That C3vert has a life of it's own now. I wish the web site was still up. No more new wallpaper :cry . I'm gonna keep this post at the top until Steve responds to a yea or nea to more vids and pics. I wonder if he would rent the twin whipple charged beast to all the C3 forum members for a day at the dragstrip!!! :lol: NOT!!

:iagree:
:iagree: Another thing maybe a video of the car far away from the Camera and then speeding up to it and then comes up to the camera and passes it. Maybe show of fast it is. Also maybe the next video could have it showing the outside of the car while on the road moving. I just want to see him mash the gas and let the tires light up. :yesnod:

i know that she can be a gentil, civil very reasonable vette. but i want to see her in her pissed off form, and being one mean bitch! :lol: i think the reason we havent see that is because of the cooling problems.

Anyway If the cooling problem is such a deal, why not just let the Corvette get ticked off for 3 or 4 secounds, Lets see how mad it gets :lol:

I think he got tired of people and left the net. he seems to do this often, hopefully he will be back with another vid. Even if it was just a video of peoples reaction to the car while driving would be extremely entertaining.
I hope that merlin doesn't let people who suck ruin this for everyone. that is such a crazy car that hardly anyone could afford to do it themselves. I appricate the video and hope there are more. :cheers:

Re: Merlin522's Sweet Monster Corvette (emsrescu)
I think you guys are jumping to conclusions. He did say he had a new project with boeing, and he was going to get his doctorate pretty soon. i wouldnt worry about steve. im thinking his time is just taken by things that require a little more attention. he may have droped the site because he was tired of getting raged on for no reason, and if so, i dont blame him.
