Smile Vishnu/FFTEC Single Turbo 335i Ride Along Video Fun

Last week, a couple forum members stopped by on the same day that we just happened to have CaptainInsano's Single Turbo 335i on hand for some testing. So I gave them a ride in his car around the streets of Mexico.

IIRC CaptainInsano's car has over 80k miles on the odometer on a car that regularly sees time on road courses.

Trip to the Bay Area to visit Shiv:

PROcede v3 $745
PROcede DME Reflash $100
Joy ride in CaptainInsano's car $Priceless....

After my ride in the car, we setup Alex for his ride. We told him he was going out to see the difference a suspension upgrade made. He was being Mr Cool until Shiv stepped on it and the O'Shit factor kicked in as you can see with the smile on his face.

Good job Shiv! The power a single turbo car puts down never gets old... you can tell by the giggle factor you were having a good time... LOL until Shiv put it sideways over the tracks!!!

I'd say you've mastered that maneuver, I know I was on the verge of crapping my pants when you pulled that move on me haha

Got to meet Shiv last night at Le Mans Karting. Let's just say that he knows how to drive too. Good thing you didn't bring the car or I prob would've begged for a ride!

It was great meeting you and your friends last night. Sean and I would have stuck around to talk more but we had some DMEs programming back the shop that we needed to check on. Maybe we can organize a karting day with some forum folks. I haven't been to lemans in years so i as very happy to see that they finally opened up the outdoor portion of the track

I found that when I take my "gum chewing" friends out for a test drive, they either swallow/stop chewing or their chewing turns into hard, gritting crunches.
