School zones add HP and driving ability to any car with a wing and/or turbo

edit: that is why Brian O'Conner topped out at 140mph, he wasnt racing in a school zone.

This would also be a great time for me to deal some controlled substances. School zones are a great buyers market too



If my sarcasm detector is working properly, I take it there were some losers out last night being dumb...???

maybe the thread got closed...but that guy sharkbite who spent upwards of 40k at AMS went to dyno his car at Pruven, where he put down ~450whp on pump gas. The other dude with Buschur clone car put down 620 on pump. They raced and Sharkbite's AMS car got man-handled.

There was some controversy going on with Buschur telling Sharkbite he could tune the car to atleast 100 more whp on pump - but AMS had offered him a 2 year warranty if he never had anyone else tune the car.

Buschur and AMS traded a few punches about the different philosophies of tuning - whether running big boost on pump gas to make lots of power was a safe thing to do. AMS said it was too unsafe and would not tune customer cars that way. Buschur says it's perfectly safe and cited a few daily driven pump gas 500+ whp cars.

This was the argument Al was sarcastically hinting at the entire time in that video...

true. i guess no one can argue with the 620 whp pump evo that is putting the smack down on everything in sight but just one bad tank of gas could cause things to go awry.

making that much power on pump gas is cool and all, but I don't really see the point - might as well get alcohol injection or race gas at that point - you have tons of $ into the car anyway, what's a few more dollars for insurance?
