After I found out the way the GT owner was acting.. Well deserved!
Exotics in my eyes aren't worth their money. All I care about is straight line, so no poster on my wall of anything except Fbodys!

Did you read past the first two posts or are you the typical butt hurt GTO owner, you sure do sound like it.
I hate racing from a roll and what not, my comment at he time was VERY valid for the reasoning behind it. In this situation the Porsche owner got exactly what he deserved.
But, with the obvious comprehension skills you have, you knew that and was joking with that post.

BTW, I've owned 5 real F-bodies, you know the kind with V8's in 'em, but that was back in the 90's and early 2000's when they were still considered "cool". Now most 98-02 F-bodies are just considered humongous piles of crap.

Butt hurt GTO owner? Well at least I'm not some mullet wearing previous decade F-body owner who is missing half his teeth and has sex with his sister on weekends at the trailer park.

Its a good thing mine isn't "most".
I could go out tomorrow and get a GTO, but they are ugly and over weight with the same modability. No reason for all the baggage.
You talking about the vortech supercharged NBM formula that ran mid 11s?
I'm not sure if that was supposed to be a come back or not. I can tell the entry level mullet/trailer park comment was, but not sure about the other part.

According to this list a 2004 year model Carrera should run 11.1. So, when I saw this video I figure the driver should be able to rip at least a 12 flat. LOL @ the 12.76.
That GTO has a great launch.

Hmm Ricer comments? People take cars to the track all the time for benchmark acceleration tests and they are not necessarily racers or race cars. How many times do you see a car on here for sale and one of the first two things people want regardless of the car are "Dyno and track slips".
Nothing I said was a ricer comment. The Porches were never built for the 1/4 mile, they are built for top end, and twisty s and without a lot of serious work the would stomp a GTO or any F-Body.
So am I impressed that a GTO built for the strip beat a Porche GT... No, I'm not. Would I be more impressed if it beat the Porche GT at its own game...YES I would be flabbergasted.
The driver of the Gt though seemed ignorant to this though taking his Porche GT to the 1/4 mile drag strip to show off his performance. Stock for stock though lets see the GTO keep up with the GT even in the 1/4 mile....
Built car vs Stock car......no surprises and nothing I said had anything to do with being a "ricer". Just simple facts regarding the line up of these vehicles...
a 1 mile drag strip would better show off the Porche GT but its FAIL for the Gt owner for taking it to the 1/4 mile strip and Fail to you for calling my comments "ricer" comments...

Fact is, GTO was modded and GT wasn't, doesn't matter what would with either one of them having different mods.
I would agree with you 100% if the GT owners hadn't ran his mouth.

GT owner talked **** and got what he deserved.. You don't talk **** to cars built for the 1/4 mile at a 1/4 mile drag strip with your stock exotic.

Well I agree the GT owner got what he deserved. Without a doubt. That part I wasn't really debating. the DRIVER got owned and that's just what should have happened in that instance.

Why all the hate? He has an American musclecar and whooped a porsche. Good kill. I am stationed here in Germany and constantly get harassed on the autobahn by Euro cars, win some and lose some, mostly give em a run for their money.
