug owner that was nice enough to let u win............. ;) :lol: :lol:
-
Kirin........this is not going to be good dood.
-
If you love your BMW so much why don;t you change your avatar?
-
i like steak!
consider it a challange!
now.... lets lay down the rules....
-
why wait a year, lets do it ASAP, next street legals!!!!
-
next street legals at mission, none of this back road redneck stuff
i agree. racing is for the track, not backroads.
as for this thread and the how-many-others like it.. kirin your mouth's writing cheques the beamer can't cash. let it go dood.
-
OH BOY! Another pointless regurgitated garbage thread!
I'd like to see how this one plays out! :P
-
lets not get sidetracked
lets lay down the rules...
since we are doing this next year, i assume that your going to need this time to modify your car
does my car have to be the same? cause i was planning on doing some mods anyway
is this a bracket style race? heads up? one race? or best of three....
any power adders or naturally aspirated?
-
doesnt matter Danny, he's never going to beat you, he would have to show up at the track and race first. I say a year just gives him time to make up an excuse to get out of it.
-

Ahh young Kirin...
I don't know you but as an older fellow, I feel I must chime in with a saying my father told me so long ago...
It is better to be silent and be thought of a fool
than to speak and remove all doubt...
-
no no, from what ive heard those 2002s can haul ass if done properly
ive got no issues with kirin, every time ive met him hes been nice,
but that grudge match is too good of an opportunity to pass up
git er done! lets race!
-

as long as either car isnt over 175hp, you should be able to do whatever you want to it.
-
the problem i see is that i dont know for sure exactly how much power my motor makes, i estimate it at around 175 at the flywheel, but i wont be able to tell unless i decide to plunk down some cash for a dyno session )(aint gonna happen) maybe we should just do a balls to the walls heads up race....
-
it doesnt matter, the challenge has been made....
its in the club charter...
\" any DGLVK member challenged to a race must put up or shutup \"
this rule was of course initally written for James but it should apply to all.
-
On that note.Danny I would like to race u for holiday pay! :P
-
fine, we race tonight, my beetle against your beetle
if ya dont show, we can put my name on the office door :D
-
Danny, I don't think right now you are 175 Hp so You should have no problem, Look at the Dyno results on our site to give you an Idea. Jimmy remember the old saying
\" Don't count your chickens before they are hatched\"
Not saying you are not going to dominate at the track just saying,\"shit happens\" and you can not afford to double danny's Vacation pay. ;)I only talk from experience..... :huh: with that being said...Kirin taking on danny right now is not a wise choice since the young lad has dialed in his DGLVK Machine.... B)
But you keep up that E-thug persona you have going on... [_[
And Matty.... Get back to the BOOKS!!!!! :wub:

K Danny
I need a year to do a motor,tranny, diff swap along with a lot of body work. I'm cramming in a baby six. You can do whatever you want to your car. I don't expect to win but it doesn't mean I won't try my bestest. And I don't condone street racing. Just a street segmant where we see whose car is more streetable and who knows an apex from there ass.
last time I checked I owned a 62 beetle which I love dearly. I am a aircooled owner like it or not.
-

I'm tryin sumthin new.....
-
Change is Good Matty ;)
-
and who knows an apex from there ass
lol, who said anything about corners???
is that like me turning around at the end of the track and seeing you still trying to finish the race?
:P
i have no doubt that your car could kick the crap out of any aircooled vw that i throw at it on a road course, but last time i checked street races and mission dont really have corners.....
-
Fair enough...
I'm completly for the mission segment. Note though how I never guarenteed that I would beat you.
So lets bring it!
Next mid september the Dannyboy/Kirin challenge.
-
Actually Danny I have pictures of an Aircooled Beetle kicking the crap outta everything they could throw at it in an Autocross race. It was a guy from the states; drove a lowered 15 window pulling a trailer with one sweet ass Autocross Beetle on it. It was years ago but I'll see if I can find the picture I have of it going INTO a corner at over 45Mph. Perfectly level and not sliding. Don't know how he did it but he won 3 events that weekend. He was up against everything from an Austin Mini Cooper S to a done up '82? Scirocco.
Keep in mind this was back in 1989.
-
i could enter a corner at 45 mph....... on my roof :lol:
