7 & 8,

Haha!

Those are all great. :lol2:

Good stuff lol

hahaha, yeah thats sweet.
but....
Those are probably just the flamethrowers you attach to your exhaust.
Cause there's no way on a duel exhaust system all 8 cyls would be letting that much out at the same exact time.
and if it's not duel, then one side would have to go through a muffler and I dont think it would be flaming as much as the other.

Cool looking though.

hehe

thats great

you arrive somewhere before you leave? yeah thats pretty quick.

Yeah thats a little bit to much HP right there.

the only time you can have too much hp is when your car falls apart when you do the 1/4 mile.

7,8 17, and 24 are great! They are all good, though :)

when a honda beats you cause your tires are still spinning back at the light.

^ :nono:

That's a picture of a Ford Pinto doing a burnup - oops, burnout - right?

If i recall correctly thats a Renault

Ever seen a Chevette with a 350? That's waaay to much hp!

Saw a Chevy Vega once with a 427 full race stuck in it. Also had a buddy who put a Mazda rotary engine in his Hoda Civic.

Ah just enough HP to make it to the office before rush hour traffic kicks in.

Those are all funny indeed but I don't know what I'd think if I saw a picture of my car taped to a state troopers dash.
