Hey guys, I really need help deciding which sled to go with. I foung a great deal on a 87 jag 3000 with 18500 mile for only 4500$. But I dont know if I should go with that or this 2007 flamethrower 1200 that my dealer has. It is a little more expensive and I know that 1200cc is a big motor, but I think I can handle it because I just sold my 75 cougar with the 455ci twin turbo in it. I had it painted sky blue pink and put lightning streaks out the side,,, I also had my moms picture put on the windshield. The track was extended and lowered, and I had a fart can out the back for the exhaust,,,, I had it up and over 200 mph on a couple of occasions, so I really think I can handle the 1200cc,,,,
First thing I wanna do is take it home and rip the hood off it,,,, cut it in triangles, then fiberglass it all back together to get better wind resistance,,,,,Me and my buddy did this on his Porshce and it turned out really nice,,,, custom. I also wanted to paint the boogies yellow, the suspension, blue, and get a red track for it, but there is no bogies,,,,, I think its a 6 stroke motor, but its ok, I am gonna unhook the gas line and just mix everything my self,,, I did it on my 77 jag,,, I mean 75 cougar and it worked really well.
I have 200$ for the guy wants for the flamethrower 1200, and my uncles, neices, sisters, boyfriends, cousin, has offered to lay the other 18,000$ down on it for me.
So what do you think?????

puree, what was that you said about waders before?
Besides that there is noooooo way either one of those will beat my Ram Jet SRV
So you might as well save your $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$.
But since you will probably spend everybody elses money on it anyway, I think you
should go for the Jag. You can make it go sooooo much faster in fact I will sell you one of my special turbine powered engines with the extra dual Ram Jets for
a cool $50,000,000 I know your aunts, uncles, best friends, neighbor will definitely foot the bill for it!

Naw, this is just the beginning. Nothing else to talk about in here, as the new Yammi's never break down!!
Actually, neither did my old phazer with the small block chevy in it! Man, fitting that catalytic convertor was a pig!

hey where is your dealer?? my local dealer said that he could get me the recently released 1700 flamethrower2 for like 63,000 dollars, and i told him that he was crazy. That is a STEAL I almost feel bad for the salesmen. getting ripped off like that.
I'm thinking about a new sled, because my Vmax is no good to me anymore. I put that new genisis quad power tech 440 engine in it, and now i can beat a SRX!!
does anyone know why the thing runs so horrible??
BTW, I had my cousin shave the track, and put 466 inch+7/8 studs in for me so I could do a little powder riden.

the flamethrower I am talking about is the fire edition, bright red with flames down the sides,,,but like I said, I am taking it all off and cutting the hood in triangles,,,then I will get less wind resistance,,,, I cant shave my track though,,, I have that deep lug 5 1/2" red ripsaw twin track,,,, I was wanting to use it for some asphalt racing!!!
I also cant believe your getting the flamethrower2 1700 for only 63000,,,, I actually paid 58000 for mine,,,, but its an original
Paige,,,I always say NO to crack,,,,,,
