I don't remember the 60' times, if I recall they wern't that great, this track is at sea level. I just wrote down the 1/4 mile time in my log and threw away the timeslip, I am not the best driver so times could probably been better.

Wait till they're even with you then turn on your right turn signal so they can't see. When the light turns green watch them floor it and just see how far they get before they notice you turned right. To add dramatic effect you can do a small burn out--that usually adds at least 200 feet till they notice.

It beats wasting gas on them.

Although if their girlfriend is there--waste em.

hehe done that before.....

my favorite move in that dept is kinda funny....

get them all riled up and ready to rock revving and the whole deal......then, make sure the coast is clear and just gently coast off the line right through the red light and drive away......that pisses people off to a degree that you cant imagine and its absolutely hysterical.

That's a great one. Toying with the mind is waaaay more satisfying than a race with those kinds of people. Its like rubbing it in their face and they can't do a thing about it.

Makes them look as dumb as this thing:lala: the dancing turd

Mine is a lot quicker than my old '92 Z28 5.7L, but I haven't seen 13's yet either.

How does one achieve a 1.7 60' on stock suspension, stock converter(asuming its an auto) and street tires?

If he got a 1.7 60' the car isn't stock. So what if the engine is.

As far as the B4Cs having a different chip..maybe. My roommate said that was true yesterday(before I had even read this), but I know he wasn't sure.

Hard to tell about the chip, could be, all I know is that my B4C was noticably quicker than my '92 Z28 with the same setup, and the brakes with the 1LE is night and day.
