nope never did thats the only on i wish i had taken to the track ah well

 

Oh... I thought you said it was like 12-13 second car... something like that... were you just bench racing? you stupid ricer...

 

Sorry Cuda didnt mean to hurt your feelings guy

 

15.9 second 98 turbo dsm?! wtf. that's about 1 second too high for even a bad driver. someone must have forgotten to shift out of second...

when it comes to dsms, normally it's your GSX and Tsi AWD guys who actually know something about cars, and tend to have fast ones. the base model guys are either compeltely car ignorant, or complete ricers 98% of the time. the GS-T and Tsi (no awd) guys can fall either way, but i find ricish tendencies prevail frequently.

 

Man, for you guys that haven't dragged... you're missing out. Drag racing is the funnest sport I've ever taken part in (if you wanna call it a sport)

and a turbo DSM should be a low 15 second, high 14 second car, bone stock. He prolly has no idea hwo to drive it...

Skarecrow is pretty much right on the mark about the drivers, though.

 

Yeah, I think that about sums it up...

 

hummm yeah well think of it this way its a sport if you cant drink while playing it and i have never hurd of any one running a 9 seckond 1/4 mile while chugging a beer. and if you can drink while playing it (golf, soft ball, croquay, and frisbie golf) its a game.

 

where is that lovely video of a modded dsm getting *** raped by the lingenfelter vette? that was a great video...hmm

 

 

Heres a link to a DSM getting raped by a Vette, the description says its just a Vette with Lingenfelter head work and a 150 shot, but i've seen the video before and they said it was twin turbo so I don't know. Either way the DSM gets it's *** handed to him.

I'm pretty sure that's a supercharged vette... not a Lingenfelter.

 

i've seen the guy's homepage. it is neither supercharged (well, scarily enough it is NOW, but it was not at the time of that video), nor a lingenfelter... authough unfortunatly i forget what it really is.

 

That's been all over the web as a lingenfelter tho...I 'member seeing it in the mutl exchange

 

I have seen guys at the 1/8 mile track around here drinking beer and then get into there car and run it down the track.

 

apparently it's a doug rippie motorsports Z51R.

 

Lol that's the best part the 15.9 was faster than the runs by any of the other turbo dsm's there that night. That was the best time any of them posted all night. That one had a lovely blow off valve to that you could hear from the pits. The guy probably didn't know how to drive but if that was the case the 5 other dsm's there were totally clueless. Which makes it all the more funny to me.

 

It's all motor I believe. But the DSM in the video is only a low 13 second one. So for a vette to walk away like that one did I would bet either a stroker or cam and heads. Maybe both? Geez I wanna see what it runs now with the supercharger though!

 

Don't mean to post ***** but I also neglected to mention there were 2 supras there that night. The best time out of the supras was by the twin turbo one it was a 14.5. The other was running low 15s all night. I only managed a 13.6 for some reason though my computer was jacking up my shift points. It wouldnt allow my auto to shift over 4000 rpm in any gear. I later found out it was in the tuner that it had jacked up something and lowered the shift points. Well my friends silverado is a 96 with a vortec supercharger and a mild cam. He also has a shift kit torque convertor headers and positrac conversion kit. He was on stock tires with like 30k miles on them at least and like a 205 width. He pulled 13.3 which I was thoruoughly impressed by. But conditions were at 1600 feet above sea level I believe and the humidity wasn't so great. All the turbo cars were suffering that night.

 

auctually that is before he got hsi suprecharger. he did alot some engine work him self and he had a 35 shot of nos. thats why he gives the DSM a head start when race because he was trying to turn his nos on. but heres his website. the supercharger sticks out of the hood so u know he doesn;t have it in the video.
