Referral?
When you give someone a link to GTP with your referrer ID # that would give you a referral(which is not a bad thing). We have a 3 strikes policy. 3 strikes, and you're gone. Apparently you've already received 2.

posting a retarded site with horrible times proves nothing. For an 87 M3 it shows a time 1 second higher than an 88 for 0-60. There is no difference between those cars. What a joke.
If you stated the corette is weak before, because it only ran 14s, and he showed you it ran a 12.8, than that is proving you wrong. All of this **** going back and saying "oh well I didnt look" is crap. You stated what a vette ran, it didnt matter if the time you found that led you to believe a 427 vette ran 14s was wrong. You stated it as fact. Its your own ignorance for believing it.
You dont care what I think because you are ******** mod. I dont like you, you know it, you dont care.
Strike 1.

Questionable times posted on some little kid's website prove nothing wrong. Do any of you know for a fact that 12.8 is a real time? No. I find it funny how you find one high twelve and you believe it, but there's twenty sites that say high thirteens, low fourteens, but noooo...

Thats why I dont like the internet. But lets assume they are all right. The 14s were possibly right also. But they were with a ****ty driver and bad tires. Im not saying the sites with 13s and 14s are wrong, Im just saying they were done by some bad drivers. Its like what I think you or someone else said about magazines. We were looking to compare times for the s2000 and evo 8. Plenty of places had them, but some were higher because the drivers were bad.
Good defense with the "false site claims" thing. Now all we need is to find a source we know is oging to be believable. Either a person or a reputable website. Maybe some car mags have had times for the car before?

Will the two of you idiots shut up? I kept reading thinking that one of you was going to see the light, but apparently logic wasn't available when they dished out the grey matter to you two.
The '67 Corvette was beastly fast...in 1967. In fact, it was so fast, that it's still competitve today. No, not competitive with an '02 Z06, but it can compete with some real nice modern hardware like the R34 Skyline and E46 M3. And it sure was competitive with the rice-burner.
Is a 13 second 1/4 mile fast? Everything's relative. To my WRX, yes, that's fast. Beat me by two seconds...or so. To my imaginary McLaren F1, 13 is a very unlucky number. Both the 427 and F1 are fast. Both cars are ballsy. Both cars are 30 years apart!
Just shut up. It's idiotic to keep carrying on like this.

Like I said earlier...12.8's, or whatever, may be fast to you, but it's not to me. I don't consider a 12 to be fast when there are 7, 8, and 9 second street driven cars out there.
It's just not "ballsy" to me. It's just an old Corvette that's got a loud V8.

dude take it easy hes from new zealend and plus a BENCH racer who gets his facts off magazines and websites, probably never really experienced what the hell hes talking about, like most "experts" around here. i see all-motor 4 banger hondas SMOKE vipers and '01 911 tubros at the runs...Originally posted by Josh
Honestly? In real life I probably would have lost my patience with you, and commited my first murder.
Do you not realize how patient, and forgiving, I've been with you? Apparently not. I gave you like 4 oppurtunities to tell me if you wanted me to ban you, or let you stay. Every single other moderator here would have seen that you already had 2 previous warnings, and would have banned you immediately without thinking twice about it. If I would have known that you would have continued talking **** to me...I would have banned you as well.
You don't believe that I looked for a time? I couldn't care less what you think, or believe. I would provide you with links, but you already said that you didn't give a **** about them.
heh too bad they didnt race for slips

I dont know about an NA honda being that quick. Im estimating a b18c5 totally decked out would make near 300hp, put that in a crx and its pretty quick. But I dont know.
I still say drag racing is pretty dumb. FWD, japanese, tin can mobiles are even worse. A tuned small displacement import may be faster than a 427, but if you think thats ballsy........
I know josh, you never said it was. I would assume you would think it would be a piece of trash because it doesnt run "9s".

No you dont. I used to read a lot of scc magazine before I got sick of reading the same issue over and over. All of the feature cars were the same, with the same type of tool for an owner. My taste in cars have changed since then.
Remember though, start with a larger engine, and have a higher potential output for NA. Not quite the same hp/liter, due to better engineering
, but a 5 liter engine can make much much more with no forced induction than a puny 1.8. And when your talking about a car having balls, I dont consider a "blender motor" to have any.

well the easiest way to figure out why people like 4 bangers is that there easy to work with and easy to maintain, 4 cylinders less than a v8, but i do agree, i love the v8 rumble, i just get sick and tired of people like maloo saying "get a v8"... all the ****en time
just like some dumb**** at the supercars.net forum saying "so what do you think of the gm 454"...
i should go there and ask: what do u think of the ford 502?

Thank you for a lesson on the obvious, Sherlock.

Take a few prozac, and calm down, okay? I am fully aware that the Vette is stock. My "pussie" Hondas? I posted a video of a Honda Civic that I found to be impressive. How does that make it, or anything else, my "pussie" Honda?
Put the same der der derrr...blah blah blah. I love it when people say that crap. OBVIOUSLY a HUGE V8 is going to end up faster than a 1.8 liter 4 cylinder.
How about we give both cars equal horsepower, and see what happens?
Didn't think so.
