    Zach, did u roll your fenders to put those tires on? A friend of mine had a TII, and he said anything wider than 255 would stick out.

        that is about the absolute widest tire possible to get on the car without rolling the fenders

        the tires sit within 1/4" of the subframe..... and do stick out the fender a little bit, but we checked and when the suspension is fully compressed it just so barley clears the fender....

                              What do you guys think? Should GM warranty out a new engine for the Douche Bag? If i was the dealer i would prolly not. Seeing the car has 8k on it and no tires left.........SUCKER!!!!

                              Understeer is when you hit the wall with the front of the car
                              Oversteer is when you hit the wall with the rear of the car.
                              Horsepower is how fast you hit the wall
                              Torque is how far you take the wall with you

                                Ive heard the kid actually threw a rod. (push rods are for tractors haha). The kid is a pretty big hick but that car is ridiculously fast. Its not the 5.7L LS1 its actually the 6.0L LS2 That they put in the vettes. IT should be a 12.5sec car w/ a perfect driver. Dont get me wrong i dont know this kid and im not too much of a muscle car guy but sometimes you just gotta respect the roots or were cars evolved from.

                                  Uh, hey dumbshit, the rod they are talking about is the CONNECTING rod. Every fucking motor (except for the rotary) has one.

                                    and push rods are in alot of stuff other then tractors.

                                    I would lover to see a stock GTO with street tires run 12.5.

                                      This is probably the worst fucking forum on the net you assume to quiclky. I had heard he fucked up a pushrod, and yes i know how a motor works and i know what a connecting rod is also. If you read my post i said w/ a perfect driver it could do 12.5. This kid isnt mentally capable of ever going that fast so there it is. I was just trying to be nice and give a little update of what ive heard and then you turned my words around.

Its not the 5.7L LS1 its actually the 6.0L LS2 That they put in the vettes. IT should be a 12.5sec car w/ a perfect driver. Dont get me wrong i dont know this kid and im not too much of a muscle car guy but sometimes you just gotta respect the roots or were cars evolved from.

                                        6.0L GTO's are NOT 12.5 second cars.

                                        3800 lbs plus a suspension that is horrible for the drag strips means mid 13's for these cars, maybe a low 13 if you are a really good driver.

                                        EDIT: And this coming from someone who has two pushrod engine cars, one supercharged, one nitrous.....

                                          Cool i dont mind push rod cars. Its sweet that you can make it go fast or anycar in that case. The only point of my post was to tell the people on fargo street what i had heard about this car. Yes in my haste to post i said threw a rod instead of F'D up a push rod. I just dont see the reason people E-Thug so quickly. I made a mistake and its better so correct me than say insulting things. Unless your the kind of person that making fun of people on an internet forum makes you feel better about yourself, BTW we are on the internet.
