VIN DIESEL... wonder what his cycles look like?

Bruce410:::

50 is no 21" arms. He would be a monster. 50 is about 17" arms maybe 18" if he puts on body fat...

But he isnt that big at all. If he benching 255 then he aint that strong either!!

I respect a fast car whether its american or japanese, Rice started out as only jap cars, the ones that are riced out with those fart can exhaust's that sound like pissed off hornets, body kits, stickers and aftermarket guages, they look fast but have nothing to back it up. That is rice and the guy driving it is a riceboy, even if he is white or black whatever. Rice is making an illusion that the car is fast.....type R stickers on a stock integra come to mind. There is a trend now to make domestic cars look riced out.

I work in the automotive performance industry, I am also an avid drag racer. your comments are far from being correct, a domestic sports car will out last an import sports car, turbo cars are unreliable and imports are not designed to handle the amount of power it takes to be competative with an american sports car. Supra's are very fast in stock form as well as RX7's, 300ZX TT but of couse I am talking about turbo cars, in stock trim they will get out performed by a corvette which is cheaper and more reliable. You can do as much as you want to get insane HP out of an import but I can do it for alot less and more reliability in a domestic, I can throw turbo's on a vette or mustang and run less boost (more reliable on stock internals) plus Domestics have something imports will never have....Torque and lots of it. There is no replacement for displacement. I have to laugh when I goto the import drags.....sure some nice cars but I have to laugh when I see some hopped up 4cyl with thousands of dollars invested into it running 14 seconds and breaking down after a couple passes. Meanwhile my daily driver in stock form can whoop its ass and still has a full warranty.

How many imports have you seen run in the 6's? NONE

The pro 5.0 mustangs are in the 6's and 7's consistantly, thats with a small block V8 and SINGLE power adder, no twin turbo shit. seems like the trend is to bash domestics. I have never raced an import that can come close to running my times in my N/A daily driven Mustang let alone my drag car

What can i say, American cars may be that bit faster in a straight line but racing isn't all about going fast in a straight line and when it gets down to track racing there is no chance in hell an Viper, corvette or an mustang will keep up with an GTR, Evo or STi theres no denying A grey import will produce power easier with less displacement an RB26dett upped to 3L form is not un-usual to produce more then a mega-watt (1.340rwhp) of power... with a state of the art driveline and 4wd system (arguably best in the world an 550hp GTR will own "any" american race car in it's power and weight ratio.
Oh and when your talking about consistent 6-7's you must have forgot that the HKS R33 does 7.4 and below not to to mention the many RX7's here in oz which have cracked the 6 second barrier on more then the common occasion.

When it comes to cars i am quite bias and do not follow American built cars (hate the viper) im more of a jap and Ford(oz) boy... Muscle?? Seen the latest BA range in Australia drool?????!!!!!!

you have any idea what a 21" lean arm actually looks like on a guy of average height?

50 was benching 255 when he trained in my gym.. his minder was pretty big but he certainly wasn't... 21" arms, lol.
what gym would that be my friend, because he works out at David Barton Gym in NY and LA, he also has a full gym in his 62000 square foot house that was owned by mike tyson previously., 50 was putting up 350 after his recovery from gun shots and that was repping. i'm sure he maxes around 400's. maybe his arms are 19 but he is easily tyson's size and i thought iron mike had 21 inch guns. he isnt average height at about 6 1 or 6 2, i got his autograph and he was my height. i regularly work out with a champion bber in my gallery who was 225 5% with 20 inch guns minimum in his prime and 50 is just as massive as him. aside from the game. i worked out at east bank in chicago when ll cool j came in and he was putting up 500lbs no problem, 50 is just as big as him. the Game was about 6 4 but skinnier while 50 was built like a linebacker, and jacked as can be
 
that would be bally toronto. superQT saw him too :qt: Maybe he was off cycle, cause he was maybe 200 tops.

I really dont want to argue this anymore than how much tiger woods bench presses, but you know the stats you claim for him make him bigger than arnie?

its not that i am arguing to be an internet tough guy, i just find it hard to believe that 50 can only do 30 lbs more than i can on bench and that i was extremely impressed at how big he was in person. i truly dont' think his arms were less than 19, 21 is probably pushing it i'll admit. furthermore, i workout at david barton and if you go to davidbartongym.com you'll see the owner who is built like a pro bber, he told me ll and 50 are equally strong, and i say LL with bodygaurds at east bank movin 4 plates on each side with no effort at all
 
to put it in perspective - I can bench 4 plates for reps, my arms are 18" & change pumped and I'm bigger than him.. since he was doing a movie maybe he was slimmed down. There's a lot of movie stars and musicians come thru my gym and none of them really look that impressive to me.. mark wahlberg looks like a little kid, 50 was the biggest.

his bodyguard spotted me with 405 and pulled it out the stands like it was nothing.. strong as hell.

LL is a big boy. he is one of the most vascular mofos ive seen. no way does he not juice. he pulled up in an suv with his face on it, worked out with mj at eastbank club. he was surrounded by dudes and he pumped out 4 plates up to around 500 on the bench. i'll tell you who is a specimen up close and thats willis mcgahee on the buffalo bills, he has the sickest arms ive seen on a non pro bber

500 Lbs? LL Cool J? 10 Plates? he's a big dude and a muscular dude, but I wouldn't put him in that class.

There was an article in musclemag about LL Cool J, and he bragged about doing 315 lbs. for 6 reps...he's nowhere near 500 on the bench...maybe it was his squat?
