Hi, 1st post, thought I'd introduce myself. Although we'd have loved a VL to test our street motors we put a RB30 into a 240z street car and over the last few months its gone from a 10.1 first ever pass to a 7.8 @ 175. On the same day we managed the 7.8 we also did three 7.9s @ 176 with all 4 runs back to back. Here's some links: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sukNUm7oEd4 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pLrmXBGTxlI http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T--lORrnjk0 How much do the quick VL boys weigh and any of them comming out with new things to try in the near future? Great site and sorry about my body choice but at least it has a RB30!! Robbie. RIPS Racing, NZ www.ripsracing.com (http://www.ripsracing.com) Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

I just bought the G4 extreme and im hoping its going to be perfect. G4 is awesome, gives us alot more features and the data logging is excellent. I've used nothing but links over the years and I can't find any reason to try anything else anytime soon. Robbie.
