Beams and Corvette Options

[2bcelica]

As most of you have known, I started a beams swap a few months ago and been driving it every weekend. Its been performing really well and I love it.
The down side to this is now that I have experience a little bit of power I'm craving for more. This sucks because that means more money to be spent, but hey its a thrilling hobby it one can afford it.

I went up against one of those new corvettes today on the highway and the beams performed great against it. It wasn't really a fair match with the corvette lane changing all the time and cutting in front of 18 wheelers, which I was not going to endanger myself that much.

But once we had no traffic ahead of us, we both floored it and seems like we were equal, but i guess thats because we started taking off at 60mph. Then I wanted to see how fast he would take off at 60mph while i was crusing at 60 - his take off didn't look like something the beams couldn't handle. Then it was my turn as I took off and he cruised - Man I was so proud of my beams seeing how quickly it took off in 5th gear. I really do wish a video could of been made of this short race. There were alot of factors to take into account since it wasn't really a race, but the dude had a nice looking lady in the passenger seat who was checking out my car, so I figured a friendly chase wouldn't hurt.

I'm pretty sure that I would of lost if it was from 0-60, but from this experience I crave for more power. I might do some upgrades once winter is over or find another celica shell and put in a 3SGTE. I would never have been able to afford all this back then when the price were still high, but now thats its affordable - dreams will come true.

Just wanted to share.

I'm sure you faired well against a 400hp+ Vette.
