[playr158]

well i gutted everything from my front seats back
every plastic, foam, nut and bolt that i could remove i did.....

slapped on my 14s
dropped down the air pressure and put on my AEM cai

and my time went from a 18.1 second to a 17.4 second tonight

my launch was pretty good hopped for a few feet but it pulled really strong and did well i think

oh and i saw a 6gc GT about 6 cars infront of me
he ran a 17.3 woot my ST is .1 behind!

Do you know why people started putting the body kits on and the big wheels? It's to make them look like racecars. Same reason people put the big wings on, but body kits and big wheels are found much more acceptable for some reason. You've got that thing bagged, don’t you? And I know you've got a body kit. And I think you're running 17s-18s normally. I bet you've got a loud "race inspired" exhaust too. About the wheel thing, there are plenty of lightweight, and better choices to make your car handle better. Same thing goes for the body kit. They are race inspired and with the right one you can reduce drag and increase down force, and exactly the same for a good wing. But you don't need any of those if your running above a 14sec max in the quarter, I guess maybe a 15. People laugh at imports, because most think they're dumb, and do stupid things to their cars. People just assume that because I drive and import, I like systems and big shiny wheels. I'm trying to change this image, but having a difficult time due to the abundance of ricers. Your just as bad as any ricer I've ever seen, and you give imports a bad name. I've seen your headlight conversion, and the money you've spent on your car. This doesn’t exclude you, it just makes you a ricer with talent and money.


Note to all: I'm sorry about being so mean. I make a point to never say mean things to people, but I feel I've been pushed to the edge. That, and I'm at my parents house visiting for a bit, and I'm cranky. I know I'll feel bad about saying these things once I've gotten home and relaxed. But right now, I feel it needs said.

EDIT: Heck, I'm sorry now. I've got pinned up rage against all kinds of import drivers and I seem to be taking it out on playr158. Just to let you know it's not as personal as it sounds playr.

Listen rook, we all have a right to be on here. And we all have a right to express our opinions. Ya don't like someone's opinion? Just bitch at em like everyone else does. This is not some middle school board where everyone has to be supportive toward eachother.
