Default Hello guys, new member from Chile!!

Hi everyone, my name is Cristián Urrutia, 22 years old and just like the title says, I`m from Chile. After all i`d like to apologise about my writting, I`m still learning too.

I`m a big fan of this page since a couple of years, when I started looking for twin turbo V8 engines sites after seeing a video of Nelson Racing, when drives a street Pontiac Tempest with 2000 hp... sick!! . Then a realize that in this site were a lot of incredible cars that I´ve seen only on "wallpapers sites" .
It´s amazing the level of the cars in here, and the level of knowledge too, i´ve learned a lot just reading and watching the pictures, I just can´t wait to start the build of my own pro-touring killer car.

Well, my ride is a `73 Chevy Nova with a 355c.i. engine and a poor 4-speed Saginaw transmission (dreaming with a t56 or similar). I ran with 3.42 gears and original suspension. The engine has a few and tipical (in this side of the planet) mods as flat top pistons, Crane cam, 750 cfm Holley carb, roller rockers, among others things.

I´ve got a lot of planes for the future, starting with a complete tubular chassis for a better suspension and upgraded direction, then comes the engine which will obviously have a nice couple of turbos. Actually the ideas are so many that I couldn´t name all of them right now, better keep them in my head till the money be in my pocket to make them true .

I hope to colaborate in everything I can, and must of all keep learning from the best pro-touring group on the net.

Cheers!!

Thanks for your responses, pretty surprised!!... I´ve got a lot of pictures so don´t know which one to post. I better left a couple of short videos of my car... Sadly I don´t have any video of the car on the track but on April we`re going to go there again and promess to catch very cool videos to show the cars on action.
