I think in his last life he was a dominatrix, I think that must be a hard personality trait to over come..... Yes I am rather confident it must be .... Don't be fooled by that smiley face..... Next time he is in that trailer trying to sleep, I am going to pass every Porsche in sight..... and video it so someone will beleave me.... 163 mph will look sane...:crazy:

For you we offer one time good deal. "FREE" but only for one night.

We enjoyed having you joins us Bob it was a good time. You are welcome to come along and ride in the trailer...... We are going to try and blog it this year. It is hard enough just doing it let alone trying write about it on the fly. Trying to type on a laptop while driving a 7 down the road is a bit of a chalenge. Cheers 7evin

You are so right Robert. I guess your wife ejoys driving your 7? My wife loves driving the 7, She is flying out to Texas just so she can drive Mojito back to Ga. I told her I have the trailer I'll just haul it. She want to drive it.... Its nearly a 1000 miles. I guess I'm stuck driving the truck. Cheers 7evin

Can we wait till after the one lap to do this ??? Last time you did this we were doing a 30 min. diff change in the middle of the one lap.... :ack: I see this kind of stickiness as us on the internet looking for more diffs.... I love ya man, but you are the most expensive bitch I have ever known..... I don't mean to call you a bitch..... Yes I do.... Man I am going to have to divorce your ass if you keep this sh#$%t up.... :d :d You are going to drive me to Prozac..... You have no idea what it is like having a mad scientist/ speed freak as your best friend.... (L) Go for it Kev.... You can pass that Porsche..... He is only running 163...... (K) But Loren what about the fenders won't they come off at that speed?..... (L) Don't worry about that they make too much drag anyhow..... Truth is I was probably running closer to 200+..... He has most likely detuned the speedo so I don't get scared He keeps me locked out here in this Garage 20 hours a day..... (HELP) Some times all I have to sleep on is a creeper Haven't seen my wife in weeks..... He says she is ok...... Well at least he lets me surf the USA 7s site...... I guess its not that bad..... :d :d

I would say BS also, you take one look at these cars and you think its cute, but fast? No way. All I can say is when WestTex gets a wild hair to build something fast, it is usually unbelievably so. I didn't even bother to look a the speedo memory until he told me he was running 163 when I passed him and wanted to know what I was running. Hell I have seen 125 mph indicated with WestTex in the coffin durring the one lap.....:7fume: Just joking Loren....

This is the same guy (Loren) that has cut a perfect light many times.... I have never cut a perfect light. He tells me how but I have yet to do it. As far as fast goes, At Road Atlanta last year Mojo sqeaked out just over 175 mph between turn 8 and turn 10a , She was quite motivated after being laughed at by a driver of a certian Porsche GT3 RS.... He didn't think she should be in the class with the Porsches and Vettes. There was not much laughing going on in the porsche pits when we came back to the pits. He was only running 163 mph when we went around him.... He said she looked home made..... I said I prefer to call it hand crafted, He laughed.... I bet the next time he see's a 7 he thinks twice before he passes judgement. Cheers 7evin

Hey Dino, Man I would love to. That would be a total blast. I will be at the NASA Time trials at Texas World Speedway this Fri, Sat and Sun. Shaking the car down for the one lap. I know its short notice but if you can make it give me a call. We are also doing the Ultimate Track/Green Car Chalenge again this year. If you want to go let me know. Maybe we could load both cars in our trailer and take them togather. Other wise it will have to be run-n-gun. We are hoping to bring both new cars to this race.

Smart Move all the way around. The STI diff will serve you well. Please make sure you post pics when you get it. You are going to love that thing. Cheers 7evin

I understand, I just love the thrill of the outside edge of the envelope. passing GT3s at 150 plus. They never see it coming. You just can't explore what these cars are capable of safely on the streets. I know every time I go on the track that it could happen. But on the same hand I don't go blasting through bridges at high speeds with the car all loose. Cheers 7evin

Looks like he stabbed it just a little early and clipped the wall with the left hand front wheel which pulled him in. Man not the place on that run to try and make time. I would have probably been in first gear and had a spotter. What amazes me is that he only said fuck 1 time.... I'm afraid I would have not been able to reserve myself to just one ...... the next 15 min. would have been one long bleep.... When I hit the wall at road Atlanta I wanted to throw up.... Cheers 7evin

WOW ! So many awesome photos. I don't think ours can hold a candle. As you all well know 7s stick to the road like glue. So trying to drift one can be quite the feat. My buddy Loren is always up for the impossible. 07 One Lap: http://www.usa7s.com/aspnetforum/upload/1067080785_Resized_oloa-2007-11al0353.jpg Here he is doing it with one hand...... I think that is a Texas thing. I should put some horns on the front for him. http://www.usa7s.com/aspnetforum/upload/320437912_Resized_oloa-2007-11sr0713.jpg I was just hoping we would have enough tread to make it to the trailer....:7fume: http://www.usa7s.com/aspnetforum/upload/1139813591_Resized_oloa-2007-11sr0706.jpg Coming down the front stretch in Indy. I think the radar gun stated 143 mph http://www.usa7s.com/aspnetforum/upload/1161918366_Resized_oloa-2007-09sr0018.jpg Again in Pueblo in his usual 110 % mode..... I'm surprised he isn't holding 1 hand up..... http://www.usa7s.com/aspnetforum/upload/2083118989_Resized_oloa-2007-07sr0573.jpg Me in Utah http://www.usa7s.com/aspnetforum/upload/1044392160_Resized_oloa-2007-06sr0211.jpg Feeling really small, but thats ok because I'm hauling A%^& http://www.usa7s.com/aspnetforum/upload/1478600815_Resized_oloa-2007-06al0258.jpg Action shots my fav.

POWDERBRAKE : Tire ripping lets hope thats all... I can handle buying tires BOB: We went to a R180 diff from a from a STI vs the WRX R160. We also built an additional cross brace in the car for this diff. RV-4MIKE: The color is from the 07 Dodge Daytona Sub-Lime. I love it with black. Wow I would love to see a pic of an airplane painted with it. Any pics ? WHEELS: 17x8 fronts and 17x9 rear. Team dynamics racing competition series. http://www.teamdynamicsracing.com/competition_wheels.htm My buddy Loren found them. He is doing his S2k in sun burst orange and black with the same wheels. Should be a knock out. Cheers 7evin *Side note: I like stainless, bolts, nuts, washers ect. I have tried to use them and grade 8 in the car exclusively. Do not use them with out anti seize. Because they will and you will have resort to a die grinder to get them off. Sorry Loren I did not know you were online.

Mondo, I have not seen pics of your S2K build, Have I over looked it? Would love to see it Cheers 7evin

We put just over 80,000 mile down. I think I'm still tired from it..... But its kind of like sex, Even when your tired its hard to turn down. We have tried to cover every base and improve everything, trying to foresee failures in advanced. Part of what has taken 6 weeks of 18 hours days dedicated to just working on this thing (700+ Hours. Kudos to my beautiful wife for tolerating me being gone for so long. I just hope it pays off and we run fast and failure free. Thanks for the encouragement. Cheers Kevin My Wife drove from Ga and brought us another motor and trans. She stayed a few days and helped before she went back . What true love looks like. 4 a.m. She couldn't take it any more and fell asleep on a creeper... What a doll... Could not do this with out her and my buddy Loren. http://www.usa7s.com/aspnetforum/upload/1739096362_pics 013.jpg

Thanks for the input. I took about 35 hours of editing to make the video. You sometimes wonder if anyone will even watch it. Thanks for taking the time to watch. Cheers 7evin If it can't kill you, it ain't a sport...

If anyone is interested I have posted our 07 Racing season Promo video. I would be interested in your thoughts and input. Cheers 7evin

Videos of Mojito on the dyno http://www.usa7s.com/aspnetforum/Default.aspx?g=posts&t=2310 or and Dyno Results. http://www.usa7s.com/aspnetforum/upload/1980908262_E85.jpg Come to find out today while talking with the engineer at Rotrex they sent us the wrong pulley. The new pulley should give more HP at a lower RPM and a little over 15 psi. We shall see. Cheers 7evin

I have spent time on the track and on the street in this car. It is nothing shy of awesome. It is the most solid 7 I have ever driven. Fast is an understatement..... Boys need not apply.... This is a mans car. 7evin

So... You love your 7..... Me too... Fast, fun, corners like its on rails..... I'm with you. But can it be beat by an old VW type 2 van???? No way !!!! Watch and weep as this VW type 2 passes 7's 911's elise's and just about everything on the track. THE MOST IMPRESSIVE VW I have ever seen... http://www.race-taxi.ch/ Race-Taxi in Anneau du Rhin 2007 (avi, 17MB) Cheers 7evin

Here are a couple of videos of our recent dyno pulls On gas and on alcohol.

What it takes to do under dash work on a 7.. :jester: http://www.usa7s.com/aspnetforum/upload/1113813982_pics 016.jpg http://www.usa7s.com/aspnetforum/upload/64515422_pics 017.jpg http://www.usa7s.com/aspnetforum/upload/1992141370_pics 018.jpg I hope I got the pins for the O2 sensor correct.... and not upside down.... I'll post the Dyno results when I get the files converted. Cheers 7evin

Hey Guys, Just got back from Dallas after spending 2 days on the dyno and hanging out with Kenny Tran. For those of you who do not know him, He is the Jet Lei of the import tuner world. Races a 2.4L Scion that runs 60 psi of boost and approx 1200 hp.(8.1 sec @ 181 mph in the 1/4) He doesn't know the exact HP because his dyno can not handle that much HP. Very humble and very bright guy. Kenny working his magic. http://www.usa7s.com/aspnetforum/upload/223995895_pics 022.jpg We are short about 2 psi of what we calculated for the E85 fuel. so we have to hunt for the missing pressure. As a side note, when he finished tuning the car he asked " what does this thing weigh ? " I told him and he looked at me wide eyed and said "WOW this thing is going to be fast! " Then he said I think I might have to get one of these. I warned him that it was not a good idea.... Of course he ask why ? I said you will lay in bed at night thinking about twisty roads that you can't wait to drive it on.... I am going to take him for a ride and close the deal..... Cheers 7evin

Looking Good. They are almost as fun to build as they are to drive. Cheers 7evin
