Gotta love that 400hp tone. Sounds kinda like a cooling fan . . . .now all you need is 2 500hp turbos to make a whopping 1800hp with stock internals cuz 2 x 3.14 minus 16 carry the 1 plus the circumfrence of the moon equates to 1800hp

It may "appear" to be the sound of a cooling fan but in fact it is a secret, new type of supercharger designed by yours truly for SCCA racing, the turbos are coming soon!

Talking The Burnout!!!

As promised, here are the burnout videos I said I would post. I think this ZX still has some power left in her. In the "burnout 2" video I am at 3,000rpm till I look at the dash then I take it to 4,000rpm...since I put on the K&N the car will power brake easier. I hope you like the vids.

It may be one tire fire but there is a good amount of smoke....one day, ONE DAY, I will get an LSD R200. Oh and it was so fun to do.

nice vids thxone, you should put down bleach, it makes better smoke, and lots more too, so you need tires or what? and keep on peg legging it!

Thanx guys......I thought about using dish soap, or bleach or even water but the car doesn't seem to have a problem doing the burnouts anymore and the only thing I have done to the car was that PVC pipe and K&N filter....I do need, well want new tires but only because these are the wrong size, they still look new though even with all the one tire fire...s.
