Just got my Sept issue and what's on the cover? RoadRace's 1st gen!!! Just thought I'd share this cause I don't see too many DSM's on the cover of mags very often. Good job guys!!!
 
hell yeah man when i read this i went to get my mail and sure enough there it was
 
SCC, Budget Badboys

"Stil Fast" pg. 65

"Look sideways at the 4g63 and it will make more power."


.....that's great. :thumb: :thumb: :thumb:
 
did you guys read the article? it has a fp green, dynos a little over 350hp and only runs 13.5 in the 1/4

btw. it did that on a stock fuel pump. WTF?!

I wonder who the guy blew to get on the cover. I run that time with my 14b.
maybe I can be on next months cover unless I have to blow someone.
 
yeah i was reading about that guys setup and thinking oh my god im doomed all that and only a 13.5??? they go on later to say he should be in healthy 12s now. everyone should pick up the issue,its got a turbo omni, and a mirage making 411 hp that runs 13.5, got traction?
 
wheres the omni from? i know a guy arround my place that has spent 30 grand into restoring a GLHS and said he expects to run 12s.

Well, how big an advertisement do you plan on buying in the magazine, and for how long?
 
I'll have to pick this one up when I see one at the store. Only other time I remember seeing a DSM in there is the one with all the "Sleepers" with the white GSX... I think it was anyways.
 
best magazine cover i've seen for a dsm was the sport compact one i think and it had a gsx lined up against a corvet and the title read the cars that hunt vetts and vippers at night LOL that was a tight cover.wish the green machin was on that one. ROFL

I saw that, but I dont get it, mind explaining? :coy:
 
OMG

You mean to tell me that SChondaC finally featured a 4g63 powered car? What is the world coming to? Yet still they seem to try and discredit it with the FP green, etc. only running 13.5s. :notgood: I used to like the magazine, way back in the day. Same with Turbo mag. Well, at least Maxim hasn't let me down, yet.

What's wrong with fat chicks? :nono:
 
Is it Scot Gray's car? The black 1GB with gold wheels? If it is, that car ran a 12.5 or something similar at a USCC a while ago. Maybe the 13.5 is a typo?
 
Scot Gray ran 11s last time I checked. His car has been in the Ultimate Street Car Shootout or whatever for the past couple of years.
 
The problem I see is that since those mags are directed towards the "cool tuner kids" in their tricked out civics/etc... you say you can run 13s for 3 grand and every idiot will buy one. Expect an increase in 1gs with aluinum wings and altezzas to follow. :D
 
Idk why everyone is making such a fuss about it being slow or not getting a good 1/4 mile time. I mean, he made 350hp with the stock fuel pump and 660s (i hope he had the injectors in there). If you ask me, thats pretty damn good. There are people that cant even hit 300 with those mods or more even.

As for SCC sporting the "cool tuner kids" attitude, i dont think that is the case. They are probably the only magazine right now, sept for maybe Modified Mag, that DOESN'T support the "cool tuner kid" syndrome. I mean, have you looked at SuperStreet lately? In my opinion, SS went down the shitter about a couple years back. Now they look like a Maxim/Stuff mag instead of a dedicated car magazine.

Because the FP green is a proven bolt on 11 sec turbo.
Because 13.5 with 350hp is flat out lame.

I could give 2 shits and a #### less that he is on a stock fuel pump. That is just his own stupidity. And the fact that this car is even in a magazine (let alone on the damn cover!!!!) is why everyone is making such a fuss.
 
hmmm...............the owner of a company that makes wideband kits running an FP green on a stock fuel pump.

****note to self**** don't buy wideband from this guy.
 
he needs to just buy a new fuel pump...what, cant afford $200?
