^^Once I get my sway bars on, and my springs and shocks, I'll take on a srt-4 on the road course. Or any 3sgte for that matter. It's not all about hp unless it's a drag. Most street races are drag races, but with the Celica, you have to consider other types of racing. I do love a high hp car, but it's really not going to help too much unless you get to some big strates.

Man I wish that was true but you're delusional, I don't care what you have handling wise if you have a 3 second lead on an srt-4 at the end of the course and he gets a small strait away your dead. I'm sure you're going to come back "You don't know how to drive" blah blah but seriously, you just don't stand a chance. Additionally the previous poster Pure_DX did not make himself look unintelligent but every post I have seen you make recently has done just that, I don't post often but I am honestly getting tired of your dreams you insist upon explaining every topic I have read you post in, your car is slow! ACCEPT IT OR SWAP IT!

Additionally "But I could race F1 cars every day without "blowing my motor or messing something up."" That’s not true, every race mile is equal to something like 100 or so miles on your engine, so if you race an f1 every day you would probably either blow something up, or mess something up, your car doesn’t like strain. Stop giving it to it.

That being said we are missing the family atmosphere we used to have, but frankly the lectures don't help, no one needs a dad in this family unless its an admin. Just be ready to learn, stupid questions should not and will not be insulted, its only comments that really arouse the crowd.

I'm just trying to say that hp doesn't matter too much on a tight track. You can't agrue with that. But you are right, if a swapped Celica had enough of a strate, I wouldn't have much of a chance. And by your logic, the racing an F1 car thing, even if I does put 100miles on the car per race, my econo motor should handle the high milage better than a turbo motor. I know my car is slow. That's an unargueable fact. I just would like people to take these cars as they are. You can still have fun with them and make them handle nice. No need to be depressing about it.

As far as the family atmosphere going away and me lecturing, I'm just trying to do my part. Just because I'm not a modderater doesn't mean I don't have the right to say something. Modderaters have pm'd me and thanked me for doing what I have before. It's not like I'm doing anything that is anti productive. If it turns out I'm wrong, I'll stop. You're the first person to say something negative about my attempts to bring this site back to the point it was.
