Default GrandSportC3 scares old ladies & children!

Here's a couple pictures and for your listening pleasure a short video of Oliviers new 383 stroker. I have to say it sounds AWESOME in person, even the ricer kid across the street came over and liked it, people on the road all turned their heads checking to see where the rumbling was coming from. Too bad he didn't have over 500 miles on it, that would have been a fun ride if he could have really put his foot into it. Thanks for dropping by Olivier! :cheers:

Looks tuff, sounds tuffer! Nice Job Oliver! I'm so jealous! I like the rice wing on that car in the garage. Good for sitting cokes on. :lol: Oliver has a Rice wing too, but it's ok because his car is fast. :cool:

Hey! Who you callin' a ricer? :jester :lol: it's actually a Dodge Daytona and the wing is stock(excellent coke holder :D ), has a Mopar performance computer in it and I once smoked Rustang with it :D

Oliviers car sounds great, he only has 2 CCI inserts in the pipes so it's almost like there's nothing in there.

Thanks Scott for posting the pics and the video!!! I have to get a digital videocamera or a video capture card and shoot some videos myself - especially at the drag strip...

You have to take care with beer in your hand here in Florida... Drinking alcoholic beverages in public is not allowed :( :(. However - it will be ok in my garage and condo ;)

So far I haven't driven above 95 mph because I didn't want to rev too much above 3000. During break in I shouldn't rev above 3000 :(... However - I have only 150 miles left to complete the break in.. Just got back from Tampa...

:cheers:

Olivier

Sounds awesome.

J.

BTW it`s a stange country you guys live in, you can`t drink beer outside and you can`t smoke inside but you can drive around town on a Satuday night, burn up 10 gallons of gas and pump out enough fumes to kill half the neighbourhood and thats before you get into noise pollution.

Olivier...Your mechanic must have thought he was in heaven when he was doing your engine swap. Especially with your tilt front end. What any of us wouldn't give to have that sort of accessability to our engine bays.

Btw, I do like the occasional beer or three, but I can't remember ever getting into trouble for drinking in public.....Well not in the middle of a freeway or a shopping mall, etc. :D

Awesome pics! Great car Olivier!
Man, you must really trust him to let him park on your nice clean driveway like that. Must be NO leaks. :) Wow, I wouldn't know what THATs like. :) I would never park on someone's driveway. :lol: :lol: :lol:
