Ahh! A thread about cars

I'm a bit of a horsepower nut. I don't think you can really have a "best of" cars as soo many people like so many different things.

Personally, I like obnoxious V-8's with tons of power. I'm a straight line racer and there's nothing quite like putting around in a fuel injected 1300 HP car that runs on pump gas. Not a whole bunch of street cars out there that run 154 mph in 1320ft at 8.85 seconds. There's nothing quite like being on the edge of losing control in something that's uncontrollable. Hard to explain, but I'll probably die in a creation of mine someday.

Ford is bar none my brand of choice. Pretty cool to take a factory SUHICKY (SOHC) block and be able to make that kind of reliable power that I could drive to and from the track. I usually take off the parachute mount for the street though.

Basically I can't own anything that's factory or stock. I grew up with welders, mills, presses, and a shop full of tools being raised on a farm. So fabricating metal and working on the farm machinery (then my own vehicles ) was normal. Now sorting my time between work, games, and cars isn't easy. Thankfully I'm not a fan of sleeping or watching tv lol.









Anyone else a car guy? Post up some pics!
