Default What happened to TwinTurbo?

I haven't been on the forum in ages, but I remember TwinTurbo was making one mean corvette, the one with the handmade one piece front end, twin turbo engine, and all sorts of custom goodies, whatever happened to him and his car? Just curious because I always wanted to see what the end result was.

I don't think it's finished but he is still working on it and it's as mean as you remember.

I believe he is perma-banned - you can find him on digital corvettes in their C3 section.

I don't believe he is "perm-banned". Just his choice.

He spent more time criticizing others than working on his Vette.. He has been working on it for years.. Maybe he'll never be finishes..

It could be worse...he could be posting on CF 57 times a day every day for 7 1/2 years now.......like someone else I know of...imagine the time that guy has wasted? and while we are on the subject the difference in your car and his is yours is bought his is built.....much easier to buy everything and build nothing.

Interesting, I remember back when I was really active (used to be killervette666 but I lost all the info for that account) about 3-4 years ago he was a decent guy and it was interesting to watch the crazy stuff he did, he had almost an entire machine shop in his garage. Although I do remember that things started to get heated between him and some other members.
