"What kind of sissy leaves a 400Nm torque limit in there on purpose?"

"Car Tuning, CarTooning, what-evah..."

"No wonder these turbo kits cost so much. Look at that dude's house in the background!"

"I'll take 'vaporware' for $1000, Alex..."

[NickG]

"So by touching this key here, we destroy the only working copy of the DME editor"

I told you not to touch it!!!!


"What kind of sissy leaves a 400Nm torque limit in there on purpose?"

Hey, it saves the factory clutch.....ok? :stickoutt


"Car Tuning, CarTooning, what-evah..."

car tuning = cartooning, right?


"No wonder these turbo kits cost so much. Look at that dude's house in the background!"

yeah, remember the Benz that was parked outside?


"I'll take 'vaporware' for $1000, Alex..."

Was that laptop real?

And for the record, that was a picture of myself, Jim Conforti, and Greg Banish.

[Bigsalgt]

It's very nice to put a face to the name! Nick, if I haven't said it a thousand times, thanks for the fantastic software! I can only imagine what you guys are planing for the E46 series BMW!

[highboostingm3]

Something BIG is going on here if you have Jim C's attention like that!

He is like, "Forget the twinscrew on the e36...if I help turbocharge the e46 I can take over the world! Muhahahahahahahahaha!" :eek2

[mike radowski]

I wish I went down to PRI. It would have been nice to meet some of the "big dogs".

Hmm, I had always pictured you guys looking tougher in person. :stickoutt

[ADVANT123]

Hmm... is that Interlagos Blue???

[highboostingm3]

Hmm, I had always pictured you guys looking tougher in person. :stickoutt
Actually to me I think they are pretty darn tough looking for being so smart and so into computers. I mean none of them are wearing glasses and they all look like they could get laid if they had the game.

Cam, dude, seriously. My gaydar just went crazy on your post :rofl

Seriously Cam, weren't you the one in the faces of FI thread who said mccoy looks hot? :D


EDIT: my mistake Cam, you just said "he has so much game". it was goofynick who called him handsome.

[byron]

wonder whatg these guys have up their sleeves:eek:

[5mall5nail5]

Seriously Cam, weren't you the one in the faces of FI thread who said mccoy looks hot? :D


Now that is just all wrong

[highboostingm3]

Cam, dude, seriously. My gaydar just went crazy on your post :rofl
It is actually the guys who are not comfortable with their sexuality and are homophobic that tend to truly be gay...they just don't know it yet. ;) For those who know me personally and knew me before I got married, I would be voted most likely NOT to be gay. My diet was pinocha by the pound. :naughty

[325icintn]

I wish I went down to PRI. It would have been nice to meet some of the "big dogs".I might call it the other way around, 9 second man.

[slcook54]

Looks like a solid baller session.

Cam, I was joking, it's ok, you can laugh :)

[Z3speed4me]

i agree... nick g and jim c together.... they can make some crazy shit happen!!!

s54 turbo powaaaaaaa i hope at least, even though now i am much more focused on TTS2 with the new vehicle :)

[bbaz]

If you've never been, it's truly a sight to see. Bring the most comfortable shoes you own.


Likewise. Next year we should try and be a little more organized.......maybe have a BMW-related get-together or something.

It was really great to finally put faces to the names, guys. I wish we'd of had more time to chat, but there was a lot to cram into three days. In the future, maybe we'll grab a big table at Antonio's or something and make it a regular thing. :wave

[highboostingm3]

Cam, I was joking, it's ok, you can laugh :)
Oh man you know I have a sense of humor! :rofl

EDIT: my mistake Cam, you just said "he has so much game". it was goofynick who called him handsome.

LOL, I'm totally hotter than those three. :stickoutt :lol

[spooltime]

We're all married and I'm pretty sure each of us owns a Glock. Perhaps we should stage the next photo differently. This won't be the last time we see each other. :devillook

[camshaft]

I'm pretty sure each of us owns a Glock.

No safety for the win.

[xjeeper]

I cant wait to see whatever the hell you guys are scheming up come to fruition!!

[highboostingm3]

LOL, I'm totally hotter than those three. :stickoutt :lol
Actually Mike...you are. ;)

[ADVANT123]

Hmm... is that Interlagos Blue???

After closer analysis, it seems that is Nick's E46 330ci turbo :(

I guess I'll keep dreaming for that E46 M3 kit :(

[highboostingm3]

Exhaust port flanges for the exhaust mani would be completely different as well. :(

Names to faces are cool.

I put a 9mm hole in my hand with a glock...it was cooollll...not really I like my italian 92F better...:D

Intresting. Hmmm I just bought the wife my next hand me down car she doesn't know it yet 2003 325i touring, sport package! mmm make a nice turbo car...

[Robstah]

Actually Mike...you are. ;)

Check. Print. Gay.

[fritzintn]

Good to put some faces with the name.

Yup, that's the second thing I noticed in the photo. Non-black headliner/a-pillar ftl :(.

Where I come from, 'gun control' means hitting your intended target. ...and 9mm just makes people mad. .40+ puts effective holes in things that need to be on the ground RIGHT NOW. Front sight aiming is the key. ;)

Back on topic: I'm disappointed that you guys aren't getting more creative with the captions.

[5mall5nail5]

That sounds so bad ass. Seriously.

Head shot with a 9mm will put anyone down..with no sights, both eyesopen, combat shooting. :cool


Hmm hows this...

Nick G: DAM IT JIM (IN THE STAR TREK CAPTAIN KIRK VOICE) I TOLD YOU NOT TO PUSH THE ENTER KEY! The flux capacitor is going to overload now...

Jim C: Flux capacitor...what flux capacitor...I thought you put a turbo on...

Spooltime: RUN, RUN, THEY TURNED THE FLUX CAPACITOR ON...

Thats the best I could come up with...

[camshaft]

Gary you do know the flux capacitor was from back to the future, not star trek right? Wasn't sure whether you were mixing to two together intentionally. And besides, the flux cap wouldn't do anything until they hit 88mph anyway.

[Jean-Claude]

My diet was pinocha by the pound. :naughty

Yeah, I remember Cam saying he would totally have man sechs with a dude....but in a totally straight kind of way. Extra butch, ya know? Just to show you how straight he really is.

[GGray]

Yeah but I like the Captain Kirk voice :stickoutt

Exactly! They turned it on in the paring lot! overheats blows up...:help

I was bored....

[ParadigmGuy]

Nice, looking forward to what these three develop.

[325icintn]

Where I come from, 'gun control' means hitting your intended target. ...and 9mm just makes people mad. .40+ puts effective holes in things that need to be on the ground RIGHT NOW. Front sight aiming is the key. ;)+1, 9mm for practice rounds but .40 or more for the real deal. However, I have always felt like a glock would fire at random (though it never happened to me). Sig Sauer P229 in .40 SW FTW, but I did shoot a 44magnum Desert Eagle that could scare someone to death.
