1000hp garage anyone?
« on: March 18, 2009, 12:29:19 PM »

I heard this line from a guy when I was just a wee lad, he had bikes and cars.  So few though, that they were all in the 4ish car garage attached to his house.  An old porsche, an audi, something else, quite a few bikes, 1 was even a wankel I think.  All classy, some speedy, every one was dear to him and it showed.

I told myself right then that someday, I would have one too, 1000hp in my stable, all with charisma.

At present, I'm only at 500 total in my 2 car garage ( car, truck, 2 bikes ).  I better get going!

Anyone have 1k+?

damn... i'm not even close! 

250hp... once the race bike is up and running... i'll top 300hp

73 cb350f an honest 35hp
92 zx7r a dyno'd 126hp
88 ex500 a possibly generous 52hp but i'm hoping for more like 55hp
and an srx6 at a hefty thumper 40hp

race bike hp to be disclosed at a later date.   8)

For every 20 amp circuit in your garage, you can add another 3.216 horsepower.  Multiply the available wattage by .00134 to get the horsepower conversion.

1255 for me right now. 

More after I build the 934 racecar with my brother, (though I'll only count half that one's HP since it'll be a shared toy.  Not counting that one at all now.)

Pretty happy vehicle-wise, but will likely buy and sell some.

I only saw 1 pic online.. look up Korecki Pro Mod.

 Now I did mean a doorslammer by car (recognizable as a car), and it is running parts that I built for it.
 So this 4000 hp, is it a doorslammer, will it fit in the garage?

Even if I counted all my electric drills etc I wouldn't be even remotely close! Ofcourse, I have a large d!ck so I don't need to over compensate!!  ;D  ;D  ;D

Dennis

PS actual count would go something like this:
98 CBR - 100'ish
80 CX 500 - 50
1998 Escort - uhm....90?
2003 Chevy Venture minivan - 145 or so?
So I am not even close to half way there...

So, because petrol is sooo cheap in the US of A and you can run monster engines that drink juice all day long, I think we should exclude four wheels and run this only on two wheeled contributions - levels the playing field for those of us outside the US who have to sell our grannies just to buy fuel!  ;D

 Couldnt count on both hands, how many  boats around here that use more than 500 bux in fuel for an afternoon..


 There is a snowmobile here in town that has at least 400 hp.. :o

 Some really wild toys around here...
