New guy from Iowa

[DeathStarr89]

Hey all, finally joined up after surfing for a while.

Been into go karts/minibikes since the early 90's, 4 or 5 serious karts under my belt and a hand full of mini bikes along with a few other random projects. Did some racing about 15 yrs ago, won a few, lost a few and eventually moved onto cars.

Currently I drag race an '89 Camaro but my kids are growing up quick and are following in my foot steps. I built them a little mini chopper as a starter, soon we'll have a "family" go kart running with a GX390 Honda that i'm sure i'll spend some time in.


anyways, see you guys around. Hopefully i can contribute some useful stuff to the forum.

Here is the "chopper"...

and the Camaro going down the track;

I'll have to grab a current picture of what's under the hood later on.

one off CNC machined ITB's on a modern GM 3500 V6, HUGE custom cam, hand built longtube headers and a ton of other work. Makes around 350 HP/300 TQ. Working my way down to 12's all motor, mid 13's right now.

I know how to get more power out of it: add two more cylinders

No, seroiusly, they're awesome figures for a 6 Where does it fit in it's category/class?

 

[DeathStarr89]

as far as i know i hold the record for fastest 60v6 N/A F body, pretty sad but it's a fun toy.

Fastest V6 is still a V6

Nice looking chopper
