yeah got my car out again (damn winter)

I got several races lined up already so tell me what you think

2004= Grand Prix GT
2000= Grand Prix GT
2000= Grand Prix GTP
1995= Police Crown Vic
1995= 5 speed Neon <------belongs to my friend and damn its fast for a neon
1995= 5 speed Neon<-------guy from my school that hasnt been beat yet no real mods but he hits 90 says he is getting a turbo
199?= Honda Civic most modded of the bunch i hear he hits 95
2X 1986= Irocs all stock
19??= Regal 4 door guy says he has twin turbos
199?= 2wd Chevy pickup

Like i said in another thread my area is pethetic but there is some old school muscle cars around that belongs to some old guys but i doubt they will race<----the love my car though

 

Do you say this is BS just because the kid is a tard?

What are you talking about here?

 

Assuming you have good T5 driving abilities, you should beat all but the GTP. I bet the other two GT's will be closer than you think.

 

i'm assuming that when you say he hits 95 that your actually saying he traps 95mph in the 1/4.

 

Id have to say the GTP, maybe the Civic but the rest you should walk easily!

And I do agree your area is pretty bad... noone worth racing really!

 

To answer stu i know the kid and yes he is a tard and dirt poor so he aint getting no turbo he just has a HUGE ego after beating the other 4 bangers in town

I am saying the civic is the most modded car on the list

And yes my T5 skills are good, and i trap a hair above 100

The dude with the civic and neon happen to be brothers

 

Alright heres where you find out more about me, if you have run 100 mph traps, what were the 60', 1/8th, and 1/4 mile numbers??? If you dont have any you DONT trap 100. I am HUGE against people quoting times they didnt run! Prove me wrong, and Ill gladly accept!

 

ummm well in my area we mark off a 1/4 on some empty farm road (90% are newly paved and smoother then any track) and then just go heads up my buddy said i broke 100 when i last ran

 

Two things:
1) I want to know what you mean by the Civic goes 95 or whatever you said.
2) A roller rink is smoother than every race track, but that doesn't mean jack.

 

he hits 95 in the 1/4

i was kinda talking about the fact that the roads are really nice and you can really hook up on them, the black top they used is really sticky should have phrased that better huh, my bad

Any further questions?

 

good website


http://www.web-cars.com/math/

 

Does he hit 95 in the real quarter mile? Or just the way you guys do it?

 

thats a good question because the way we do it i get almost 105 when for real its more like 96-98 on normal everyday street tires from what my uncle tells me (he is the original owner and has timeslips for it)

edit: my dads 1984 Monte Carlo---not even trying i will get pwned badly

 

Well without timeslips you dont run anything in the 1/4... I trap 105, I really dont think your running similar mph to mine (although I personally know how track measure mph).

Oh well, good luck against the other cars, just be safe and make sure noonw gets hurt!

 

i got my *** walked on by a new regal supercharged after seeing superman 2 at midnight but my exhuast was crushed by the y-pipe

1997 Buick Regal GS 6.6 15.00

if its that one and he has any mods done he might take you and it would be close stock also

oh if he does have turbos your just screwed lol jus get him to rev it up see if you hear them or try to find a intercooler(if he has one they are easy to spot) or just see if he will pop hood

 

he dont know have crap trust me its just a crappy green 4 door buick he thinks is fast

According to my uncle(he knows what he is talking about---1970 Z28 with a 355 consistent 12's) it can break 100 on micky thompsons i will ask him to send me the slips he said he got 105 but thats on drag tires so i will most likely get in the high 90's plus he can REALLY drive

 

id watch out for it your car is mid high 14's to mid 15s they all cars run differnt

im assuming its stock

 

ITS FREAKING SNOWING AS I AM TYPING THIS.......sorry for the language but you can understand my anger, 4 freakin months in the garage.......man i miss my car......

 

No offense but he doesnt know what he is talking about. Street tires will generally give you higher traps than a race tire. The reason, a race tire will have air dropped out for launching purposes, and that hurts the top end charge. Also track tires are notoriousely wider, for more contact patch, which equals more rolling resistence and that in turn hurts top end mph. Also the track gets its mph numbers by taking the last 60 feet of the track, and averaging those numbers to give you the mph on the timeslip, NOT the mph you cross the beams at!

I will say again, if he got 105 mph on race tires, your car runs low 13s, high 12s??? I really doubt your cars even close to that! Get a timeslip, Id be willing to say mid 14s @ 96 or so is more accurate than anywhere near 12s at 105!

 

you need to get to a real track. the way your doing it is inaccurate and illegal. post up how you do against the other cars, but until you get some times from a track, don't post times and stick by them like the gospel. i have a done up 305 and i trap 100mph. i doubt you trap anywhere near what i do.

 

screw the track and screw real timeslips i will keep doing it on the street on the empty farm roads its called "street racing" for a reason plus why should i break local tradition for you guys? Not even the cops care we do it they know who does it and when but they dont care cuz they grew up around here and did it themselves. Hell my dad and i are going to race each other soon too.

I say from the tennis team adopt a highway road sign to the telephone poll that is about to fall over poll is a 1/8 and to the Johnson Farm place mail box is a 1/4 and the the intersection down Hickory road is out favorite place to

 

The reason is safety. If you wreck will there be a medical crew on hand to instantaneously help you? Are their walls to keep you from flipping end over end? Is your road long enough for you to roll to a stop provided your brakes fail? Are you sure no one will be driving dow that road when you decide to be crazy. Plus, timeslips don't lie like lines in the street. Just some food for thought.

 

The road is over 25 miles long and we know everybody that lives on it so we know when to race and not to race the hospital knows all of us by our first names (for "other reasons") and the ambulance is always ready to go....and who said we hit the brakes we all just coast to a stop oh and no worries about crossing deer since all of them around here are hanging on various ppl's walls


Tradition is tradition

This is a bit of subject but who else listens to Led Zeppelin while driving?<------cant find where to post that

 

hmmph, i always was a rebel against traditional anything....

 

Interesting, I'd agree on the suggestions of mid 14.xx's at around 96 mph in the 1/4. Aren't the GTP's running about similar times as that?

About street racing, I honestly feel alot safer and comfortable taking it to the track, and plus there's plenty of nice cars to check out and people to talk to as well, and not to forget a safety crew on hand. But for what it's worth, have fun and good luck running a quick time.

 

Its a fun tradition everybody takes part in (atleast most of the guys at school)

Just to say i am not a careless speed demon i only race once in a blue moon...most of the time i cruise at 25mph listening to music and picking up any long legged blonde i can get...the girls love the Camaro

dont think i am even gonna race i am just gonna mess around with my buddies in the country (we build derby cars) since i cant afford the gas....$2.35 for 92 octane just to waste time on some crappy 4 banger

 

People who avoid the track, are just scared to see the results, and by the sound of it, you have high hopes for a car that wont run at the track worth a lick (gotta throw the hillbilly ******* word in this post, for some reason it calls for it). I dont mind that you dont race at the track, but then you dont have numbers on the car, you dont have trap speeds, or anyway to compare with other cars. Granted by seeing what you plan to race, your car cant be too fast...

Keep tradition going, sounds safe..."real" racers do it on farm roads with street signs and maiboxes to mark off the track!

 

Yeah gotta say i like the carshows and stuff too that kinda stuff is really big around here in the summer months iam a regular on the local car show circuit

the nearest track thats a 1/4 with all the cool timing equipment and such is over 3 hours away and since something might happen to me or the car i will go there when my entire family has the time to go with me so we can stay there the weekend and bring along my dads truck to tow it in the trailer

EDIT: No need for bashing.

EDIT: What did I say? What about him huh if somebody talked to me like that to face i would **** him up its not like i havent done worse for less

 

What was so offensive about what he said? It was a light hearted comment that was meant to be taken with a chuckle. He said nothing about you or your character. Relax.

 

Ok lets forget about the negetivity........so who likes Zeppelin? or am i the only one who listens to cool music?

Screw the racing i have a clean driving record and i think i should keep it like that until my real race car is complete which i will drive around town street legal or not since nobody here cares about or enforces EPA laws most ppl run straight pipes with no cats on their V8 rides

Shifty you loser you probably listen to rap dont you thats worse then thinking Hondas with 6ft wings are cool

He insulted my bravery and my car he doesnt know me and has never seen or driven my car and insulted the way we do thing around here which has worked without a hitch since before he was born

 

Are you blind>??? Do you know who Shifty is on the board. I guess not or you probably wouldnt keep attacking him!

And believe it or not I listen to lots of types of music, rap, rock, country, but thats not the point of this section of the website! I think you should just relax, and take the critisicm with the compliments!

 

What compliments? Every time i post something no matter what it is i get bashed. (rock metal indie alternative ska punk pretty much everything that isnt pop or rap i have learned to kinda like country since my buddies love it) i was just wondering what eveybody else listens and plus where would i post this?

Well iam planning on shutting up some jerk off who thinks his car is the fastest thing on wheels and all my friends said i am the guy to do it

The only good real cars to race around here are: 70 mustang, 70 chevelle, 71 Z28, 81 T/A, 69 torino,2 1986 Irocs, 91 RS & a Prowler, 2 Ls1 vettes aside from the vettes and prowler i would beat the rest hands down

 

i listen to pop punk, hardcore punk, oldschool punk, skinhead punk, political punk, ska, regae, jazz, swing, pop, rock, country, ect. but this board is SPECIFICALLY thirdgen tech related. no-one cares about the stupid music you or i listen to. you'll have to find another board to post about music.

street racing is dangerous and stupid, no matter where you do it. there are always those small chances you take of possibly hurting/killing someone else. never said i haven't done it myself, cause i have, i am still young and sometimes my youth gets the best of me. but for the most part, i keep it at the track. and so what if you have to make the trip to the track and family weekend ordeal. my family is the only ones i want to see me race anyhow.

 

Music is the only thing i like more then my car so its not dumb


safety blah blah blah slips blah blah blah not really racing blah blah blah damn you guys all sound alike i am starting to think you are all the same person

mustang this is just some internet forum site whats the worst that can happen i get banned? oh well its not the end of the world jeez its not like shifty can have me arrested for not following forum rules or anything

 

meh, music is cool, but the car ALWAYS comes first.

 

ya, but tgo is probably one of the most informative and comprehensive thirdgen tech-related sites you'll find. That's why most of us take kindly to the rules.

 

You need to move off the farm and into the real world already.

 

meh i never liked following rules.....dont talk to me like that i have seen what this *** forsaken world is really like (R.I.P lil' sis)

 

I don't care what you like but you will follow TGO rules.

 

If this is your attitude your not wanted here. Seems noone else has issue following rules, or not attacking the moderators. I also like to see your lack of care for others lives, I personally dont care if you wreck your car street racing, its your choice to put yourself in danger, I just hate to think you could possibly injure someone else. Granted you talk about racing in a very safe place, and thats a good start but your opinion on lack of jusgement or care, makes me believe your going to wind up taking someone else out.

Oh well, at least Im not sharing my opinion on music, LOL!

 

ah, he's 18. young and stupid, let him kill himself.

 

My sister died so I can do whatever I want. [/whine]


I usually try to be fair and respectful, but I can't take much more of this kid. You need less free time buddy.

 

There is no point in continuing this thread. It has disaster written all over it.
