lol... you gotta love those guys who thought big huge duration at 050" lift cams with 9:1 compression and hogged out heads with a single plane intake and a 850cfm double pumper carb on a 355 c.i.d motor was supposed to be fast or something..They did sound mean though:lmao:

I still recall the sound of thrush turbo mufflers:shock:
 
Re: What is a sleeper for dummies

I think Sharky is a sleeper!
I mean from the outside, he doesn't seem to know much... but he keeps posting so there must be something under the the hood. "thumbsup"

True, sleepers are cool.
But racing on public roads is not.

This is how you do it. :)

The fact that you may look at it and "THINK" its stock is what makes it a sleeper.8)

Not all about power."thumbsup"

Sleepers - YouTube:flipoff:

I'm pretty sure your first statement contradicts that video, a video that explains that IT IS all about the power..... While looking stock

Should I be concerned?

Some apparently didn't know what a sleeper was...So here it is.

I was told if I wanted a sleeper I should change my electronics..make sense to you when it can be seen it was changed?

Kind of like having a car with a blower sticking out of the hood...If you think that's a sleeper then maybe you wouldn't know what one is either..Just sayin.

The term sleeper can apply to more than one aspect..For those who race it is about power but don't think 900hp is going to win you races when all you do is spin..More to it bud.

This was created based on a thread I started and got trolled on for no reason..One thinks because I mentioned I moved the battery to the front axle like the honcho comes that I was saying I invented that and no one else has ever done that and im taking credit for it:lmao:

Really sad honestly he would even think that.

Some said before I even started the actual build that they've already done everything I was going to do and its nothing new..Funny though I never said I did anything to it but but how it was sitting now before the build...I guess they thought I was done and thought moving the battery and changing lower links was my end result sleeper. Even more sad.

So I just sit back and wait for the trolls to comment and attach themselves to each others balls with their lips and have fun.

A sleeper to me is not seeing anything apparent that would give its added performance away to the naked eye.

Im sure if I put on a Brushless system and changed things people could see it would be a sleeper:roll:

The fun part is changing things you cant see and even change things you can see but its not apparent that its not stock.

If I did do the build and took pics I would sit back and grin at those who think its a stock RTR rig..Would most certainly perform better than one but doesnt appear to be modded the slightest bit by looking at it..Now that's a real sleeper.

Im not doing the build now anyway so it doesn't matter..Every one has built a sleeper on here apparently...So ill keep it to myself."thumbsup"

Another funny thing I get from some trolls is they think anything I do i feel like i invented it and im an rc god who can take a stock scx10 and beat rigs with 2k in them in a competiton..I think maybe they are sucking back a little too much on grandpas fire water if you ask me.

Some things i have done i never found on here after months of searching..So maybe i didn't find it or maybe i did find something new and passed it on...isn't that what this is about..helping and passing on things??? Alot of things i learned on here and have applied them.

Everything on here was something new at one time or passed on with general knowledge..Is it supposed to stop and no one try new things and maybe help others or pass on findings???...I sure hope not.

But anyway ,my sleeper concept doesn't sit well with some for whatever reason and im cool with it...They don't have to read it now."thumbsup"

Anyone ever notice it takes a whole lot more words to explain the wrong side of an argument?
