Re: LT1 Wrangler For Sale in Arizona (repost)
Me thinks Sammy's life was highly exaggerated. The 3.54 "pass" was
supposed to be at: http://www.santapod.co.uk/ Like where is this track
record???????? Jets don't instantly accelerate, not even in your dreams.
Watch the military's best.

Re: LT1 Wrangler For Sale in Arizona (repost)
Bill, I've come to the conclusion that you just don't get it. Let me break
it down for you, and I will type REALLLLLLLL SLOOOOOWWWW so you can
understand what I said. I will try to emphasize the important words so that
you can see this clearly.
"Now, I'm sure _"IF"_ someone built an unlimited jet car based on the
newest jet technology, it _"MIGHT"_ be a different story"
Neither one of us knows what a jet car WOULD be capable of using whatever
the most powerful jet engine is out there. I don't know what it is, and I
don't really care either. I was trying to make a point that the jets used in
these cars are USUALLY some older technology. I mean, for ---- sakes, I
pasted a link in a previous post that showed a TF car .3 seconds quicker
than a jet car, and then did the math to show that the TF car would be about
132 feet ahead of the jet car based on a speed of 300MPH (just for ease of
calculation, but I will figure it out for whatever speed and ET difference
you would like), and yet because you're in such a hurry to make it look like
you know everything about everything, you argued with me, even though I was
agreeing with you. Me thinks that you just like to argue, and personally I
have better things to do with my time than argue with someone like you.
