not true at all

it's still running the Z vq engine, just build up. From what I understand this car started out as a true 350Z

never meant to be hateful....quite the contrary....I really like Vinny and the Rubio's....I "hate" on Xtreme for other various reasons.....

just sucks because NHRA has been boring this season without them for whatever reasons...and going out in 2005 to see Vinny run the ornage 350z was AWESOME..

check out this video I made from the 2005 fall nationals at ETOWN:

Not a Z chassi or body..ITs a tubular frame car with a fiberglass body made to look like a Z..The only thing on that that is off an original 350Z is the doors. This is what you need to do to run some serious times in the pro world. A car like that could cost you upwards of $250,000....
Must be nice to have an unlimited supply of money

this is just my observation.. but from what i have seen and formed my opinion of.. is that he rolls with a crew in NJ that built his Turbo IS... and what he does is.. he leaves negative comments towards other big succesful shops in the area

which is strange to me, because when he crashed his IS into the wall at Etown no one was putting him down or hating on him on this site... maybe on SupraForums.. but i didn't see any hate here
