Good job buddy, glad to see the car sorted properly and kicking a**. Glad to see the run is 2 shift and 100% genuine...lol..

 

lol!..I agree, no underwater runs! lol!

 

And no sequential box...

 

.................

 

OMG KPG and Jean see eye to eye LO J/k
mark

 

We are tight!....Although we do agree on your greatness

 

if it wasnt for ur crazy box i wouldnt be doing this lol

 

Now imagine a run underwater and with a sequential gearbox!!

 

Dearest Jean, I know you follow these 60-130 very closely so I am sure you know that most of the times run on the East Coast were underwater! Relax, I believe Scott is better equipped to handle the water than nost so do not be concerned for his safety. Not sure why you have such a hard on for the Driftbox, especially since you two have so much in common..... being that you are both cheap tools that are mildly entertaining Be good my Euro buddy.

 

I am not concerned about Scott's safety, I know he can take care of himself. But, KPG, are you calling me a cheap tool?

 

What part of that didnt you understand...Just in this thread you are referring to Scotts run as bogus in some way, you have made yourself the arbiter of what is 100% genuine concerning number of shifts. All the while you have a 100-200km run posted in your sig with a sequential box. You spout your BMEP formula as gospel, yet the modifications that throw that formula out of whack you have Zippo data on. Did you research the effect of Scotts heads on the BMEP formula in the lab? Did he give you flow numbers and cam profiles? Kevin

 

The only thing scarier than Mark and Scott's times is this sign here

 

The part that I did not understand is the one that you didn't make any sense writing. You did not answer my question, but I will assume that you did mean to be insulting, rest assured I will not go down to your level, at least not on a public forum.

If you tried to have a slightly broader vision, you would have probably finally come to the conclusion that I have the same engine builder than Scott, and that any good result for Scott or Markski is a great satisfaction to me and a confirmation of my good choice of builder, from 10 k miles away.

You really need to get over the Euro complex that you have, my education comes from your own best universities, work for American interests, pay US taxes, and have more than half my family living there and they are all respectable tax paying American people, oh, and three US children that are as American as you are (or more), is that enough US affiliation? Afterall your car and 9K RPM crank also are "Euro", aren't they? You really need to stop discriminating based on citizenship (or race, or religion, all the same), one time is ok, but time to stop now don't you think? I am debating with you in your own language, despite it being my 5th. language, can you do better than poor Euro me?

If I see a run that shows underwater altitude, and tweaky speed line and weird shifts and long Gs, I say so, and I assume that the run might have a problem, if you don't like it, tough luck.

This has nothing to do with Scott, unless he chooses to take it personally.

I never hid the fact that I ran a sequential gearbox . If I wanted to play macho man with a 60-130mph run, I would simply run a 1.5 Bar boost with larger injectors and I am set, I never ran my car beyond 1.18 Bar, I will not take any chances in 120F temperatures since Todd K. lives so far away, and it might put my race season at risk, for what, internet bragging rights?

As to BMEP formulas, what part exactly you don't understand? They have no relationship to acceleration times, they are just a maximum peak number. If you would like to have separate discussion on this, I will gladly do so.

BTW why do you keep speaking on behalf of Scott, he certainly does not need you to..

 

Dearest Jean, great response but it doesnt say much. If you consider an off hand remark to be a personal insult, toughen up. I am discriminating because I called you my "Euro " buddy....you mean you are not Toughen up and dont be so sensitive. Todd Knighton is your engine builder...get outta here, really. You still didnt answer the basic question that started your whining. Why is a 2 shift 60-130 100% genuine? Because you said so. You definately take yourself much too serious.

 

I think you did great in this latest post, good job. :: lol!

BTW , what a tough guy you are!! When I grow up I wanna be just like you.
