You must be confusing the RBBA with the NRRBA. Non-running, bare stock block /= baller. Application denied

+1

BTW, where's your post Darius, or does everybody here already know you're a baller? No need to post.

Todd needs extra points since his car has already seen 11s, thats more baller than most of the crap I see on this site... fancy pants manifolds or not.

Points deduction for NRRBA members with loads of parts.

Give me slicks and I'll give you 11s.

I was hitting 12.5 et with stock internals and low boost and street tires, now I have forged internals, 25lbs of boost and 3.0L, so I damn well better be in the 11s by now! I just haven't been to the track all season.

Carlos is so baller that he uses it as a coffee table in his guest bed room in the guest house of his weekend beach house in Miami.

For a while I had 4 RB's, one complete long block (which StricNyne has), one built internals (went bad, don't ask), one disassembled in my basement, and the one in the car.

I ended up giving most of them away for free. I moved so there was no point in keeping them at my parents house and it wasn't worth it to ship.
