Calling GR8 Ghost....Bullrun 2008

[Sharkfin]

Haha I think he should post some stories from such a wonderful experience. Just to show everyone a little something, here is the video of his R8 from streetfire.net, his "blackbird" comes in about a 1:10 in:

R8 appears 38 secs with the man himself (i think), http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v-SQr1l9T8E

[Sharkfin]

i guess I've lost hope he'll post..haha

[GR8 Ghost]

What do you want to know?

[Sharkfin]

well since they don't have any info about what happened or vids I was just curious of your take on the experience, any cool/interesting info would be awesome. I watched the episodes from last year and they were sick

Damn! I had no idea you had all that stuff in there! Crazy...

Some other guys from NY in an R8 with a 12 gallon fuel cell. I hadn't thought of that.

So how much did that really help? Was it the guy from rochester with the v10?

[GR8 Ghost]

It was a huge advantage. It was just a V8.

[toaster]

the thing makes the batmobile look like a cozy coupe.

simply insane.

[TonyD]

Sick car! Love hearing that exhaust. Truely does put the Bat Mobile to shame.

Well he is also getting the first supercharged rs4, take a look if you haven't already seen this: http://hoppenmotorsport.com/MTM_JHM_07_24_08.htm

[GR8 Ghost]

That car will be simply insane! MTM isn't cheap either. Guess he will certainly need that fuel cell in the RS4 now! Way to go Adam.

Yeah that car will be unreal, and I'm guessing by the s5 supercharger price- it will cost at least $20k to get that done

[GR8 Ghost]

My guess is closer to 50k. Its basically the same system they are offering for the R8!

[CONTROL TWO]

^^ so what exactly does the pulse thing do? best guess so far is to keep animals out of your direct path while mashing down the freeway at 100+??

[johntesi]

Agree with the above post. That is my best guess as well, and inquiring minds most certainly do want to know.

Hey I met you in Park City, Ut. Nice guy, and awesome car!

[GR8 Ghost]

Very nice town! Where did we meet? I ran into so many people on Bullrun. :-)

bump answer mah question gr8ghost!

[GR8 Ghost]

bump answer mah question gr8ghost!

Sorry dude. Its a secret.

[ttvick]

Not to bust the secret bubble, but an EMP basically fries all sensitive electronics within its range... Obviously it would be directional and pointed forward.

[d94]

dear god man, that is a sick setup inside your ride..and you have a damn EMP amongst all the other goodies..simply sick

if you dont mind me asking, what do you do for a living?

[GR8 Ghost]

Its not an EMP or a pinch. No way to power something like that nor have it not affect the car. Besides what good would it do? It is amusing to see how many different theories have arisen from this.

[akasch]

maybe enlighten us with the real answer

[GR8 Ghost]

heh heh...never

[fusionx]

badass car dude, so you got 5 tickets in 36 hours? hahaha how many tickets have you had in your life?

[boravr6]

maybe enlighten us with the real answer

heh heh...never

This post is starting to suck like the finale of the sporanos!!

But GR8 .. cant blame you! Keep that ace in your sleeve as long as you can!

[GR8 Ghost]

Hahaha, its true. I'm just hoping that it will all die down...until the next rally that is.

[Quattro]

wow!!!! car is sick!, mtm rs4 is insane....I am speechless...

[jbrown7815]

I saw you come through Tucson, AZ. Last night before finish... stayed at Ventana Canyon resort.


I was in a white evo, we got you to rev on us. :D
