    I own a 2023 Ram TRX. Stock, in good air it can do a 3.9 0-60. I haven’t modded it yet but plan to shortly. Larger blower, injectors, pulleys, fuel pump, cooler will put it into high 10’s easily. The best part is the short block, tranny, etc can handle it. That’s 10’s on stock 35 inch tires...

    Amazing times we live in now. You can buy 9’s with a chute off a domestic showroom. My truck with bolts ons can run 10’s. The only good thing from the modern world we have lol

    Standard Modern Series 2000

    I should add if you lived anywhere near the abandon railway bed in frankford back in 1994 sorry for the noise lol. I was always on there on my 1993 RM125. Most times we would be up in the Marmora mines though.

    Lathe I bought before I joined

    It did not come with a 4 jaw. Luckily it’s the same D-1 mount as my Standard Modern and I bought a 4 jaw for it so perfect fit.

    Lathe I bought before I joined

    Just looking for the you sucks even though I have owned this for a year or so. Have not even ran it yet lol. Could not pass it up as it was literally at a school less than 1 km from my work. They auctioned 4 of them and I almost bought 2. When I bought my 2000 series Standard Moderns years ago I...

    Car designs suck

    I know what you’re saying. My issue is someone stating a mustang will blow up at max hp in a few mins and that is completely untrue. A modern high hp car/truck can put out max hp all day long. A heavy truck isn’t making/useing max hp once up to speed just like a car or truck so not sure the...

    Car designs suck

    Guess you have never been to a racetrack? As much as a non Ford lover I am I do not believe they all blow up in a few mins. Would be some pretty short road races…..

    Car designs suck

    Anything in this day and age can be replicated with aftermarket gear. That said my 702Hp 2023 Ram TRX makes its own magical sound that the 70’s has NEVER even come close to. Underpowered vehicles do not sound good except possibly at idle if cammed. I grew up owning carbed V8’s and loved them at...
