Honda junk and unreliable? lmafo are you ******* serious? Comparing honda and GM as far as build quailty and longetivity is much like apples to oranges. As far as a cheap performance plateform GM has quite a few but in terms of your everyday car they suck period. GM has to have one of worst resale value of any manufacturer. Just look at a c6 z06. What they did originally start off as 70-80k? Now you can find them a few years later with under 20k miles on them for 40k...

Not sure about that my car on KBB is worth 10k that being said its 10 years old and has 99k. Not bad, IMO. But GM's are some tough cars engine wise, i dont agree as much about their interior quality though. These opinions are about my f-body though, not talking for ALL GM vehicles, btw.

Now that Chevrolet brought out the 5th gen, look up the price on a comparable 4th gen Camaro to a 4th gen Trans Am. I guarantee the Trans Am will be more expensive because it is more "rare".
Interior quality on Fbodies is junk

Your value has went up a lot because Pontiac is gone.

Rolls are ******* gay period. They dont even have any kind of track to guage the ****. We rwd n/a v8 guys dont cry when awd wants to do dig runs. They are the one with full advantage. we run them from a dig. Only fwd guys cry for their roll race that doesnt matter. Go tell your local track you wana cross the staging lanes at 60 to see how much you improved your roll speed lmao. Rolls are a lame excuse for a car that cant 60ft. Botom line. This sport of making your **** go fast straight originated from dead stop for a reason. Dead stop also eliminates a ricer from learning how to drive.

Nope not what I said. I said what happened on the street when they ran from a dig. Stoppy got his *** handed to him. All stoppy did at the track was out tire him. After all this is the street racing section is it not?

Either way, you've posted up races that you have been in that were from a roll, so they must not be all that bad.

I see you posted it up and then took it down.....you should've left it up. When someone gets a bumper I would'nt say he took the hit. Looked like to me the Camaro and he took off about the same, just the Camaro started pulling him from the beginning.

The hit is huge in a dig race, even if it's just a bumper. Also, when he says "...he took off. I followed..." how does that look like they left at the same time and the Camaro started pulling right away?
Either way, that's all besides the point. If you say your comment was directed that the dig race then it was directed towards the dig race.
The the light turned green and he took off. I followed (he only had like a nose on me) but I knew it wasn't going to be good with these God awful tires!!!! He hit 2nd before me so I'm guessing he had gears. Anyways I hit 2nd and went sideways all through it 
He pulled a solid car on me and kept pulling.
Well I wanted 2nds and he did too.
We lined up close to 40mph, me in 2nd and him in IDK. I honked it off and on the 3rd we both left at the same time, it was a perfect start. We were pretty close with him inching ahead. I hit 3rd and again went sideways 
while he pulled half a car. He shifted and I pulled back some but after he went into 4th (before me 
) he did start a decent pull. At 110mph I would say he had a car on me. If I had traction I would say it would have been half a car.

You all do realize not everyone is interested in having a drag car. We have a few big power cars here that will only race from rolls simply because they can't hook. Not everyone is interested in running at the track. Hiho is apparently still a ******* idiot and I want to buy this civic, make a compilation of me beating fast LSx cars and then post it on here and laugh at everyone crying.

Well I guess stoppy should've been on the ball a little better. They were both spinning so that little bit would'nt matter much anyway.
