RE: Worlds Fastest Car Challenge!!
i dont remember saying that you couldnt do something, what was it? if you'll look back in the magazine of the speed challenge, you'll see the "green machine" it had clutch issues, well this year the same person is going at it again, if you look in RCZ long enough you'll find last years details so dont call me a liar, if you wunna talk to him, his AIM screen name is SpEEdchaLLengeR, discuss it with him

Whatsup Apollo? Miami, Apollo isnt lying. Im the one hes helping. Just because he doesnt show pics doesnt mean hes a liar. Yes, ive got all the machining tools to do it, and if i dont, ive got a friend that runs a machine shop. I dont wanna show anyone cause i wanna surprise em. If you really want more info then just talk to me on AIM. Apollo already posted it. So no need to post it again. Also miami, stop acting like a jerk towards apollo.
Later,
Brian

Can we at least see some outer pics?
This thread is about the challenge and if your gonna enter might aswell post your cars without detailed specs. I really doubt you can steal much idea from a pic or two. Plus isnt it gonna be in the magazine anyway?
Also anyone know if the supercharged rotor dragster is entering and what classes are there?

The reason I dont want to post any pics is because I dont want a bunch of negative feedback. (which theres is alot of on all forums. Especially this forum.) So dont bother asking for pics. There has already been negative feedback about my car not even exsisting. Thats just one more reason no to show anyone on the forum.

The supercharged rotary dragster is not entering. Its more of one of those "I think I can I think I can, I did it" projects than something to break records.
FTS, I think I heard it all when it comes to negativity about my cars but I really dont care what people think. But when I say I have something whether its capable or not, I will show you that I do have it and that on paper it is very capable, its just up to that particular person to actually come watch it run to make them a believer. All Im saying is that until I get the video posted (which Im working on) I can prove that I do own a highend 21 powered, very low geared 1/10 scale car. Thats all we're asking for.

That vid was actually taken with a digital pic camera, not a vid camera and thats why its only 10 seconds or so long and no sound. The one Im working on now has sound and a radar gun and about 5 passes. It'll be a little more enjoyable to look at.

Faster, you are a man after my own heart!!!!
I am a machinist too, and too bad i dont have the money right now to build a 100MPH car [][][] or I would be in that competition too. Good luck with your machine and dont let the jerks who say going over 100MPH cant be done. If I can be of any assistance, PM me.
Again, GOOD LUCK!!!!!

A Fiberglass body??? Cool...... Definatly durable. Good thinking, never thought of that one.
P.S. Nichrome wire does wonders on foam.
