if you guys want to measure your dicks go to the lounge, Lupe, drag is fun we do it out here in Motegi though 1/8 is pretty short i prefer the 1/4. a section dedicated to it might be neet but tainting the 3rd gen section is just not right, if your gona post times and mods cool advice on how to get faster better questions welcome but if your trying to start fights do it some where else i want to see **** on cars not see two grown men whine like little girls. buy the way my 1/4 last moth was 9.4 and that is close to stock engine is bein gstreet ported as we speak next month should be faster

My car is essentially done now other than cosmetics like fender lips and paint so if someone is paying for it I'd be game for bringing my car down there later in the summer. I'll race your gutted drag only car with my road race / street car

I noticed you backed down from both of us using the same car to establish who the better driver is I haven't raced seriously in years, you'd have a huge advantage.

I'm waiting to see the death threats in PM's like HDP was sending me during the IC debate. Here's a snippit of one. BTW shouldn't people be banned for that kind of childish trash? It is a criminal offense to threaten violence even over the internet, terroristic threats.

"Do you know me... obviously not. You spout off all that B.S. behind your keyboard just as most do on here. Do you want to know who I really am... if you value what little life you posses, probably not....Trust me, if you were to step out of your little world with your way of thinking, you would not live more than 2 seconds. The day will come Kevin T Wyum, when I will have the pleasure of meeting you face to face. Until then, keep up the good work.

Gutted drag car? Mine isn't gutted, the only thing missing is the bins/plastic because of a accidental fire . I've still got the door panel, full carpet, plastics and even my stereo

Death threats? I don't even know you. Why would I threaten your life?

I could care less about your gutted-ness....it's that damn locker spool Ford rear end w/ mosers that gets me. But that won't even be a big concern was you drop in the T350/T400 on a transbrake.

People always have something to cry about. But your 2200lb car w/ 600+rwhp on a solid rear and a transbrake (when it happens) won't be much of a street car, even with the door panels and stereo.

I don't have a spool and I have the stock 5 speed. My 8.8 is completely streetable. What are you crying about anyway?

You still mad that you couldn't make any of your cars fast?

I know you are the stock 5 speed for now.....I said when it happens, cause that 5 speed will be out before summer.

I am not crying about anything, I like my cars to drive on pump gas and be able to turn corners w/o my locker bouncing my car around and making me spill my beer.

Yeah, my cars have always been the suck....but I have never dedicated myself to building a "drag" car. So I have to make sacrifices to my 1/4 mile to allow for "streetability". Maybe one day, I will be as cool as you....but I doubt it.

Eric FTW.

How long have I been talking about running an automatic yet I still have my stock 5 speed? If it happens, it happens....... because we know that nobody runs automatics with a transbrake on the street

Twisties? Give me a break....... I remember back in the day when all Scott talked about was drag racing/street racing. Remember when you used to call everyone out on STLSR

My car drive nice and smooth..... no beer spilling here. My bucket rides like a caddilac

Again, I passed on the spool because of streetablilty. I run a tracloc.

I still enjoy street racing, but I have always kept an IRS, 5 speed, full interior, decent suspension setup, etc...under my cars. I know you have been talking about a auto for a while, but I was pretty sure this was your year....especially w/ that new power level. Who knows, maybe you'll just keep banging away on the stock 5spd.

And Wes called out everybody...not me. My T78 was not going to be that fast.....I wanted to run you and maybe a few others like Shane. I never went domestic hunting, Wes' 700+whp Camaro was the one looking to pick fights, I was just trying to set them up for him.

I have a few cars right now that I am working on....nothing as fast as yours, but hopefully I will have something soon that won't have to hang it's head so low when it walks past you.

1/8th mile is easier on the car and it's great for cars that hook like a ****. I'd rather run 1/4 mile but I'll be running 1/8th mile for my first times out to dial in the suspension/get used to the car.

How you doing woman?
