I typed that wrong. My bad. What I meant was the difference in 60' from the best street driven 6 speed I know of (Taner) was a 1.39 60' and the Ronnie Duke run was on a 1.24 60'. I meant to compare the two 60's which is actually a difference of .15 in short times on both respective runs. Not to take anything away from Taner. I am extremly impressed with his 60' and ET for that matter. It's hard to not be impressed by the fastest street driven M6 F-body (LT1 no less) in the country.

Again, my bad. I usually reply to this thread early in the morning

 

I agree with you and respect your reasoning. Just remember that properly setup TH400's are not just mashing the gas. Not all autos are computer controlled so there can be more driver interaction with autos then some manual guys think.

 

No. But then again, I don't recall needing your permission to give one either. It's not like my point of view does not have logic, safety and "the law" backing it up.



Oh, Please. You were the one who said this:

Now you want me to believe that these 65+ races all happen under safe and "legal" conditions? Sorry but I was not born yesterday.

 

I'm done. I've said my peace, and your view won't change neither will mine. I go to the track once or twice a month, but if someone wants to race on the street I will find a deserted area and go for it. That doesn't change.

 

you are absolutely correct. and i agree totally. but what makes me mad is when you race someone with a computer controlled auto (4L60E) in your stick shift and they beat you because you missed a shift or somthing, then they tell you how bad of a driver you are. well if he had a stick then i could see his argument, but he had an automatic.....so all he did was feed gas into the "dog", not feed it and walk it at the same time.

 

That would just show you that the driver is an ***. I personally would never tell someone that they are a bad driver because they miss a shift. None of us are perfect, I would just say hey good race, let's run them again.

 

exactly. i wouldnt either. its people like that that hide behind their 4L60Es and talk **** that **** me off.

 

I had someone try to run me with their stick shift and then complain to me that they need tires. Hey you came to me, don't make excuses afterwards. That was a mustang owner btw. Another guy tried to line it with me and he noticed my tires and backed off. He was a manual owner as well but he was a very cool guy since I talked with him afterwards and told me that he saw my tires and thought twice about running me.

 

thats awesome.....its good that you dont talk **** to the people that lose to you because of their inability to drive or mistakes made........thats all that pisses me off, thats all.

 

It's all for fun anyway isn't it? Now when money is an issue things get complicated, so I stay away from that side of the sport. I won't personally make bets but if people make bets on me or against me, that's their decision.

Oh that second owner in my previous post had a 2002 NBM SS

 

yeah it gets complicted and starts drama when money is involved. i go to N't'l Trail and race for 7 bucks and make ricers look like ****. but some of them can put me in my place.

 

All for fun though. I TRY to respect all cars but the owners on the other hand can make doing that difficult at times.

 

i'll say it ONE MORE TIME....the mule from hardcore is NOT the quickest/fastest LS1 in the country...there are those two other LS1 cars in the 6s (yeah, 1 full second quicker than the mule)

yes it is. prove us wrong and we will concede. otherwise we have the proof that says it is.

 

dude, do a search for CASPER on this site, or go to wheel to wheel's website and you'll see it for yourself. ****, ronnie duke himself owns a 6 second ls1 powered (kinda) car...get a clue

 

He's talking about this car

oh...by the way, just for an added bonus, neither of those are over 370 cubic inches.. but the Hardcore car was running the new Warhawk block and heads from World Products.

 

hey guess what? thas not an LS1. its an iron block. there were never any iron block LS1's.

 

dude...you get dumber with every post you make...seriously, get a clue, look around on the site here a little. the LSx platform of motors come in both iron and aluminum versions and several different sizes 4.8L-6.0L god i feel dumber from reading your last post.
