That would have taken too long. It was "hi I'm t550, hi I'm BBP" then he started in with the gibberish, something along the lines of "nice yot a nerf at too". I was like :? :shock: but smiled and nodded and pretended like we understood each other.
I was having one of those days. This turned it right around. :lol:

Liquid is off his game, or back in his trash can. I expected by now he would have noticed YT’s salami comment.

We kept missing bigassblock so we didn't get to meet him face to face.

Here are some more pictures for the night. The fabled 6.2 (auto) engine @ 430 HP. I'm going to quiz the guys tomorrow to see what they say about the different HP ratings.

Im sorry we kept missing you guys. My short attention span kept pulling me in every direction., plus running into other people we knew. Shiney stuff everywhere, so much that you walk right by something amazing because right next to it is something even cooler.

We are here all weekend, but had only one day scheduled for Barrett. Gonna be outside it's supposed to be 77 degrees today!

This is for Tuscany.

I talked to the GM rep (engineer) at the motor display and asked about the 6.2 motor. He said (Mercury and Volvo) do in fact detune the 430 hp motor to get the lesser hp through the ECU.

He also said since its locked it's virtually impossible to crack it, and if you do, and it needs service, they won't touch it.

So there..
