Laz does it again!
 
Well, I just got the new HotVW's in the mail, and page 53 has a pic of Laz (blacked out edition) winning best of show! It happened back in July, but you know how mag lead times are. I tried to get to that show (since I was born ten miles away from there in Manning) but work had other plans.

:DCongrats Tony!:D

NO_H2O December 30th 2009 16:01

Sweet. Good to see he is back in the saddle with style.

Lazarus January 21st 2010 22:01

thanks guys i just stumbled onto this thread. i was gonna post a few pics of my newest add-on and here this thing was. i really appreciate the accolades. that being said here is some gas heat pics. i recently changed the stock duct for some of that neato brake ducting so the two match now.im almost ready to head out to winterjam. just a couple more things to do and im ready to go . btw wrench im sure you know by now but that dragnight show was pretty good the race didnt finish until the sun came up and greeleyville should be called nowheresville.

Yeah I noticed a pic and a caption but no mention in the article. Was wondering what you ran or since it said "fast super" was wondering if you beat anyone or just showed. Car looks great tho!

Lazarus January 22nd 2010 11:41

no running on the track 4 me. dean has ridden in my car so he knows,through 1st gear anyways:lmao::lmao:,that little joke is inside but those who know will laugh pretty hard.when he was in it i still had the 2276/w(140hp no bottle) nitrous now its grown up to a 2.7 TIV on the juice. no #s yet but im still tuning.

I really wanted to go, but work got in the way. I know that place is nowheresville...I was born in the next town over (it's not the end of the world...but you can see it from there :lmao: )

Heater install looks good Tony.

wrenchnride247 January 23rd 2010 23:12

sixseven February 20th 2010 21:49

You sure you have the right SB? It's a 2.7 T4 with 48IDA's. He does have NOS, but that would be a LARGE shot of gas to make that HP#. Were did you hear this Wendell?

sixseven February 20th 2010 22:06

jus had a phone call.

wrenchnride247 February 20th 2010 22:09

not him...He don't even have the NOS plummed-up.

sixseven February 20th 2010 22:13

That's what they said. Thats unbelievable. If you have his # call him and find out. If thats true what's that motor putting out at the crank. :shocked::shocked::shocked:

wrenchnride247 February 20th 2010 22:19

I'm on the phone with NO_H20 right now, and he talked to Laz today.

sixseven February 20th 2010 22:27

Was it true ?

wrenchnride247 February 20th 2010 22:30

Don't think so...NO_H20 might chime in here.

NO_H2O February 20th 2010 22:31

Laz said he wasn't going to dyno his. He drove it down from SC. I talked to him today and he didn't ay anything about putting it on the dyno but he did say that Super VW mag shot his car and he was going to do the Nav. Ralley.

sixseven February 20th 2010 22:38

I just made a phone call. To justin (coral 61 turbo) He said he had the highest #'s for a bug #'s 352. He said that a rail buggy had the highest #'s 370 something. The boys I talked to earlier must have been drunk:lmao::lmao:

sixseven February 20th 2010 22:39

You guys have a good night. I have candy to go make.

wrenchnride247 February 20th 2010 22:42

Cool! I met Justin at Taco Smell on APD 40 last week. He saw the VW patches on my jacket. Hmmm, why would anybody be drunk at daytona beach LOL!

sixseven is Wendell, he works swing shift where I work (drives '61 "hood ride" bug). Justin is not a member here He just knows Wendell (they are in the local club) You have seen Justin's bug though. The early coral red rag top with chrome BRM's and side draft turbo hidden behind the fan shroud...very detailed car. It was at dyno day (kept inside) last year. I have pix, but they are on my crashed hard drive I'm still trying to recover :mad:

NO_H2O February 22nd 2010 00:08

I remember that car.

Lazarus February 23rd 2010 15:57

it was not me thats for sure. i did do something that high hp turbo car would never even attempt. i drove from the upstate of SC to Daytona ,along with to every event and the nav rally, and back (about 1200-1300 miles) with very little issue. had a small issue on the way down in jacksonville that took less than 5 min to repair. that and got my car in the glossy french pages of super vw mag. so high hp/torque is nothing to me anymore. been there done that and have a trophy to prove it. i was really surprised to see so many trailer queens there. most of them were local. very strange.

wrenchnride247 February 23rd 2010 22:19

Glad you had a great time down there Tony! I can't wait till I can do the same type of event's with mine! The guy with the turbo car drives around here every now and then, but said its a little to "radical" to drive everyday. :rolleyes:

Lazarus February 23rd 2010 22:59

how is ur stuff coming? i was following the build thread but have not seen any updates lately.

Saw that turbo car in SC last year. Really nice! Think i saw it for sale on thesamba around Christmas time. It didn't sell? Looked like a bargain.

It's going "like a heard of turtles" at the moment :lmao:

I had to build a motor for a friends harley that took longer (parts issues) than expected (as usual :rolleyes: ) It was taking up space I need, but I do have more parts coming in all the time for mine :D

Pete

He bought it off the samba a few years ago. He wants to build something else so he may of had it on there for sale.

wrenchnride247 February 24th 2010 23:00

I found a pic of the turbo bug from my town in Pete's pix at daytona (thank's Pete!)
