well another racing year is upon us and i wish you all the best of luck, hehe today was great in more ways that one and i thoughts id highlight some stuff before its clear out of my memory

1. newer miata with turbo and stock body running low 13's at 111mph!!!!!

2. stupid ass bpu++ supra running a high 14 and a low 14 @ over 110mph because he would sit and bake tires all night long

3. 95-97 civic with 10 different colors adn 10' wing running consistent on his 18.40 dial throughout the night (WHAT MODEL COULD POSSIBLY BE THIS SLOW?)

4. modded 5.0 for some reason running on a 18.50 dial!?!?

5. 5.0 mustangs actually TRYING and getting high 16's

6. turbo civic ex running high 14's

7. turbo civic hatch w/ gsr motor and internals (from what i could muster in the pits) running low to mid 14's @ 100 traps

8. old ass rx7 running high 10's

9. clean turbo eg civic hatch running low 11's @ 132mph

10. no NEW twin turbo rx7 running faster than 13.9's (from what i saw)

11. bone stock 1985ish mercury gran marquis running low 16's (NOT BAD!)

12. civic hatch with gsr motor running 14.2

13. v6 firebird running low 14's on street tires without blower or turbo

14. about 10 modded 5.0's in the 15's

15. new nissan 350z's doing low 14's to 13.99

16. 89 rusted accord doing 15.0

17. i remember over 3 people that missed not only 2nd but 3rd as well

18. dodge shadow doing low 13's with stock body and stock exhaust

19. the drive home where we ****ed with a viper rt/10 because he was being a dick! and we fended him off in a 1978 ta! woot! and also saw a 360 modena

20. the fact a civic with a gsr motor crashed trying to race my 1988 jeep from a roll

My brother's old car used to do that too. Damndest thing...it was a '92 LX 5.0 with full exhaust, a C4, 3.73 gears, MT E.T. streets, a mild cam, and some minor engine work (it was modded when he got it so we weren't exactly sure). The piece of shit couldn't break 14.4 in the 1/4. He's not the best driver, but that car should've been in the mid-high 13s. Then he got all gay and sold it for a *shudder* Talon which he promptly ran into the ground. Let's just hope there was something wrong with the Mustangs. And what's up with the Supra? A 110 trap speed is solid mid 13s. That'd require one helluva bad driver.

You forgot the 15 second and slower class, consisting of all civics and integras, probably about 100 of them mostly hatchback civics, running 16s and 17s MODDED. They were such a waste of time it wasn't even funny. It was the largest bracket in the event. It was 9pm in round 2 of eliminations because the slow class took all ****ing day. Most of the cars there were PITIFUL.

You forgot to mention the 1980s caprice wagon running 12s.
It was very clean, you could only hear the cam and exhaust. Some nice 442s and a Buick GS low 12s, and a hi 10 second 96-97 Cobra with blower. There was only 1 C5 there running 12.1 or something, sounded badass, and an all motor LS1 running low 10s.

what the hell does he have done then i took a gander in the engine bay and the heads still looked iron (maybe ported) then again i dont remember and the whole engine was dirty even the stock looking intake manifold

It would take at least a GREAT heads, cam, intake, setup for a HIGH 16 second car to drop well over 2 seconds, and that looked stock in there to me, but then again i dont remember all that well. that and the idle was pretty clean.

thats some b.s. then no 3.8 is doing low 14's on street tires naturally aspirated and automatic... where did this magical 100rwhp gain come from, nitrous perhaps?


P.S. NM i just went to that kids site and its a different car, the plate is different i remember the plate was V8killa and the plate on his site is different plus i remember the nitrous routings different...
