Are people honestly this dense? /rant

[DevilDougWS6]

ok so i have to vent a little frustration. I am not going to throw any names in here, and try to keep it calm. they know who they are.

why is it that people think their "stock-exhaust only" car is faster than a cam/exhaust/tune car? obviously both LS1s Im just curious to understand where logic comes into play here?

360rwhp > 320rwhp correct?
4.10 > 2.73 correct?

sooo i dont understand the logic behind some people thinking they are better than everyone else.

[bubba428]

because central and north jersey have alot of power plants...j/k

its the same reason honda kids wanna race a V8, to feel better about the size of their penis. even the girls.

bench racing sucks

bench racing sucks

unless your bench has a camed SBC

[DevilDougWS6]

i suppose....i wont loose sleep over it. im not the one that goes around talking **** to other people just for the sole purpose of making myself feel bigger.

why is it that people have to bother me about racing and ****? im not trying to prove anything to anyone. i just want a quick street car that looks nice. but everyone has to run their ****ing mouths for some ungodly reason.

mike, there was no bench racing involved. im just trying to figure out the mentality of some of my fellow humans.

[Mike]

if people were arguing about how fast a car could or would be.....without actually running said car or cars........there was bench racing

[bubba428]

my buddy that I live with used to talk alot of **** on my old T/A. his T/A has a 400, HSR, lunati cam, mid tube headers, computer chip, 3.73 rear and he couldn't out run my carbed 350. now that motor is in the lighter buick, with more done to it, and he swears that same T/A is gonna blow it away...some people just don't learn till you shut the down at the track, and then its still excuses

[bubba428]

it seems like he's saying the person was tring to talk smack and he was evading the bench

i wasnt disputing that. my post was created due to trying to understand why some people are stupid, and insist on the impossible.

[NJ Torque]

people are stoopid. not getting around that.

[stevethepirate]

Because talking **** is fun. Thats what it comes down to.

[TBSPW]

yeah its so true...i live in dover and almost everyday on the way to work some honda has to pull up next to me and jump the light as i look at them like dude some people do just drive these cars...but it is fun to stomp them from time to time to prove a point.

[GP99GT]

well...it is possible for a bolt on car to beat a cammed car...a lot of the time its all in the driver. coughalexcough

[MonmouthCtyAntz]

Huh? lol

[79CamaroDiva]

well...it is possible for a bolt on car to beat a cammed car...a lot of the time its all in the driver. coughalexcough

exactly.. Sorry alex.

[firehawk1120]

are they both the same type manual vs. manual? was the person just trying to be a dick on purpose. I've done that just because I thought the other person was a tool so I just make **** up that I know will piss them off. LOL

Mostly people talk trash because they are so insecure about themselves they need to try to make others look bad or foolish. You need to know when to walk away. I've said it before and I'll say it again my favorite saying is, "a wise man knows not to argue with a fool, from a distance people can't tell the distance."

[bandit88]

i have a guy at school who drives a brand new audi....... always trash talking American cars......

my thing is i drive my car because i LIKE my car..... not because my car is better than your car

he said to me one night in class "i know my audi can be your american trash"

and i replied "of course your car can i drive an lo3 duh. but years from now your car will be still considered a yuppy car while my car will always be cool"

The fact is, there are idiots on all sides. When I hear one, first thing I do is just walk away/ignore the trash talk. If they keep it up, I just simply invite them to the track to find out.

[Frosty]

Was this person truly talking smack or just messing around? You blew up on someone in another thread for just poking some fun.

[LTb1ow]

Your car is slow Doug, I am sorry to be the one to break it to you.

[Mike]

if a person with a ton of mods, has a bad tune....he can lose

if a person with a ton of mods, cant drive.......he can lose

reading a list of parts the car has, and deciding from that which car will win and lose, is just gonna lead to headaches

[LTb1ow]

Or lots of mods and ****** tires ;)

[Scrat's_Camaro]

my stock 3.8 will stomp any car on here











:mrgreen:

[Little G]

V6 > V8

Turbo I-4 owns all!

[Crayface]

if some dude came up to me and talked chit about his car beating mine, this is what i would do:
Proceed to break not one but both of his legs, and then tell him to race me 8-)

[98tadriver]

Doug, tell him you have a friend with a stock internals car who will run him ;)

[alamantia]

back in high school my buddy used to buy all the crap summit parts that made HP claims and ad up all the total HP claims of all his mods and ad them to the base HP of his car. Too bad the base 275HP + the 130HP (roughly $5000) of bolt ons only got his car into the high 14's did not equal 405 that he was telling everyone. When he finally dynoed it he found out it only had 278 HP

[Scrat's_Camaro]

lol

[creeper]

360rwhp > 320rwhp correct?
4.10 > 2.73 correct?

unless the 320hp car is an auto with a nice big stall. then you MIGHT have some competition, even with the terrible gears.

Eat it, I may not drive in a straight line very well but I know how to turn the wheel.

Or lots of mods and ****** tires ;)

[sweetbmxrider]

doug your car is slow. i'll race you! oh wait. damn.

[BigAls87Z28]

Huffy's dont count sucka..

Shut up about your slow ass car Doug. Everyone knows the 305 pwns.
Speaking of which...I wanted to go to etown tonight.

[NJ346]

Doug, tell him you have a friend with a stock internals car who will run him ;)

The kid in question knows about your car Ron lol. I am friends with the kid Doug is talking about.

To answer your question Doug, the car in question is probably only putting out about 25-30hp less than your car at the flywheel(Auto's eat more power to the wheels). Since his car is an Auto, he will practically always be a "perfect" driver. But with the stick, you have to be a pretty good driver....get more seat time at the track and then run him. And yea...I know you think I'm sticking up for him because I'm friends with him, but your car should obviously be a mid 11 second car(Just let Ron take it down the track), and the Auto car in question is no where near close to that. Until you can really drive the car, don't try and throw challenges out there like you did on the other site that this all stemmed from.

Just fyi, I put down 335 on dynojet and have gone 12.5x's @ 113.xx mph. And I have beaten that car in question at the track. So go learn how to drive the car and then run him. Take care...

i beat him once, i can beat him again. simple as that. it was only supposed to be a friendly challenge with him on spray but they took it personally and started with their "im better than you" attitude.

Then stomp him again to shut him up. Being humiliated in a race usually shuts up a cocky car owner.

nah, doug will never shut up when he gets beat :-P

i kid i kid 8-)

Well Doug, even though I am one of "them", I say go learn how to really drive your car and then beat him. I guess your not on that other board a lot, but the environment is a lot different over there and there is a lot of BS talk so you can't assume that they were thinking they were better than you. He simply said line it up and they'd find out. The race that he beat you in was when his car didn't have spray or tire. There's just too many factors, but on spray it should be a GW for him. On motor it will be close.

[Zero4488]

Whose bench racing? We're running this weekend....but yes....this full exhuast 3.23 has gone faster than your cam only car....and yes...my bolt on car has gone faster ET and MPH....

[Frosty]

Oh boy....the plot thickens.

[NJ346]

Your one of "them" !?!?!

Doug called us(Me, Zero4488, CamaroKid08731) two-faced so he's obviously got hard feelings towards at least one of us. I don't have any problems with him...

[Camarokid08731]

so doug... if you honestly think that a cam only car putting down 360 is going to walk another bolton ls1 with tire a tune and a 100 shot then i think you are the one who needs to do some homework not me.

-Rob

[NJ346]

This all started because camarokid08731(the car in question) posted a video of his car running and Doug commented it by sending out the "friendly" challenge, and camarokid said bring it.

[NJ346]

Doug's car is cammed?

yes.

[Camarokid08731]

Hmmnn, didn't even know it.

the more you know the better lol

[Camarokid08731]

all this over HIM challenging me for another run....

[sweetbmxrider]

i'd like to see it at the track. whos givin me a ride :D

[Camarokid08731]

I'll see what I can do. I'll have to throw the front plate on the camaro before I head out though because TR is getting strict with the stupid laws.

[sweetbmxrider]

yeah most places will be getting tougher on everything esp easy revenue. glad i'm not driving now. i could probably get a ride out there too as long as nothing crazy is going down.
