Default Apparently This Ricer Knows More About Our Cars Than We DO...

Wow, has anyone read the bullshit posted by wrxpeed? He's a newbie, but is fast on his way to making sure we all know he's a dipshit. Here's his BS in the LS1 v.s. 3000GT VR-4 thread in the Street Racing/Kills forums. (the link begins with the second page)

I can't believe the ignorance of this idiot.

This type of crap always happens in the Kill section... which is why I spend a lot of my time there Ricers are so easy to make fun of. I find it funny that he thinks a 1.94 60' is good I wonder if he realizes that many of us aren't that far away from that with bone stock cars.

No kidding. 2 tenths of a second may be a big gap at the 1/4 mile mark, but it sure as hell isn't at the 60' mark. And again... who the hell only races to 60'???

Subaru is Japanese. They're decent cars, but not when they're owned by f*ckoffs who don't know what they're talking about like wrxpeed. Also people oogle over them because they all have AWD, as if there aren't any other vehicles out there with AWD. I think they're just as average as any other car out there. I like the STi, but the rest of their lineup is boring.

actually i think subaru is owned by GM .
anyway, rice is more like a state of mind than anything else. it can be embodied in almost any car with the right(wrong)thoughts/actions.

Subaru is not owned by GM. Saab is owned by GM. Subaru is not European it is Japaneese.

Im tired of people missing the big picture her...actually Im sick of it.

So what if a WRX gets a 14.1 1/4 mile time!

LOOK AT THAT MPH!

98MPH at best?

stock LS1..108-110. You have any idea of the gap bewteen those two!?

Try racing that car on the expressway where a cars REAL POWER is shown against and LS1.

Well, I'm new here and I'm getting into the LS1 world, but I'm very knowledgeable with LT1's. I just traded my 03 Monte Carlo SS for a bone stock, pristine, 02 Z28 2 days ago and I can tell you the stock ran .2 sec faster in the 1/8 than my Monte. I did take on a STI and an Evo with my wifes 94 IMP SS, which has a few mods and needless to say, "Nothing like the power of a pushrod V-8!!!" But she also beat me last night when we finally lined them up. lol

hell I pulled 1.8's on my stock tires in my wrx. 1.94's are definatly nothing to be bragging about. My wrx ran a 13.7 @ a whopping 99.5 mph. It was fast up to 60 mph, but then it died off really fast.
