The Volvo thread. (Pic Heavy)

[slaterd]

My instructor at UTI used to and still works on volvos today. He used to work on a team that would race 240s against the e30 m3 back in the day. I got to ride in one that he bought after the team got new models. Gotta say on the turns the m3 would go circles round them but on the straights...game over. That thing pulled harder than the cobra I had and it had the cornering to match. 240s are mean mofos

I love how that enclosed road was a foggy highway.

The same 730 HP wagon

I raced this thing in Lemons:




It has a Ford 302 and a T5, puts out about 200-210hp. Sounds bitchin'.

I like the round headlight 240's (?).. only made them for a couple years I think.. Mid 70s

[Mfever]

o my jizz... im modding a 850 asap...

[freeride53]

LOL at the irony in what you said. Make the BMW faster than the Volvo. Gotta love it :D

[mdlimy]

Oh shat! I've drooled over your car on VS before.
Also, is your coworker "jerd" on Turbobricks?

yes he is.

my goal is to make the e30 faster than his 245 as quick as possible and keep it faster lol, once he starts getting the megasquirt tuned it might get pretty quick but still a heavy car.

[freeride53]

i guess i can contribute, my 850 and my buddies/coworkers 245, it has a hy35 and megasquirt and full suspension among other things.

current



and his car when it had the sawblades on it
