    12.0 is the fastest man at the moment (6speed)
  2. blahulahhh
  3. AHHHHH THAT CAR LOOKS TUFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF
  4. COOL!!!
  5. I have had this for a while so it may have been on the forum before sorry if it has. I could not add it as an attachment so here is the link. http://www.importevolution.com/videos/drm.wmv I have read that this Lingenfelter Corvette also has a 150 shot of NOS installed, what do you think guys 11.5 125MPH or faster?
  6. Typhoon and Clubbie are as goos as each other, and not a patch on euro stuff, even some jap stuff. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Um I disagree!!!
  7. What's up your left nostril Vik? You been sniffing porky's butt after a again? Get a hanky and wipe that "mustang" stuck off your beard.... HPF have been working their butts off in preperation for the summernats... The dyno comp is one of the biggest events in Australia where tuners can show off their skills. And HPF have won it several times.... I'd say it's a fair bet that Rob was burning the candle (no pun intended) at both ends to get his vehicles in top shape for the event, and was more than a little pre-occupied. I believe they achieved the goal again this year, with a 1260 kW effort..... only to have the winning car burst into flames..... a very costly disaster in itself, but more than that, it would also be an emotional rollercoaster ride.... The elation of winning, then the disaster of the fire..... Tuners are human too, you *beep*! Now as for Mick, he chose to travel interstate to get a tune. His decision. He has a problem... Then take it to the tuner to have a look at. There'd be NO complaints about customer service if Mick lived in Melbourne. Rob offered to have a look at his car at the Nationals to save him the hassle of bringing the car all the way back to Melbourne.... ( A bloody fantastic gesture of service goodwill). As it turned out, he did NOT have the time to do that. And with the mishap that occurred with TRYHRD, who would blame him. Oh my God. "HPF must be poor on customer service...." I hear you crying... Give me a break. tom PS... Is this type font big enough for you to read, Vik.... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Blah blah blah blah blah.... All he wanted was a frickin phone call NOOB.... Cant u understand that... Even though someone spent 4 trillion dollors on a CRAPADORE and was at the summernats he still is running a business and with that you need customer service...There is more than one customer at HPF and they need to realise this... My 2 cents worth... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Very well said.
  8. Mate I think you’re out of line! MS700 is being totally reasonable he as a customer is just as important as the next or ANY for that mater. NOT GOOD ENOUGH FROM HPF!
  9. Here here, I wish they would just call a Spade a Spade, we all know that the Clubsport's nothing more than an upgraded Ironing Board, the Typhoon should not even be compeared to it any more. Bring on some URO trash!!!!
  10. I love looking at this.
  11. I love reading about this car as well, awesome project. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Well done Brian your posts are always awesome, so in-lighting and educational, not to mention very well written.
  12. Oh please that pile of crap is not even a 1/4 of a Bugatti, I would not like to be the sucker to try to take that thing to 300 km/h let alone 400. Plus that car never officaly set that top speed it belonged to the Mcleran F1, then the Koensegge cc8r now the Bugatti. Besides its slow

    As I say. If your afraid of the answer, don't ask the question. Running 3Dmark '05 now. Looks pretty good. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Umm im fine. I did not get offended at all.
  14. Yes so true. If you give a Mclearn F1 a head start from 0 to 120mp/h on to 200mp/h and the Veyron takes of when the maca hits 120 it will still beat it from stan still to 200 mp/h. Amazing!!
  15. BUGATTI VEYRON World record top speed for a production car 408.47km/h “Bugatti’s official figures” 736 KW@ 6000 RPM 1250 NM from 2200 to 5500 RPM 0-100 km/h in 2.5 seconds 0-200 km/h in 7.3 seconds 0-300 km/h in 16.7 seconds 0-400 km/h in 55.6 seconds 0-400 Meters in 9.9 seconds @ 228km/h 100 km/h to 0 km/h in 2.3 seconds 400 km/h to 0 km/h in 9.8 seconds Here is a small video 0-210 km/h http://www.leftlanenews.com/2005/12/14/bug...30-mph-footage/ This car is a master piece, it is like no other car ever built, and I really don’t think that in this day and age it is ever going to be beaten. Bugatti are selling them for $1600000 each and are taking a loss of $4000000 on each car. It is said that Bugatti built it simply to see if it could be done. They got F1 help on the cars aero but after 360 km/h the F1 boys said you’re on your own. You see even if a company wanted to build a car to beat the Veyron (and they would have to beat it or their would be no point) they would be faced with the herculean task of the basic research that would have to go into building a car like that. It would have to be an exercise based purely on status and nothing more. The task of keeping 1888Kg on the ground at 400km/h is a tough job I mean a 767 will lift at 300 km/h and be air bound. In addition for ever 1 km/h after 360 km/h an additional 10 HP is needed, that’s easy said then done when cooling starts to became an issue. The Veyron has 6 radiators and two intercoolers, can you image the gearbox and diff heat of the oils alone so its not just as easy as more power = more speed. In this case more power and torque = more heat. Any way I just thought I might share that with you and get your thoughts on it.

    Ok A: Why do you need a raid set up for home use? B: Why not PCI Express? C:The dual core wont be needes unless your running duel core enabled software, or just doing stuff like formating 3 partitions at once. D: Why the slow DVD burner? E: Why so much HD space? you could always just use one for back up and get rid of the raid. Oh and how much did you pay for a SATA HDD im thinking a power load of cash. What are the FSB of that board? COMPUTERS ARE COOL!!! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> A: Why do you need a raid set up for home use? I run a business B: Why not PCI Express? I had the Vid card already. Show me a vid card that maxes out on 8x AGP C:The dual core wont be needes unless your running duel core enabled software, or just doing stuff like formating 3 partitions at once. I have p2p running constantly, I host an FTP Server, I run a business with Accounts/Order/scheduling software ALL the time D: Why the slow DVD burner? I Have a Zensonic Z500 on order. I will stream media to my Home Theatre. I Burn the odd DVD, but mostly Ripping and streaming E: Why so much HD space? you could always just use one for back up and get rid of the raid. Because I can . I have 24 DVD Titles on my FTP, growing daily 300Gb SATA- $215 Each. FSB - 2000MT/s Since when does software need to be dual CPU enabled to take advantage of Dual CPU Cores?? News to me.. You didn't ask why the fast router?????? Because I have a 24Mbit connection!!!!! And I can Download, Play online, Host my FTP - ALL AT ONCE with my dual core cpu, and not LAG OUT Hoo daddy.. Quick B'mark of '05 coming up, then maybe a tweak here and there, And I'll see how she goes.. Water cooling anyone?? It's gonna be a late night..................... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Hahah that's cool I thought it would be for a bisnuss. PCI Express is more for up and coming upgradability and of course AGP is fine that's what I have. I also have ADSL2 24Mb 2000Mhz FSB 200GIG HDD 8MS refresh LG AMD so on and so on As for the duel core I think you will find that multiple applications are simultaneously available to any one, and that a high amount of RAM with a good board and fast CPU are all you need. If a software application is not written in duel core code your second core is not even being used. That’s what I have recently been informed of. But again just like the PCI Express the whole point of getting a AMD is for its 64Bit compatibility cupelled with is duel core technology it makes for a great CPU for future upgrades, you know when software catches up. Im intrested in getting your thoughts on this.

  18. Yhea it’s all cool and stuff, but mate that’s just pure abuse of your car and if the wrong people see that stuff on this forum could give us a bad name. Maybe no speed signs next time a? Those T5’s and the diff’s won’t take that sort of punishment for to long.
  19. So they can publish a rehash of the same sh*te in 3 months with times so they sell another whole sh*t pile of mags. Sorry, l am very cynical towards the Wheels/Motor dribble <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yes I agree just to sell more mags!! It sucks
  20. Wheels magazine ZF 6 Speed Auto BF Typhoon 0-400 Meters 14.0 @ 169 km/h 0-100 km/h 5.9 sec BF GTP 0-400 Meters 14.3 @ 166 km/h 0-100 km/h 6.2 sec Good write up/read looks like the Phoon is pretty handy around Calder Park, kicked the GTP's ass buy 2 full seconds. They say the stock Brembos on the Phoon really dont match the GTP's for power and bite. They also mention that the new 19" wheel and tyer package iron out some front end issues that the Phoon had and now it handels a bit sweater. Now I just have to work out how other people can afford to owen a car like the Phoon, once I work that out I can go and buy my self a Tuffphoon. Man I want one BAD.

    Pc Prob

    Ok it really could be alot of things. for example it could be a simple thing like XP Pro Firewall conflicting with your 2nd PC. Could be auto update config on your software like windows update or an anti virus update searching on line. In all honestly it would be a very hard thing to try and fix in this manner. You really need someone that knows what there doing to sit in front of your network and have a play. Im pretty sure you will find that it is some sort of defult setting with a peice of software your running, if you say it was working fine before you reinstalled XP Pro then its probably a setting with XP Pro . Try turning of the firewall as a test and also disconect from the internet to isolate the problem. (you know make sure its not trying to find an internet site that dose not exist. Sorry mate other than that small bit of info there will really be not alot more I will be able to suggest with out being there or spending 10hrs online typing to each other.. Good luck

    Pc Prob

    I’m doing a diploma in network engineering at the moment I might be able to help. Firstly WOW it could be so many things, ok um what O/S are you running on both PCs? I need more info on you LAN cable is it a cross over cable or a straight through cable (twisted pair). Is the LAN cable plugged into a switch or is it a duel port modem. Look now that I read your post again I simply need more info tell me all that you can about your network. Cabling, Modem, Switches, O/S, software installed on both PCs including anti virus and additional fire wall protection is XP Pro on both machines.
