I was on rt 130 the other day when some dude in a miata flew by. Haven't raced anyone in a while so I decided this can be ohne under the belt. I caught up to him and he was trying to go from about 85 which isn't the best for me, so I just left it in 4th and gave it some. Right after that we hit a light where i completely humiliated him in front of his girl. Light went green and before i shifted out of first, i could see him at least a bus legnth back. Completely missed 2nd, bad syncros, and put probably another bus on him i just shut down after about 70 or so, and of course i get the royal fly by, but it didn't bother me.

 

Good one.

 

Was he racing?

 

By the way the tires spun and the coffee can sounded in the back i believe so.

 

stop that **** stu its not cool. everytime someone says they beat a import we here you throw out your 2 cents .just say good kill like the rest of us.

 

werd.

no reason for him to do that every time sumone beats an import. and again stu, your gonna get another thread locked.

 

:werd:



Anyways good kill man

 

forgot about that...very nice kill! everyone loves beat a f&f wannabe...lmao

 

Shut up you babies. You are all acting like you've never been in a real race before. No matter how slow the car is, two bus lengths by the time you reach the top of first gear is an exaggeration. If you clowns would pull your heads out long enough to understand the question that I'm asking you'd see that most of the things I'm saying aren't meant to be insults. Why don't you take a step back, clean the sand out of your vaginas, and reasses why I asked what I did. I don't know about you, but I can barely even travel two bus lengths in first gear, let alone get that far in front of a moving object by then, no matter how slow it is. Once again, this has nothing to do with imports, but all you little girls just to conclusions and start throwing temper tantrums. This thread was on topic until you all had to open your half-wit mouths.

 

Also, this thread doesn't deserve a "good kill," because it wasn't. You beat a terribly slow car, good kill? No, not really.

 

its all us thats why where on probation


ps. good kill.

 

hahahahahahahahahahahahaha

yea your post are not mint to be insulting but they are.

 

1st gear and 323s will get u to about 40 or so which would make it more than 2 bus lengths

 

Re-read the original post. He said he just about had a (1) bus-length on the dude shifting out of 1st. Don't make a fool of yourself.

Sounds about right.

 

and besides he even said "probably a bus length"...

 

jocww:

I don't think that's right, I have 2.73's and in first gear @5100rpm I'm at 39MPH....

 

I get to 40 in first with the 3.08s @ approx. 4500RPM, then spin in second

 

This does not make sense. What is going on here?

urbanhunter44: How is that possible?

I'm confused

 

It means one of them doesn't know which gearset they have. (J/K)

 

I like how no one contested the actual point of my post.

 

Meaning? Of course Miatas are slow. But I don't doubt the guy putting a few lengths on him outa the hole. Miata's don't move very fast off the line, and V8 F-bodys do. But yeah stu, they jumped on you because they thought you meant somthing other than what you did.

 

The mods Pimpwillis has on his 88 Iroc...against a rather stock Miata...not pretty.

 

what was there to contest?? no one else on these boards posts "was he even racing?" or "actually no, some imports (insert specs here) would walk you"....just lay off ppl for a while...and just congatulate them like everyone else!

 

nice kill

 

I think it is a good kill for the Iroc, since it has 181,XXX miles on it, being 10 years older, and way less technology. So in my book I thought it was a good enough kill.

 

At least race something in the same class as you I personally wouldn't have wasted the tread. I do AGREE with stu on the bus length part that is I know you toasted him but not by a bus length off the line before you shifted into second

 

c'mon ppl ...a bus length isnt that much...like what 3-4 cars?? now if would said "i put 3-4 cars on him" no one would said anything..

 

stu did have a good point, but im pretty sure a few of us jumped on it on impulse as an open attack against our cars... face it we are passionate people, and all passionate about one thing third gen f bodies so naturally we will take offence to anything slightly negative thrown at them...

But we must also try to reason with what others have to say and not assume so much, without careful analysis.

Stu had a legitimate argument, for with posing the question of was he racing you, he really did want to know if he was racing pimpwillis. he was not implying anything outwardly negative, he instead was just wondering if it was a legitimate kill, or a mistaken one... face it, there's probably a bunch of us, who have done ric-ey things against *****-s themselves, making us no better than them.

Although stu is on probation, i feel he brings an interesting point of view to this forum, one that we can all learn from.

 

all else aside, good kill pimp willis

 

Forget it man, you are dealing with a bunch of kids, on thier after school playground forum. You had fun, you beat him, good job.

 

See, you are a prime example of someone who is missing the point. This has nothing to do with imports at all. I never said 'there are some imports that would walk you.' Hell, I don't think I've ever said that on here once. But I don't doubt for a second that many member will swear that's the only thing I've said, but that's because they are stupid. Don't be that member.

 

Oh yeah, there is a fine line between being passionate and acting like little kids.

 

you guys are just as bad as him if not worse I say.

and megaracerx how is he going to get a thread locked? he said was he racing. that was related to the post here you are going off topic doing the whole roll eyes thing and stuff like that but I'm sure it is prolly easier to blame stu for this right?

even though you guys are just as guilty :-)

 

just because he doesn't congrat someone doesn't mean he needs jumped on though even mroe so for a simple comment

and if someone else says the same thing stu would say it's no big deal why treat him different?

also by keeping his comments to himself quite a few of you ppl here would have your heads so far up your *** thinking your car was the fastest thing around and the lg4 was able to take on sti's and stuff like that.

don't believe me look up topazboi or quite a few others... jocww will know what I am talking about :-)

 

why doesn't anyone jump on him he said the same thing?

 

im just curious but STU why are you even a member on this forum? why arent you a member of G2IC cuz that actually has to do with your car? i mean do you own a third gen or are you planning to? i am a big fan of imports, most of my friends own one but its guys like you that give import owners/enthusiasts a bad name. go watch the fast and the furious and leave us alone.

 

I rode in a Miata one time, it barely had enough power to get out of its' own way. It seemed fast until I looked over at the speedo, they have that low to the ground go-cart effect that makes 'em seem fast. The guy that raced you probably didn't know about the go-cart effect! Now he does!

 

Maybe his holy boosted Honda got put in its place by a thirdgen and he came here to find out why...

 

i hope thats the case, it just seems odd why someone with an integra would come to this forum and throw his opinion around when obviously he knows that there is a huge bias in favor of domestics here. thats like going into a group of vegetarians and trying to give them each a T-bone steak, it doesnt make sense. everyone is entitled to their opinion but i guess STU enjoys getting flamed and arguing with people. kind of a pathetic hobby but its his perogitive.

 

how does he give a bad name to imports?
a miata is slow

but come on a bus by first gear?

I call bs to
I own an import
come on guys lets throw start throwing down since I'm no different then stu now

 

I am a member of G2IC, good job. And about wondering why I'm a member, hope in line.

P.S. I've never lost to a third gen.

 

ur right a miata is slow and that camaro is gonna tear outta the hole especially with 3.42s or whatever and im sure this has been covered many a time but anything can happen on the street. ive driven a miata and first gear is not impressive. plus the guy had a chick in the car which would slow that miata down quite a bit because of its lack in torque, and im saying he gives a bad name to imports because he owns one yet he comes into a domestic forum and calls BS on some guy for tellin his story that is realistic. and plus im sure hes on probation for some reason, if he was fine and didnt **** enough of the moderators off to get on probation this thread wouldnt even be an issue. i mean a guy with a stock 2nd generation integra comin here and playin hard ball doesnt make sense and he just enjoys pissin people off apparently. i have no problem with you i understand your opinion but i think its very possible that he had this miata beat by the top of 1st.

 

You should really get a clue sometime. I'm not trying to convince anyone of anything, all you clowns just happen to know that I drive an import and tend to incorperate that into everything I say.

 

then quit bugging us and post another 788 post at G2IC or whatever it is

 

I think a lot of people are quick to bash stu because they don't hear what they want to hear when he posts his messages. The fact that stu has an import is just an excuse to make the insult somehow legitimate because this is a domestic car forum.

Let's face it people. These cars aren't fast in stock form, and many are still not that fast even with plenty of mods. Obviously, the original poster was exaggerating a least a bit... no one is going to be putting bus-lengths on cars that are at WOT too, and especially when he completely missed 2nd gear. Stu only pointed this out by posing a simple question and everyone jumps on him for insulting third gen f-bodies as a whole.

It's about time for people on this forum to realize their cars aren't the greatest thing on four wheels (speaking in terms of performance--sentimental value doesn't count). When somebody challenges you or your car, don't retort to whining and bitching about how this is a domestic forum and that import owners just want to say how much your car sucks. Look at it as a chance to better yourself by learning about your car and applying that knowledge to make it faster and better.

 

i agree, however i was simply stating the fact that STU has managed to **** off enough people here to be on probation. also he gives a bad name to imports because he owns one and came to this forum being very pompus. he may be smarter than me or whoever on this forum but if i went to a honda forum and started talkin smack theyd be like well all 3rd gen owners are jerks. so shame on me for questioning why he is here because as far as i can see he isnt someone who is curious about 3rd gens, or someone who is knowledgable enough to teach others what he knows. yes the fact that you own an import does matter because this is a 3RD GENERATION FBODY forum. and plus did STU or the RX7 see the race? no, so yeah its gonna be aggrivating when a guy posts his story about killin a slow miata (i know its not a great kill) and some guy with an integra that is already in trouble for bein on here calls it BS just because he THINKS so.

P.S. congrats to you ive never lost to a 2nd gen. integra, you think that gives you some kind of street credit? and yeah i will HOP in line with every other member here who wonders why you are on this forum and have wasted over 700 posts

 

I'm not going to say I know why stu is on probation... I believe it had something to do with that Cameron guy spewing his BS all over the forum. Anyway, what I do know is he isn't on probation for "pissing so many people off."

I'm sure you can agree that just because you might get pissed off at what someone says to you doesn't mean the other person is wrong... especially on this board, where it breaks down to "If you tell me I'm wrong and you own an import, you don't know anything therefore you are wrong."

 

well i just said maybe he knows more than me, im not questioning his intelligence. im just questioning why he is here antagonizing people. if he owned a third gen and called b.s. i would dissagree with him. the fact that he doesnt own the car that this forum is about just adds on to my questioning of his purpose here. that is all. ive owned an import before. hell ive even owned a ford. ive been a member of many forums in order to educate myself about the particular vehicle. i posted questions but i never threw my opinion around because in the grand scheme of things it didnt count for anything because i didnt own the particular vehicle. and its not like he doesnt know what hes doing, he enjoys arguin and thats about it.

 

good race btw. and im done with this thread, STU good luck to you in all of your further debates

 

I come in here with moer of a stock and slower rx7 then what his teg was when running right. start chewing me also. and by stock not bad for a stock teg to come with boost. must be some special edition type
the story was fairly beleivable with at least winning. but he seems to have exagerated it quite a bit, stu called bs on the exageration can't say I blame him. beat by the top of first fine. beat by as much as he claims by the top of first doubt it.
hell top of first for an object standing still by that much would be a tough stretch

honest how far do you honestly think you go in first gear at wot?
stu calls bs to that claim. he gets chewed

and yes he is on probation
but you know in another thread that ended up just like this
final words by the moderater on another post

"Although I don't always agree with the way Stu replys you guys like to point the finger too easily. Stu and I have talked and he knows what we expect out of his replys and he knows we are watching. I suggest everyone just take a deep breath and examine your own posts. Most of you are worse and are breaking the rules by expressing your anger or disslike of other members constantly. This board is starting to become rediculous.

Sorry Pasky, but they ruined your thread."

he called bs on it being this type of car and they jumped him for it beat him down and ruined the thread
then point the finger at stu saying it's all his fault he is causing the problems when the others (just like this post) started he problem

he beat the miata. don't think anyone here denies that
but by that much in only first
bs claim I say
unless the miata wasn't racing



so here make it easier for you guys
bus by first on a miata

uh oh I'm here causing problems now.
uh oh I'm just here to **** ppl off
see the point I'm making?
