LSM I could not agree more! The most I'm willing, or can afford to spend is around $5K to $15K. With all the products out there to choose from and nowhere to shop them that is convenient I'm just guessing. bottom line is I'm looking for the biggest bang for the buck, that is reliable with good service both before and after the sale. I just want it all! Also I think it would be great fun to go and witness this dream event of mine.

Tyson,
With the Promotive Turbo, you'd blow everyone else away
You really got a nice car there!!! I'm sure Wilbur will miss it!
The great thing about the TT is you can spend $15K and have one of the fastest TT's around.

Nope, cat doesn't have my tongue. The truth is when truly invited I will be there. I have loosely heard of many shoot outs and nothing has really come about it. I was even trying to tag along on one of the R&T shoot outs. My understanding is they will not be doing that this year. At any rate it is expensive and takes time to do. Don't get me wrong when the invite happens I will have bells on

Steve,
Watt and Wilber have been baaaaaad influences on me regarding Turbo power.
I wanted to see Wilber's Turbo go to a good home, so I figured I would take the plunge in lieu of the GT3.
I really like the GT3 a lot and believe in its balance, but I got an offer I couldn't refuse.
How can you say no to 700hp?
So my new mission is to attempt to make this Protomonster handle like a GT3.

Congratulations though, sounds like you got yourself a helluva fun car.

How do you like your Savage? I have a Monster Pirate and a T-Maxx, but I am always looking for something new. Is that a hand held starter? How fast?
Sorry guys for changing the subject.

NOOOOOOOOO....
You mean that's all you could afford after selling your TT
Probably out accelerate my TT for the first 100 ft!
Better give me a test drive or I'll run you over!
