awesome....the more i look at them the more i like street fighter even though i wanted to get a red r1 as my new bike.  that or go back to the toned down best v-twin ever made(the TLR1000) the SVS1000.

street fighter all the way for urban riding. That bike is sick. I would personally be afraid to ride it without at least frame sliders. Looks heavy though.

SIK, the R version is my dream bike.  I'll probably end up getting a 750 around the end of the year, not quite as powerful, but a helluva lot cheaper.

yama, he's mentioned a Chevy truck before, could be SIcK DuraMAX.

Nice ride. I like the wheels. It seems like everyone has huge wheels these just for show.

Nice!!  What kinda numbers are ya gettin out of of the Dmax?  People underestimate diesels way too much.  I've seen Dodge 3500's burn all 4 rear tires to the belt without a problem.

When I launch in 4 wheel drive I can spin all 4  :o :thumb:

Right now its dynoed 533 rwhp and 1070 torque.  Not going to push it much farther than that right now until I can pull the motor and build it.  Quickest time of 12.9 @ 104 right now. 

After the motor build, well.... twins are in the cards :D Can you say 800 rwhp?  8) 8)

kickass man, so now i know the meaning of your name, err username LOL ive been a diesel fan for a long time. its amazing what those things are capable of. and what they can haul without destroying their fuel economy too :bowdown: :bowdown: :bowdown:

Post by: spc on July 27, 2008, 08:18:21 PM
HAHA!  Spinning all four tires coming out of a light next to some jackass in a riced out civic would be hilarious :icon_twisted:

There are tweaked out MB E320 diesels out there putting down 600lbs/ft+, those things embarass the hell out of stock 'vettes and the like.
The Audi R10 if nothing else will definitely help to shed some media limelight on just what exactly a diesel can do.  The reviews out so far all say that the on demand power is just incredible and the sound is one of the most unique exhaust notes out there.

I'm sure you probably saw this build on Xtreme 4x4 on Spike.

That truck was bad! 

...one of the locals has a Ford F-250 (?) turbo diesel.  I'm sure it's been at least mildly modified.  You may or may not be a Ford guy, but just speaking in terms of turbo diesels, I love the sound.  I don't care if that turbo whine wakes people up from time to time.  I think it sounds awesome--besides, I'd sleep through a tornado.
