3. Even better than having a chuckle at you when you post about my car is getting FREE TIRES! They arrived today. Brand new set of Kumho V710s. Got them for winning my class at the Colorado Pro Solo and finishing second at the Colorado Tour event.
4. You have no CLUE what the difference between steady state lateral G and peak lateral G is.
5. You think an MR2 is gay? Look at the similar Gs being pulled by Miatas with similar set up. Or maybe they're all lying too.

But I don't want you to stop. I love it when you post this stuff. Makes you look like a tool. And not the sharpest one in the shed either!

If you want a number to compare to what you read about in magazines, I dunno, probably 1.1. Maybe 1.2. Which is still pretty amazing for a very nearly stock MR2. It's all about tires. They do those magazine tests steady state around a circular skid pad on street tires. It's a different deal. It's not intended to measure max anything. It's intended to be repeatable. But... why do I try to explain this to you?

Take care,

Ed

You're stoned.
It reminds me of all of those 1000HP Supra's I've sent home crying to mother.

Oh, and BTW, Camber & caster aren't modifications to true car builders. That shit is for dreamers who read to many magazines like you.

Damn, I bet a new Vette could pull 2 G's...with an alignment...LOL!
Go away you Fag.

BTW, I don't think you know what a "tool" is. If you did, you would BUILD something cool.

For what it's worth to you gear heads.

Cops never caught me in my '70 Chevy pickup with a 350 mill. Cops never caught me in my '65 Skylark with a 300 CID HP mill (nail heads rule).

Hell, they couldn't even catch me when I drove a '58 Chevy Delray with a 235 six. Even outrun a Vette with that rig.

All the Fuzz had was 427's, 429's, and 440's.

Best I could tell, either they had no confidence in their abilities, or they were afraid of death.

Oh yeah! Well you're gay! Take that!

Bet you didn't see that one coming.

No, I'm sure you're right. Every autocrosser on Earth is making it all up.

So, tell me. How many runs on R Comps have you done? I mean, you know so much about it, you must have thousands. Oh, what's that? Never even seen a set? Four of them cost more than your car?

Yeah, that's about what I figured.

I couldn't give a rat's ass if you think I'm a "true car builder". I mean, where did I say I was? Having said that, I am building an autocross car right now. Rebuilt the engine, short stoke coil overs. I had to learn to weld just to do those struts. Ton of other stuff, but not a lot of fabrication. I'm building for "Street Prepared" which is pretty much a bolt on class. Why am I explaining that to you? You know all about it, being the autocross expert and all. I'm more of an autocrosser than "true car builder", whatever the fuck that means. But if, you know, if building a car counts, then, yup. I'm a car builder. "True" or otherwise.

By the way, alignment may not be a "mod" to you tunrz, but it sure makes a hell of a difference. But I bet your Chevette is plenty fast.
