the insurance is set to be back on the car a few days before the march meet(in time to dyno :D). so anytime from the first week in april on i plan to be ready to run everybody :) i think a sunday T&T at atco would be best. usually a reasonably small crowd so we can get all of our grudges in. |

I agree, gotta love the bench racing, otehrwise I would be extremely bored.
Anyway, 383, I never said that your times were "bad", just you picking on someone and saying what you did when you yourself have nothing more than a modified motor with easy horsepower (n2o). I could build a similar motor and put juice on it, that easy and cheap!! BUT it takes a real man to get completely rediculous and go for the stars!!!!!! Also, it is up to each individual person to do what they want to their car. It also relates to that said person's budget. I just have a larger budget but it also took me 9 months to acheive that budget. I think the best thing in the world is that each and every one of us out here has the right frame of mind in building...#1 an american car, #2 to do the mods that they can afford, #3 to do the mods that make their car "their car" My car is far from a trailer queen, I drive it as much as I can. That being said, it does see the trailer a lot only because I don't have enough seats to fit myself, my 5 yr old son, and my 18 month old daughter in the car. Next car to be built...(which will be out in about 2 years)...can be a daily driver, will run respectable mid 10's, have enough seating for at least 4 if not 5, can compete at a car show, will NOT run n2o, can drive cross country without a hiccup. |
yea well my next car....
heard that one before |
In 20 years, I have built, owned, raced, wrecked, etc more cars than I care to remember. I think a lot of people out here have more than one car. One is a project being built, one is done, etc. I am in the process of building a g-body to do the things I mentioned above. AND, it's not my "next" car, it's just an additional one.
|
yeah N20 is easy Hp.... whats your blower? anyone with 3500 bux can supercharge there car... power adder is power adder..... N20...Turbo....Blower
|
True, a blower is easy HP also, but the difference is the bottom end. I can add nitrous to ANY car without it doing major damage, but with a blower, turbo, etc you have to be real careful.
|
nitrous cant cause damage? damn y did i spend all that money getting forged internals
|
My yellow neon gots you all covered.........it goes 9's in the 1/4 mile
. . . . . . . 9 minutes ;) |
I never said nitrous CAN'T cause damage, you are not getting my point. Nitrous can be added to ANY motor. With a blower, you can't just "slap" one on. Any forced air induction creates extreme amounts of pressure on the bottom end. I can slap a 50 shot on my chevy conversion van and it won't hurt a thing, pop a blower on it, KABOOM!!
That's my point, n2o is a poor man's hp adder IMO, BUT it is also one of the best ways to increase performance. My motor may be blown, but it is also set up to handle n2o!! |
blown rat can step up to all those challenges i will vouch for that! anyone wishing to challenge should pony up some money for the track rental, and none of this "i work that day" ******** TAKE A SICK DAY!!

ill race him! Im not skeered!

Brakes are over rated because my old Z went 127 mph on spray and I had no issues stopping with JUST the front brakes lol...just my 2 cents.....So, just go racing and prove your cars worthiness!!

if you have balls to tell people to step up then you shoudl have balls to run in front of a larger crowd on a street night or regular weekend test and tune anyway. |

Brakes? You know how heavy thoes things are? Just throw it into reverse.
(another attempt to derail this thread) I belive that this N vs C vs S just went to NJ vs PA. |
Wow!! I am feeling the love!! I see some good grudge runs coming out of this..
