we took great care of it. The shop was 10 000 sqft and that was the non hoist area where we did the motor rebuilds..

Heres another area of the shop

And this was our front entrance, GT3 behind the 355 Challenge

You know to tell you the truth I just wonder what was done to my car as I bought it second hand and it was refurbished by my mechanic. The original records show that when the car was new it was an automatic with cloth seats. When I bought it had leather seats and it is a standard. The exhaust is custom and straight through. I wonder what else could have been done to it, so it is a beast as it is. It is supposed to be 190 hp, but is far away from that. Do you know this higway to Radium? I drive it and these mountains just move up and down in the windshield as I am flying...

There is very little on the road that can pass me. What can pass me is RS4, 911 only on straight road and this is pretty much it.
I wonder how to check it in terms of computer chips and so on.

I thought I was buying just a used car, but it turned out to be some rocket and therefore I decided to keep it and I replaced almost everything in it but not the engine yet. I never thought I could be so emotional about a car and that ever in my life I would own this kind of monster.

I think of it this way.. everybody does something that is wrong like drugs, drinking and driving, divorcing you name it. My vice is speeding and I accept it.
I'm speechless really...

That race team shut the doors in 2006 as the boss who was oriental went back to Japan... Or so I heard.. There was also more to the story but...

I now practice the step on it, let off, step on it and hope for NAS to kick in... lol

Service advisor! I did help out for a BMW race team after leaving there.. But I wasn't really needed. When it comes to racing now, I just watch and enjoy from the side lines.

wait a second here. Your saying your 1998 a4 1.8t or 2.8 stock is a rocket?

And the only things that can pass you are rs4s and 911s?

After a lot of posts by you i've been wondering how old you are as well?

Ahhhhhhhhhhhh...... As Entertaining as these posts are, the scary thing is, that this guy posts advice in other peoples threads as well. I wonder how long it will be before a ban?
