??????? just wondering who was the first person to create the lsvtec frankistine

 

i dont know who was the first one but i know that john brown had a hatch back in late 99-early 00 with an ls/vtec. it was in a hatch and it went 12.40s all motor with full interior.

 

I believe it was a guy named Steve Rothenbuehler that works at http://www.omnipowerusa.com// He used to work at Speed Image when he first put it together, then later worked for Skunk2 and Dynamic. This was back in... '96 or '95 I want to say, maybe after that, you'd have to ask him-- I think he's Omniman on H-T.

 

i thought it was Dr.Charles

 

some say Omniman and ive herd others say Tony Fuchs... ?

 

i heard Fuchs was the first as well, but will we ever realy know?
i do know a friend of mine had a ls/vtec in his hatch back in 99, and he got the idea from talking with Dr Charles..

Mike..

 

Omniman did a writeup on this in the tech forum or something. I'll post the link if I ever get around to it.

My LS/VTEC was built right after that Green Hatch that went 12.40's
