I really wouldn't expect you to get it since you're not really a racer at all.

Exactly. I am kind of lost on why you seemed confused about the term if you knew what it meant to begin with. But, no need to get into that and sidetrack the thread.

No... just.... no.

It was a comment back to Derek stating that I found it amusing. Don't like it, skip the thread.

That's why I originally stated "If you mean"... meaning I wasn't sure just trying to clarify. Gee fucking whiz.

Yet thats not ok.
Let me try this again. Oil is a consumable. I obviously don't have to explain to you what no changing your oil will do. Therefore you have to change it. You don't have to change the car's intake, as the stock on works fine. You don't have to change the factory cam. You don't have to delete the cats. The car will still run perfectly fine with all that stuff staying the same. Saying that changing the oil no longer makes the vehicle stock is about as stupid as a KKK member walking into the slums of Oak Cliff and screaming the N word and not expecting to get killed.

I don't see how you can argue that changing the tune to maximize the efficiency and power of the engine is still stock.

Why do you find that comment offensive? It's the truth. You're not a racer, certainly not a hardcore racer nor are you very expierenced since you're still pretty new to this hobby. Drop the insecurity. Everyone was new at some point.

I didn't find it offensive? I just don't see how that comment was a proper response to what I said.

Simply pointing out the fact Zeek makes a thread calling out xxx whp Mustangs to race a couple of weeks ago, then proceeding to say in that same thread he should beat them no problem.

Its called racing, Derek. You should try it rather than sitting online with your calculator guessmating everything rather than getting some actual experience and having fun. Perhaps you can finally get your stock 12 second car out of the 13's.

Changing anything that is not a consumable is no longer stock. So that means fuel, oil, cabin air filters, light bulbs aren't covered.
So adding C16 to a car is ok, it can still be stock. But hooking a laptop up makes it modded. lol got it!

It's friendly banter. I do the same thing with my buddies. I'm not treating you any differently. Well, actually I go lighter on you considering how sensitive you are. You should see the shit Bert and Blownaltered and I all say back and forth to one another. It way more harsh! haha.

Now, get up, wipe your ass(front to back, I don't want you getting any shit in your sandy vag), pull your panties up, go get in your slow ass car and learn to drive it and come race my shitbox Grandpa car.

I like to call that "stiring the pot" I get on a mustang forum. Call out mustangs making over 100 more HP than me and only 1 mustang steps up to race. Pretty sad.

That's because all the cars that meet that criteria either blow up or get sold because people finally realize they should have bought a LS based platform.
