That goes a LONG way in vehicles at these performance levels. Too many guys I know with badass cars making gobs of power and losing to cars and bikes they should romp on because they're afraid of breaking something. I like to build my **** "backwards" so that it can handle the power before I try to put it down. In my mind, it's not backwards.

Or built it power first the way everyone else does and just accept from the start that if you wanna go fast, **** breaks and you WILL have to replace parts eventually. And they're gonna be expensive. It's actually one of the big draws for me when it comes to bikes. I keep this thing between 12k and 16k for 15-20 minute sessions straight all day long at the track days and then take it to the strip the next weekend after an oil change. Most I've ever had to replace was a clutch, and I just put a stock OEM back in. Normal maintenance, tires, and brakes aside from that.

I remember that night when the Honda shocked baker, good times. I think I was riding with Tim cuz my car is too slow for Seattle.
I was a good 3-4 cars behind Spiker when he got on it, first time I ever seen that car run.

Never thought a honda could actually be fast, Mitch and Spiker changed that real quick.

Man, nothing but crickets chirping on the multiple **** storm posts ripping my brother. To the lame asses that talked all that **** behind the keyboard and are not man enough to own up after a STREET CAR ( i.e. no weight reduction, street tires, windows that roll down, AC, FULL interior etc) almost took out your holey grail? Grow a set.

Seriously, a guy with a 14 second LT1 camaro was running his mouth. PATHETIC.

You guys run your mouths, talk all that **** about some one like you would never meet them some time and then when you do, not a friggin peep. ******.

LIFESADRAGQUEEN, just so you know, im not as cool headed as my younger bro. If I ever see you in person there wont be a word exhanged, you will be flat on back and wondering where your teeth went. So much **** comes out of your mouth for such a tiny dude, obviously you need this to happen so you can become an adult.....

On to the next post.....

DC,

You seem to be the only non ******* in the group. You got what you wanted, and probably more than you wanted. Might explane the " issues" you had with traction and asking for a 45MPH roll race? Hows it feel getting hole shot by a car with street tires, real street tires?

You pulled Sticks car by 1 - 2 cars on a 45+ roll, own up bro, the results were not what you expected and his car is within a couple of mods of taking that BK crown from you and you know it.

You mad?

His car runs hard dave, it would take 40+rwhp to put me ahead in that last race. Diet's car could not dig because of tune issues when he let off the gas while pedaling when it spun.

I'm just hoping that he doesn't get his tune figured out and "find" another 40-50rwhp!

1-2 Because we ran into traffic? I was only halfway through 3. Its pretty obvious I couldnt hook from a dig on a 40 degree night. I even uploaded the video . Nothing to hide in my camp, the car does what it does. It isnt perfect. I had to park it like four times to reset the silly computer, but it's not like I duck races from anyone (ever). No one has just shown up with some really really fast **** yet. It's only a matter of time.

Seattle is basically sea level... Id guestimate our "spots" elevation maybe 100-150 feet
Any of these 1000rwhp Hondas that outrun Liter bikes dig race or do you **** roll race up there?

Dig race is where it's at man. Takes skill to make a car leave hard on the street. A monkey can roll race a car! Takes no skills.. I've seen 11 second cars take down low 10 second cars on the street because the faster dude couldn't launch his car on the street.

And with the physical threats comes a warning and a shutdown of this thread. No physical threats of any kind will be tolerated on this site. If you guys wanna continue conversation about this gathering, do so in the new thread they created with the results and keep it civil.
