Okay, that confirms the Dyno is in the shop.

Now, to take it to the next level, lets see a video of a dyno run, preferrably one with a SB ZR in it!!

We were at Vinny's over the weekend going over our mods. Some pictures I took.



I see the open house coming very soon; an opportunity to know the best about our cars from the best of the best

I am glad you like the pictures of the new VTR boutique, Thanks

Visiting with Vinny's was mind blowing, to say the least; as you always come away with extra knowledge. When I first met Vinny, he said to me that there is more to performance than just strengthening the bottom end, adding boost and fuel. The key is keeping the power where it should be; at the top end. I came away a little closer to understanding the VTR philosophy and concept, this weekend; the role of cams, its control in the top-end power/performance equation.

Like many of you I am anxiously and eagerly waiting for the grand opening at VTR

We sound like hungry, snarling wolves ready to be let of out of the cage.

I can't wait.
