Why do you think you're heavier than me? My car weighs 3600 without me and a quarter tank. The Premium GTs don't weigh much more than that. I bet yours is the same with those lightweight wheels compared to mine.

I'm a fatass and you're a skinny lil weenie. Plus I have super heavy wheels with all these rivets weighing me down.

thelandshark 06-28-2013 12:43 PM

Lol the best time I have got.out of my car is a 9.87 I suck at racing what's ur beat time steve

46Tbird 06-28-2013 12:43 PM

I'm 180 and you can't be more than 210ish. You do have a lot of rivets though. hahahaaa

Oxford14Stang 06-28-2013 12:46 PM

Yeah, what's all done to your car Steve? And what's your best pass?

LMAO! There is NO WAY you are 180 and I haven't been 210lbs since I was 24 years old. I'm much heavier than that. lol

Nothing but an Hpipe, axleback and a tune. I've only been to the track once with it. It's slowest 5.0 on the board I think. lol

Rebelracer568 06-28-2013 12:55 PM

Can't be that bad steve. I seen Oxford miss 2nd and 3rd on a pass before.

Oxford14Stang 06-28-2013 12:57 PM

My slowest pass trying was my first time ever, ran a 9.7 spinning terribly and bouncing off the limiter. Best of 8.33 and consistent 8.5-8.6s spinning with a few 8.9s and a 11.2 missing second and just letting off coasting down lol

thelandshark 06-28-2013 12:57 PM

Lol can't be that bad is it stick are auto

Rebelracer568 06-28-2013 01:05 PM

Tires and tire pressure play a big roll in et's

46Tbird 06-28-2013 01:07 PM

Pretty sure Steve has been 8.0s a couple of times. But that fourth gear is a doozy, lol. :driver:

Seeing as I bought it Sept 24 and I took it to the track for the first time on Oct 29, I would say it has always run 7.9s. Hell the first pass the car ever made was an 8.09. If I'd been doing a bunch of mods for the past two years and only got it to run six hundredths faster, I would say I've been wasting my time. lol

I like this thread. And Steve your 5.0 is much faster than mine. I took it to Truestreet and the POF put down 220whp. I need to find me some Hondas to race. :pepper:

Over inflated Nittos.

Danny walked by me in the staging lanes and he's like

- "hey..how much tire pressure are you running?"

me- (surprised he's talking to me) "Uhh, they are fully inflated. Same pressure I came in off the street"

Danny- (shocked look on his face thinking I'm a dumbass) "What me to let some air out for you?"

Me- (automatically suspicious thinking Danny is trying to kill me) "Nah, I wanna see how fast I can go in street trim"


Danny- "You sure?"

Me - "Yeah, thanks though".

Danny walks off thinking to himself "Geez, he really is a fuckin retard"

Me sitting in my car - "I think he was just trying to kill me. That motherfucker Talisman put him up to it too!"

Your car is probably like 1000lbs lighter than mine. Would probably closer than you think. lol

All joking aside, I went a 7.81 once (still spun due to powershifting in 2nd and wiggled in 3rd) and ran a 12.55 coasting through the traps the last 100ft after missing fourth gear....again.

When it cools off again I will make it back to the track. It was cold and partly misty last time. Danny is right, it's just too hot to be beating on these cars right now. Nothing to gain from it but wear and tear on the car and shitty ET's.

Was that on drag radials? Either way that's impressive man. Honestly driving skills will come to you the more you drive it. My 8.33 was street tires with my mods in my signature

Yea that good numbers for a horrible trak

JDBishopArts 06-28-2013 01:46 PM

I basically ran my exact time when I was stock on crappy invos. Which pissed me off. But I saw everyone else running slower so it made me feel a little better. lol I wont go back out till it cools off for sure. 1.9 60ft. 8.32 at 88 MPH. That one I launched halfway decent but spun bad in 2nd and even broke loose in 3rd. Every other run was 8.4 at 87 spinning in first and second.

Yeah, that was on DR's, but rowing gears with the stock shifter. I thought I was cool thinking I'd be able to row gears with the stock shifter even though the guys were telling me it sucked. I never drove my car hard enough to know how bad it sucked. I had never even turned off the traction control before that, in fact, I had to ask Nick how to do it. lmao.

Oh well, hopefully I will do better next time out. It's still a slow turd though. I need boost!!

Same for me. It was a joke last night.
