That all of you guys own F-Bodies and are worried about beating RICERS!

Who cares? Let them race eahother. Is it worth your gas money and the cost of tickets and insurance to get caught racing something you know you can beat?

Don't be dumb.

Eat rice. Race cars.

but when people start talking $hit and you have to put em in their place. showem that you spent like 3000 for a decent iroc, 3000 for a new engine and mods, and show em what a 350hp camaro for 6000 will do versus an integra that cost 16,000, another 3,000 in "mods" getting ripped off thinking that since they spent more they have to be faster. i read an article where the max on a honda 1.6 liter engine, with stock injectors is 180 hp due to the amount of hp that the stock injectors can inject due to fuel limitations.

Yeah, the injectors may be small, but I'd like to know how the hell the cheap little stock transaxles hold the 500 horse that the ***** racers put out. The nuts h*nda in Hot Rod has almost 500 horse, and still runs the stock tranny. Same with the little-b*tch neon in another Hot Rod issue. What the hell? Where's the justice? That much hp would scatter my T-5 before I even started the car!

The stock transaxles holdup because they are new, the vehicles dont weigh much, the engines do not have any torque, and they dont hook up all that great. Also if they are putting out 5oo horsepower they spent megabucks. Get a big block, a glide, and a 12-bolt for less.
