That's no longer what this is about, I already acknowledged that he did improve his car.
However, when you start throwing in ricer math, that's retarded. "Bro, I saw another car with similar mods do this, clearly mine is that fast"
Proceeds to run .8 seconds slower.
"But bro, I still trapped 102!" Congrats, you still had runs left after that. Why'd you never get a better run?

If you are only running 13.9 @102 in SoCal then I highly doubt you pulled on a lightly modded SRT8 Jeep either unless it was moon racing to 160 mph. I ran 13.4 @ 101 in my lightly modded SRT8 Jeep.

So you think the best way to join our forums is to make your first post in the kill section claiming to beat a WS6 in your 14 sec civic....

Yeah the only way I see it is if they started from a really high roll. It's no secret that they aren't the greatest from a roll due to their size and weight. But a dig or even low roll, I don't believe it.

Nice MySpace angle on the camera. And I love the "excuse" title on every video
And sticking a sticker on a BMW makes it, "Not stock"

We are talking about SoCal here where the 17 year old kids get a brand new 328 from daddy, plastidip the wheels and the emblems, and then get out there and front as much as possible.

You can substitute 328 for A4, A5, C250, G35, or G37.

It makes a little more sense with the 60-125 race, but I'd imagine you only slightly pulled him once the speeds got into the triple digits. It is true that you trap similar to my Jeep, but I race in DA that is over 4500. Significant difference to the DA that you see. I won't try to bench race and guess exactly what I would trap at Sea Level, I just know it would be higher than here.

So by your ricer math computations you should be able to beat a 4th and 5th gen camaro using a 335i as the comparison tool?
