...on the way to school. It was about half way between Tally and Bainbridge. It was black and had some sweet rims on it. I caught him and passed him and then he paced me for the rest of the trip. If I slowed down, he would slow down, if I sped up to 95, he was right on my quarter-panel. I couldnt get him to pull up on me although I didnt try very hard. More than likely, I would have got WORKED!!!

Did it have the like the hood vents on the hood with the stock big ass spoiler.

Yea, it was an older guy driving it. It had the little hood leuvers with the stock spoiler and I think it had a aftermarket front bumper on it. Nothing too ricey, it just looked sweet.

that guy is a bartender there. supposedly he's dumped ungodly amounts of money into it, but i never see him hauling balls anywhere. i see him getting into his car a lot while i'm leaving halligans and i always rev at him, but he does nothing but smile. my taunting tactics are ineffective to the supra's-- i tried to get one to do something from a roll in g-ville but it was a no go. i wanted to hand him his ass..or vice/versa--i just want to run one. i seen a green one in town with a kaos sticker--i'd like to try em.

i beg to differ the fastest supra i've ever seen down our local track ran a 8.85 1/8 mile with a crapload of boltons and turbo upgrades. my quickest run so far was an 8.82 on street tires cause i can't afford slicks rite now i should pull at least 8.2's

by the time i actually move to tally i'll be running mid 7's

02-24-2004, 01:52 PM
i'm not talking 7's in the quarter cool guy, i'm talking in 1/8 times i don't have a 1/4 mile track here

i run 8.82 on street tires rite now, as soon as i get some slicks i'll be low 8's

i'm only running a 75 shot rite now cause of the high milage on my motor, but by the end of the month i'll have rebuilt it and will be running a 100 shot. by end of the however, i will be running a two stage 150+ wet system/plate setup

considering i live in a beach town, tourists tip well, i have 7 months till i move there, and my sponcers get my parts at price, i don't consider saying that i'm gonna be running mid 7's by september unreasonable

slonlo350 can verify that i'm not bullshitting you. i don't need to make up numbers. i run what i say i run.

tell me how to post some time cards and pics and i'll post them. i'll make some passes on the bottle just for you guys and just to make sure u know they're not fake i will post them the day i run them. the date and time is printed on the timeslips and my perminent number is EC101. test and tune is from 12 to 5pm on Sunday and i can be at a computer to post the stuff by 6ish.

02-24-2004, 10:08 PM
I will verify the 8's. That is a fast little car. I know y'all aren't used to seeing fast FWD imports over here, but you are seriously in for a suprise when the GS-R gets in town. He might not be awesome in the 1/4 cause an 1/8th is all it has run, and all it needs to run. I cant attest to the 7's, but I seriously wouldn't doubt it. This past summer it was running high 9's, and with it built for a 100 shot i am sure he could put it in the 7's. Again, it might be wound to tight to cut a great 1/4, I don't really know, but don't underestimate it (or its driver).

ok first i have never in my life seen a dsm go any faster then a 10.50 in the 8th without a turbo u wanna yank ur turbos off and run then lets go i do a 9.4 off the bottle with a nitrous tune up(ignition timing retarded) again on street tires.

btw turbos add a lot more then a 75 shot or even a 100 shot, a car with the same motor as me bolted a turbo on and made 300whp with no internal work, i make 225whp w/ the nitrous

tallytransAM... whoopty freaking doo... u have 4 extra cylinders and a crapload more displacement, i sure as fuck hope u can beat me. Not to mention you have just as much money tied up in performance parts as i do... that is, assuming u don't have anything else done.

u really should check out this site

www.yourethemannowdog.com

Other then top fuel, funny car and other classes you'll never be running in, I've only seen a handful of 1/4mile races that wern't already desided by the 1/8 mile mark and i've been around racing for a while now. the only things special about a 1/4 mile are that u have xtra track to run down a slower car that treed the piss outta you, u get to go faster, ur twice as likly to break because of the increased stress on the motor, and when somone does break it takes twice as long to clean up the track.

and u say u bet i won't beat u in a race... i'm calling you out, lets dial them in for money then tough guy it'll be a nice fair race one driver against another to see who's the better racer. Come to Emerald Coast Dragway in Holt Fl anytime it's open i'll be there, u can forget trying to get me to drive to gville, points racing starts in a week and beating ur ricer ass isn't worth missing a points race.

Ohh man what are you trying to start here? You seriuosly need to backtrack what you have been saying and come to the realization that YOUR CAR SUCKS! and that 7's will never be in the future for that car unless you drop a damn badass turbo set up with one hell of a drivetrain to put the power to the ground. I take it you have never tried to race a DSM before have you? You wanna try one? And a Supra will slap you b*tch ass around all over town(including the 8th and the quarter for that matter), so you better start having some respect. And for the record the bottle is for god damn pussys when it comes to 4 cylinders. "Bottles are for babies, real men get blown"

your telling me a gs-r made 300hp with a turbo added to it? fat chance cool guy.
and you think you can get off the line faster than me? hmm...lets see here...i have an awd and you have a fwd car. you and i both know ill lauch off the line faster than you and you and i both know you will never catch up ether, so save your gas. i sure you can beat honda's though :joystick:

holy crap you guys talk a lot of shit, imports around there must really suck. i'm not gonna argue with ya'll anymore i'll just let ya'll find out for yourselves. ya'll should come at least visit my track when theres some quick hondas there, i promise you ur in for a rude awakening.

97flgst-
i'm not gonna backtrack what i've said cause i haven't said a damn thing i can't back up.

and who should i have respect for. there are 2 people on this site that have earned my respect. and they know who they are

bottles are for pussies huh? the way i see it bottles are for people that don't care to drop tons of money into rebuilding their motor with lower compression ratios, completely reworking their fuel system, spending countless hours tuning their cars to get the most outta their boost, and on top of that having to spend a couple of grand on the turbo or supercharger it'sself. it just seems more practical to me to spend $500 on a NOS kit and pick up and easy 50 - 300 instant hp. hell i got my kit used for about $275 and had it set up and tuned w/ a wide band on the dyno the end of the same day. if i wanted to boost my car and do it rite i'd have to spend $1500 at least for the turbo or sc kit, $1500 at least to strengthen the bottem end, $1000 to bring my fuel system up to par, and $650 to get my computer hondata chiped, if i want it hondata dynotuned it would cost me and extra $275 an hour for 3-4 hours. hell if you wanna put up the money i'd be happy to boost it.

don't hate on somone just cause they choose the cheap, easy way tho

u have a 97 eclipes gst rite? have any problems with crankwalk yet? if not you will... hondas don't do that :lol:

tallytransAm are we gonna dial them in or not?

FLzinc, did you spray off the line and in every gear or just at the top so you could beat him?

i really don't care what a bunch of wanna be hard asses think of me, when i heard about this forum i was told ya'll were a bunch of cool guys that didn't care what you drive and went by fast is fast no matter what kind of car. come to find out ya'll are a bunch of ricers. whats worse is ya'll are ricers with v8s which make you even cockier.

Have you ever done research on crankwalk, NO! Because as it stands only about 5-10% of 2g cars have ever experienced crankwalk. My car has over 75,000 miles on it and shows absolutely no signs of cwalk. NOT ALL DSMS GET CWALK, only a certain number of cranks were milled incorrectly from the factory and mine isnt one of them. Dont try to puss out and try to find a fault with my car, only fault is the damn FWD. And how long can that spray last for before ruining your engine? Cause my turbo lasts through out the powerband in every f*cking gear. And can a teg run 12's in the quarter with just under a grand in it? Nope didnt think so.

Greg Kulbick
02-25-2004, 12:51 PM
I'd rather break out than try to run slower if its not a points event, and even then I wouldn't be in bracket racing. You're trying to get him to bracket race you at a test and tune, that's retarded. Run what you brung, you won't be bringing enough.

Chris, I spray after shifting into 2nd gear. I already drive like shit, the last thing I need is another 190 ft/lbs. on the launch with DRs.

BracketGS-R
02-25-2004, 12:54 PM
i have done my research on crankwalk and it was the reason i desided not to buy a mitsushitty. i know not all dsms have crankwalk only the 95+ turbo ones had that problem and a lot more then what you said have that problem, litterly everyone i know with a 95+ turbo dsm has had that problem some at 50k some not till 120k but they all had it. and yes i do spray every gear all the way through my powerband with the exception of the off the line caue i have traction issues without the nitrous. and i can spray as much as i want without ruining my engine as long as i have enough fuel to support the nitrous i don't have to worry.

BracketGS-R is one of my friends from back home, and I recommened this site to him becuase from what I have seen over the past few months is that y'all were pretty cool and accepting over here. I told him y'all were pretty cool and he should check it out, and now everyone gets in the one massively off topic thread making complete asses of themselves.

How are you going to doubt the man's times when you haven't even seen his car, much less seen it run. Now if he came in here and started a random thread saying, "My Teg'r has 500 hp and can beat any 5 second domestic in Tallahassee," like our Tacoma friend we all know and love, the massive amount of Flaming would be justified.

I might agree that he didn't have to come in and say that Supra's are the holy grail of rice, because EVERYONE knows that the Skyline is the holy grail of Rice, but all the semi-rich ricers have to settle for the $50 coffee mug of rice, the Supra.

What makes you think that an integra cant run a 7 second 1/8th? People might say a full size ChevyVan cant run 12's, but i saw it the day i went to G-ville. There is a CRX back home that runs mid-high 7's in the 1/8th. He runs almost identically with a highly modded FD RX-7. If he came on here saying he could turn low 12's you'd probably jump all over his ass too, why is that?

I thought everyone on here was pretty cool with anything. Several of you have, in the past, said "fast is fast", but as soon as an import comes in here that claims to be quick, you go off. Crying about nitrous and shit. I would be willing to bet that with only slicks and a little more spray (after a rebuild) that the Teg'r could easily turn a 7 second 8th, might even be close without more nitrous. I will gurantee that by the time he moves over here he will be right in there with the fastest of you.

now i think it is time to lock this thread so everyone get their panties out of a wad!

Now if he came in here and started a random thread saying, "My Teg'r has 500 hp and can beat any 5 second domestic in Tallahassee," like our Tacoma friend we all know and love, the massive amount of Flaming would be justified.

I might agree that he didn't have to come in and say that Supra's are the holy grail of rice, because EVERYONE knows that the Skyline is the holy grail of Rice, but all the semi-rich ricers have to settle for the $50 coffee mug of rice, the Supra.

What makes you think that an integra cant run a 7 second 1/8th? People might say a full size ChevyVan cant run 12's, but i saw it the day i went to G-ville. There is a CRX back home that runs mid-high 7's in the 1/8th. He runs almost identically with a highly modded FD RX-7. If he came on here saying he could turn low 12's you'd probably jump all over his ass too, why is that?

I thought everyone on here was pretty cool with anything. Several of you have, in the past, said "fast is fast", but as soon as an import comes in here that claims to be quick, you go off. Crying about nitrous and shit. I would be willing to bet that with only slicks and a little more spray (after a rebuild) that the Teg'r could easily turn a 7 second 8th, might even be close without more nitrous. I will gurantee that by the time he moves over here he will be right in there with the fastest of you.

now i think it is time to lock this thread so everyone get their panties out of a wad!


eh, im done

bracket racing has nothing to do with speed, it's driver ability.


i always thought it just made you a good guesser? :shrug:




are you afraid i'll out drive you?
now thats up there with the whole "one day you just may be a true car tuner" comment from s-factor

[QUOTE=FL Zinc
That's what we've been trying to tell you. Are you arguing that its only fair if slower cars get a head start?[/QUOTE]

huh?????

no i'm not argueing that.
bracket racing is who can consistantly run they're time back to back with better reaction times then the other guy, not give the slower car a head start and see who gets there first.

heads up racing is a different story, i just know i don't stand a chance in a heads up race against most of you so i'm not even gonna bother trying. i like heads up racing but i like out driving people more then just being able to go faster then someone.

it doesn't take much skill to drop a bunch of money into a car and make it fast, it does however take a lot of skill to run within .05 seconds of your time over and over again with consistant .0 - .1 reaction times.

i'm not hating on heads up racing, its just not my cup of tea

There's a difference between respecting the car and respecting the driver. Fast is fast, unless its only chance at winning in bracket racing. FFW Gainesville last year, an Explorer Sport made it to the semis in Mod Motor, a bracket class. I'm going to run 9's when I get my shortblock, tranny, 9", turbos and fuel setup... but I'm doing it yet.

I'd still much rather be able to say, "I'm faster than you" instead of, "I drive my high 13 second car better than you drive your faster car".

not if you car is slow its not

my gf has a 2.0L non turbo golf that is the slowest fucking creation on earth, but ill be and amount of money after two passes down the track i could get it to run within .02-.05 every single pass. that doesnt mean im gonnna go on a bunch of boards running my mouth about how ive been to the track more than anyone and how ill be anyone in a race (but only if its dial in) . . .

racing your car requires driver ability, if you can't run with in a few hundreths of seconds of your times you can't compete against good drivers in the same class. watch some funny car and top fuel races the guys that do good are consistant

Mitsushitty? No not all 2g's get c-walk this is my second DSM, the first being a 1995 GS-T and I had well over 100,000 miles on it and no C-walk so stop saying that all of the 2g DSM's get C-walk, the 4g63 motor is considered one of the best ever 4 cylinder motors as we can handle close to 400whp on stock internals, I would love to see your honda motor on as much N20 as you can throw at it do that. I dont go around being a cocky mother f*cker on this forum, so neither should you. Gain some respect for V-8's, DSM'S, and Supra's for that matter too.

ok, i've bracket raced before and will again...FFW mod motor is an EXTREMELY difficult class to compete in, but don't forget the guys that are consistantly at the top are the guys with transbrakes and powerglides.....

however, that elusive 6K first prize check will keep me around until i can afford to build a heads up racing car. In any case, both can be fun, and both can be difficult. For just some street race or stupid internet pissing conteset though, bracket racing is gay.



Don't forget that if you're competeing in a heads up class, everyone has maxed their car out to what the rules allow, so in the end you still need driving skill to win a heads up race.......

if the bitching keeps up, i'm gonna lock this thread.....nevermind, T did. lol
