Buddy, that car will walk you AFTER you holeshot it. Even worse than getting walked, he drives right by you. Probably don't see too many imports in yer trailer park..........

Ok, I just got off the phone with Ken from the shop that built that car. Nice guy, btw.
That car is running in a class that requires the use of the stock transmissions. As such, they can't run a liberty or lenco, which would be ideal with a powerband like that. Be that as it may, that car only drops to 7,500 rpms on the shift, which means that they are still nicely in the meat of the powerband. So yes, it only makes > 600 rwhp for a few thousand rpms, but that car spends most of the race in that range.
The car has not gone down the track yet, but it should do so next weekend I believe he said. Trap speeds should be well in excess of 140 mph, so 9's are just a matter of traction. Not too shabby for a 4 banger
AUTOMORPH, are you like, 13 years old or something? We are just having a discussion here, and here you go and insult me. I wouldn't be talkin like that if I were you, after all, you are just a Canadian. Youre lucky we let you on this board. You are obviously a punk, and you can't read, so I won't even bother replying to you anymore. (no offense to any other canadian brothers here, just to this guy.) You should drive yourself down here to my "trailer park" and I'll show you how we do it in the good ole USA.
Humping my who?.......Beating my who?.......... Dude, you are way out of line. You should be careful talkin' like that, if you kicked off of this forum all you'll have left to do is collect the maple buckets,ay. And what's the deal with your trailerpark comments,ay? That's like your biggest slam in each post...it doesn't really bother anybody as bad as you apparently think it does,ay. Go start unnecessary crap elsewhere,ay.

You guys can't seem to play nice so this thread is locked. I deleted one particularly offensive post. This type of personal attack will not be tolerated in this thread or anywhere else on the board.
