New Daily Beater

[93 R-Code]

My x-mas gift to myself. This is my first “new” GM product and the only practical vehicle I could find that still goes like hell. It’s really fun to drive but Chevy has this thing torque managed to death (glad to see ford isn’t the only auto maker doing it). Some tuning should work wonders.

Message to Ford:
If you would have built either the Adrenalin or Lightning concepts I would not be driving a GM product right now.

I like those.

It's also faster than I thought. It ran a 13.7 with a full tank.

I made two runs with my g-tech, 13.7 and 13.8. I didn't know what to expect, was shocked myself.

I dunno if that is all his mods i'm assuming it is maybe some PCM tuning but i'm not sure. And his is 2wd too.

Nice truck though, i don't like the price tag on them which is why i don't have one.

Hey, I like your reasoning. Chevy = beater.

Nice new ride, got any pics of the R-car that I can drool over?

Don't get me wrong, I do like it. Actually the more I drive it the more I like it. I've never been that crazy about GM products (at least since the Buick GN and GMC Syclone), but I was ready for something different.

Oh I know, I'm just teasing. But hey..you never answered my question. Got any pics of the R-car?
