Default Probably shouldnt run your mouth if you cant even change your own clutch

Long story short- guy and his friends start running their mouths about his "700 hp" evo and how its the fastest car in the area and no one can beat him even though he hadnt raced a single person yet. Then he calls out my buddy's 500 whp (dynoed) STI built from the ground up and says when he beats the STI he is going after the STI owners 200 whp hyabusa. Needless to say my buddy calls me up to bring out my procharged z28 and go find this guy to teach him a lesson in tact. When we show up the guy still has a 30 day tag on the car we get out on the free way and the guy didnt seem anxious to race either of us. finally he slows down to do a 60 roll and before he knew it the race was over. from 60 to 120 we both pulled atleast 8 car lengths and we didnt hear much from the guy the rest of the night nor did we rub it in his face. So lesson to all- if you didnt build your car dont assume it the fast thing out there. modesty and humility goes a long way plus it saves you from looking like a *******.

Since when does not swapping your own clutch disqualify you from having a fast car?

I'm going to use this on all of the owners of UGR Lamborghinis. It's quite obvious they didn't build their cars. Good kill though.

Sorry no one took a video but dont worry there were plenty of witnesses lol. The car has potential to make 700whp, it's an Evo8 with a fully built stroker motor. No where in the post does it say if you don't build your own car it's not fast. I'm saying if your went out and bought a car that someone else said is fast (no paperwork to prove it) and your haven't even gotten it fully dynoed and your calling people out and saying it will beat anything in the area it just make u look like a jerk. Especially since the people he was calling out were people he was asking to put his clutch in bc he couldn't do it.

BTW, you can't knock someone that doesn't work on their own car because it just means they are probably busy in other aspects of their life or don't have the tools and skillset to do it themselves. Be proud that you do your own work, but don't look down on others because they don't.

While I can change my own parts and what not in my car, I'm a good American, I pay other people to do it for me
