Is their a best CPU for overclocking? Too bad there isn't.
If you have driven stock or slightly modded versions of chevy sports cars then you do not know what I am talking about, KillaBong.
If I still had my data sheets for the setup I was working on, I would post it all here. Nothing in the car was stock. They were, however built off of the Chevy SB, that is what I am reffering to. You cannot build off the other blocks and get as much power out of them (I actually heard of some 460 olds hitting 1300 HP). I think the most powerful non-GM car there is would be the Supra with the Twin Turbos at 1200 HP? (I hate imports and know little about them, so some supra fan will have to fill me in on that).
Unless you know a lot about the classic hotrod era which I would say is 1955-1970, but that is a matter of opinion, you do not know about the parts I was using. In fact, I do not even remember. Today, my friend who builds diggers and races them in the NDRA, will not build of import setups unless he wants to lose. This is simply my opinion, and unless you show my an import setup that can beat what I have seen for myself, then why would I change my opinion?
The chevy sb is a monster for drag racing. Yes, they are loud. I like the car to 'flex' its muscles and make everyone know it is doing it (the whole neighborhood). If it was legal I would keep the muffler off all the time to make it louder. What is the fastest accel time now? The new lam? 3.8secs 0-60? How sad is that in comparison to the 0-100 time of 2 seconds on the setup I had, and I was never that good at building setups (always had a problem keeping the compression ratio safe.)
As I was only referring to the engine setups, I do not see how the setup would handle terrible, since I could mod a 'better' chassis to get my setup in it, and handle like a dream. In my opinion, I like the heavy rear american chassis. I know I could take a porsche and do a 150mph turn without losing too much traction. In the american chassis, I would start sliding, but I know how to control and use it. I think that all the new cars are disgusting looking. I also love powersliding. Try powersliding in a porsche and then in a 63vette. If you know what you are doing, the vette will be able to make turns that the porsche cannot. The porsche's handling is awesome. Great traction. Horrible for powersliding. As I am typing this, I am trying to remember my experience trying to powerslide perfectly and exactly what happens when you do it (someone know?). If you were not allowed to use the handbrake for whatever reason, then you could say the imports and newer american cars handle better. Cars, obviously, use piston engine still. The most powerful one you are going to be able to have will always have to be built on a Chevy block. This was me just mumbling my opinion, so do not take it so seriously. You obviously have your own. There has got to be a guy in here that will back me. This generation of cars needs to be brought back to its full glory; we need to get rid of emissions laws. Oh, one more point. Those times were with the setup in a 63 stingray splitglass chassis. That chassis is fairly heavy in comparison to a porshe body

I could put it in a 69 chevelle(if i remember correctly, its 1/2 a ton more than the vette) and still crush those times by today's cars.

I believe the FX would be the high technology and the radeon would be the brute force. Combine the FX with 256bit memory, then see some awesome power. I still believe that this card will mature (driver updates, games using cg, games designed for the FX's advanced architecture)
