Totally off topic but my buddy with his 600whp Ariel Atom was getting stomped lol. There are some retarded fast cars there. I have no business going other than a spectator lol.

My buddy owns the first Texas built TT Fast Intentions 370z. It's pushing a little over 600 on a stock block and E85. I'm sure he's having a blast at this weeks event.

Wow what a nightmare for the lot of you

I read through this whole thread & my was it interesting, especially the videos from Joe's wife. It's sad to see this type of stuff happen, but it is best when we as a community do warn others.

My dealings with GTM were pretty good when it came to my oil pan. It might have been the fact that I showed up at their door to pay & pick it up back in Oct. And to read that Mike left is not good either.

Reading through all of this, having seen their shop & seeing how things are being handled now, I think Chuck has been correct of his "liquid funds" assessment. Chances are GTM is circling the drain & picking up speed

I wish you all luck in getting a solid resolution to this mess

Where does everyone get this magical 550whp limit? I would not run my car at 600whp daily but I think it can take it as a hot tune.

Yes, I can find out, but hadn't seen him lately. That sucks to hear. We do have one of the best VQ mechanics in our area though.

Meh, my car is alive and kicking like no ones business.

Did my first oil change at 2000 miles today. Oil is clear and non-fuel smelling, thinking about sending to blackstone, but with the paper towel test(filter pan oil through a paper towel and check for filings), I was metal free.

So I know I am sitting pretty.

Back to editing vids for my review....and selling OEM...ugh....
