Wow, this mst be the most embarrasing way to lose, this guy got owned.

Owned to the Max?

You aren't related to this guy are you?










Anyways, the vid was funny. Something tells me that van isn't stock.

 

omg.. don't show that to provench!

 

linky no worky...

 

OK cubsy, you must have edited that post because the first time I clicked that link I got a page that had a link to Jar Jar Porn. I hate you.

Anyway, that video is way old. There's a bunch of guys who've been racing turbo minivans for years. Gus Mahon (RIP) is the grandfather of the clan and still an icon in the Turbo Dodge community. There's a few more videos like it here: http://turbominivan.com/videos.htm

 

Good guess. Paul's mod list is here: http://www.turbovan.net/mod_list.html

 

I've seen the van before. He's constantly breaking crap in it. It's boosted at 28 psi or something crazy on the stock motor.

 

yeah i was trying to promote my small business

LOL X 10!!!
That picture is just waiting to get into photoshop and get "owned" written on it!! Too funny!!

 

Ohh...it's the turbo minivan...I've seen that one before. It's amazing how quick it is.

 

that van is nuts...so now i'm on ebay lookin for one....

 

You don't find them on eBay... you find them in junkyards, mostly. But if you're actually serious, check out the for sale forums on turbododge.com, allpar.com and the Shelby Dodge mailing list (sdml.org).

 

makes me wish my folks didn't trade in the minivan, i had the shell to work with!

 

yup...none on ebay...couple on autotrader tho...i need beater and i wanted a truck...hmm i'm thinkin i could sneak a van under the wife-radar

 

The thing about the turbo minivans is that they can sneak under everybody's radar. They are essentially invisible. I like this story:

"I pulled up next to Mustangs and Camaros and started talking with the kids. They thought that there was nothing good about a minivan, and they didn't believe that it was quicker than their cars, so I didn't win any points on speed. I told them that "stealth" was good about a minivan. To show them, I pulled off a big smoky burnout across the parking lot, and much to their amazement (as if the burnout wasn't amazing enough) I just stopped and parked right at the end of my own 2 black strips! The cops came and went by me like I didn't exist. There was still smoke in the air. They checked out everybody's car except mine. I was the only one with a hot hood, but they never touched it!"
