After discovering that my daily driver, an ETK 846tx, is actually the fastest in a straight line among my cars, I decided to make it fastest in the corners. So I took it to Torres Tires, who usually don't do this type of suspension work, but agreed to help me install the new suspension components. In the front, I swapped the stock struts, which were designed primarily for comfort, to aftermarket struts which would typically come on the ttSport models. I also swapped the front sway bar for a ttSport part. Now, for the rear suspension, I swapped the rear shocks for ttSport shocks, the rear springs for ttSport springs, and the rear sway bar for a ttSport rear sway bar. Now that I've had the chance to drive it a bit, I think this thing is gonna be the perfect sleeper. It still has most of the ETK comfort, but now, it's a mean track machine. I'm wondering... now that most of the running gear on this thing is from a ttSport model, can I stick a ttSport badge on the back?
I have already posted once I will post it again. My Barstow was stolen it was taken from my home on Horizon Ln. in the suburbs outside of Belasco. please help me find my car as I am very attached to it as my first car. I have owned for ten years and really need help finding it. contact if you've seen it.
@DavidJ305 yo I just saw this idiot doing a burnout on the road, looks exactly like your stolen car. Found it in Belasco. Moron made me crash into a wall. --- Post updated --- I just heard a news story about a red barstow driving on the docks and crashing itself..
Today I brought my new wheels and tires to Torres' Tires to get them mounted and balanced. Then, I installed them in their parking lot. I don't think they were very happy about that... Time to go home and pull off the flares! -At Home- Wow! It looks so much better. Well I have a bunch of junk tires from multiple vehicles, including the stock ones off of the Hopper so I'll drop those off at the scrapyard. *Loads up D35* *Takes off* Hey, is that @DavidJ305 's Barstow?! It is! I better chase it down. *Barstow sees me following it and takes off* Crap! -A Few Minutes Go By- They spun the back end around the corner and put it into the rocks so I blocked them off. *Driver gets out on foot* *I call the police* I'll let them deal with this one. Sadly the Barstow has a little damage from the rocks. Easily fixable though. I towed it back to my house here for you (@DavidJ305 ) to pick it up.
huh, i saw that thing go past me in belasco! Must've gotten the car fixed though because I later saw it crashed.
Weird... So now the Belasco PD is on lockdown for street racing. They busted a gang of racers on the 405 about a half hour ago. The cops nailed 2 in action, a heavily modified 200BX and a new SBR4, going 160-something MPH. The police kept working, getting one pair after another when the racers got off exits on the highway. They eventually wiped out everyone racing tonight. Be careful out there now everyone, it's a dangerous sport, my friend did it for years. I'd also like to thank the police officers who stayed late and risked their lives doing speeds of 140 MPH in pursuit of a racer resisting to stop. That's all, I just saw it on the news and thought I'd tell everyone.
Earlier... Hearing some police sirens... OH MY GOD *Civetta Bolide hits me going 150 mph* JEEEEEEEEEZZZZ Thank god my front is still- *car smashed into wall* *police arrive* *an ambulance pulls up* *is dead* BREAKING NEWS 3 MEN DISCOVERED DEAD AFTER FREAK ACCIDENT! When a Civetta Bolide hit a ETK K-Series, a small pile up happened. The ETK and Civetta driver were found dead. A street racer related to the Civetta hit the wall trying to pass the Civetta and killed themselves. Luckily, the police had the road blocked off before any other accidents happened. We interviewed Sergeant Adams about the crash. "We were chasing the Civetta when we saw it smash into an ETK. We instantly called for the EMTs and pulled over. We were shocked to see an Ibishu 200BX then go 150 mph into the crash. After that we closed the road so no one could get through. Street racing is illegal and dangerous. Don't do it." You heard it here, folks. Don't do street racing. Thank god for the Belasco Police Department for protecting the city from the criminals.

Yesterday was such a big day for me! Putting my D35 beast on a car auction, and sold my Ibishu 200BX Drift Build. Then was invited to a huge racing event. So I'm going to get right onto the topic. Let's start it out small. I woke up, (well duh.) and did my normal Friday things, got ready, and drove to work in my ETK 800 Series. That car was a dream to drive, first time i drove it since last week, after the tire went flat on it, i i fixed that up real quick, and headed off to work. It was a slow normal day, almost as usual. There where only 6 trucks in the shop, and i worked on 3 of them, and finished all 3 of them in one day, once again, which is nothing odd at all. 3:45 PM, Yay, Time to go home and enjoy the weekend! Drove home, got home around 4:25 PM, And watched the news to see if anything huge happened while i was gone. Nothing but a local Garfield Heights citizen did hit a deer (like i did in my Hirochi Sunburst) in his SBR4. It might be inside my shop, or salvaged. OK, Enough off-topic. 5:35 PM, I was done watching the boring news, nothing huge happened locally. Made dinner for myself, and was ready to go out hunting some deer in my D-Series, until that was stopped when i got a call 5:55 PM saying there was a huge dance/party/car meet in East Coast USA, where my best friend lives. Dang, i have not seen him since 2001, At a car meet at his house. 6:25 PM, And i was ready to head to a rare car meet, where all my friends are, and a bunch of other neat stuff. (yes i got tons of pictures) I drove my Gavril Barstow Hornet with a stage 2 Supercharger there, hoping i could win something, man, was i hoping that they would do some drag racing, because I'm good with drag racing, it seems like i always win . Anyway, by the time i got there, i was 5 minutes late, which didn't bother me. I was the last one to arrive, which sucked, because there was no where to park. The house is massive, with some loud music, and people partying/dancing everywhere. I had a blast, we did some epic drag racing, (i won hehehe), drifting, and of coarse, showing off. Party ended at 11:00 PM at night, and we all drove home, tired. I stayed in a hotel, then drove back home. Now I'm sitting at home doing.. NOTHING!! Pictures:
