pics?

 

My 1800cc goes faster than 150 mph trap speed

 

those numbers do seem odd dont they

 

it's a real drag car..
tube frabe/chassis, rwd, skinnys up front and all

it's like 17" longer in the front or something..

got the 17" wide tires on back.......

 

expected trap speed 250mph, not 150

 

150? thats for kids

 

I think out of all people, you would know. You need to post more in here.

art

 

that dude is freaking very smart

his website has some kick *** cars on there.
he has a 1 liter mr2 turbo at 30-45 psi that ran 180s at bonneville

and some ferrari with a turbo that looked lke the diameter(case) is in the 10-14 inch range. pretty dam big

 

dood what's his webpage?

 

jus found it

I try to, but I'm always at work man![

 

I know Bob Norwood.

I been to his shop many, many times. When I went out for lunch with him he told me all about that integra, then he let me sit inside of it and help put all the stickers on it.


I learned ALOT from Bob Norwood. Alot of the things I do, come from experience I learned from him.

That integra is real. The chassis alone costs in upwards of 200k. because its made of ALL Titanium inside and out.

The motor? Simple. It will run on Nitro-Methane, and the turbo's it has are larger than your head. The exhuast from the turbo's is a good 4-5 inches in diameter...and you guessed it...I think its made from Titanium also.

The transmission on it costs about 40k alone. It also has a solid Titanium case on it that can withstand tank shells practically. (not really, but its rediculous thick).

I could go on and on.

The car is a work of art. Bob Norwood already holds so many high speed records of all kinds, its no wonder he wanted to show the import world what he could do.

When that guy retires, it will be a sad day.

he is a "Phenom" and a living legend.

The real thing.

I could go on and on....lik the 1,000 Hp Ferrari i saw there last time...STREET CAR.

That runs probably low 9's as it sits.

LOL rediclous guy. I love that guy.

ahha.

The chassis of the funny car is chromoly, not titanium. The frame for the body and the wheelie bars are titanium. The chassis is a prefabbed chassis (don't remember by who) that was narrowed a bit. It doesn't cost anywhere near 200grand though. We will start running the car next season, but obviously for exhibition only. Kenny will be driving it and I will be working on it. Should be interesting!!

 

Not to talk ****, but there is nothing import or Honda in that car. Still very Impresive

 

yeah ok.....
the emblem is!

haha prolly not even that!
it was glossy red!

 

It's a turbocharged 4 cyl. That is why it is considered an import. I do however see your point.

 

the bodies are basically all the same anyhow, just slap some different headlights/taillight graphics on it and u have urself a different car. yeah its goin to b an impressive showing but its a FWD car body w/ a RWD chassis. i think ppl see the $$$$ figures out there and have no respect for the beginnings of the import scene. if it came from the factory FWD it should remain FWD and same goes for RWD vehicles. stick with the roots, forget the politics and $$$ behind this sort of crap.

 

hey jeff, i though his shop was in texas? did he move out to la?

some of the stuff he did to that mr2 is simply amazing, seems like he just thinks stuff up as things get more difficult to find more speed. that is a truly awesome hp creating brain
