Come on 1QuickNotch, stop tooting your horn. I mean, posting kill stories is NOT what this forum is about...

Alot of people seem to believe that if there is a faster car out there, you are not allowed to post kills. Well, then this forum is moot. Alot of you people really need to ease up, or just use more **** lube.

Oh yah also last night when i was in my garage working on my car, some kids up the street came and were talking to me, then they start telling me of some fast hatchback around modesto that is suppost to run 10's. I was like damn i need to see this.
LOL, well ok then you should have said that. I mean if you said "wait till I get my car back together its apart right now" Then its totally understandable. IWas just saying generally when people race someone missies a shift, someone jumps etc..So racing for money is not alwaya a good idea...SS14PSI was there a night when money was on the line, not exactly a fun night

Oh as for the hatch that runs 10's, please tell me its not red? If its the hatch I think their talking about that car would be lucky to run high 12's. I have seen it run and lose to my buddies Sti with bolt ons, the STi ate him up 4 times in a row. There is another guy that has a hatch with a K20 in it that is supposed to run 11's. He owns that new shop on Emerald (dont know the name) but if its Tommy's old hatch that their talking about, sorry but its not a 10 sec car.

That's oh so true. My dad about this neighbor that had some car that was running in the 9's (1/4), but people complained about him becuase he always brung it out at night. My dad said that he hadn't heard the car in years. I'll be damned if that car didn't come out to wreak havoc on the neighbor's sleep a couple days later.

Could Hear it's open exhaust, sounded like a top fuel dragster. The next day there was rubber all over a nearby street . I was amazed. To bad they are tearing up the street, ...................Oh the memories.

Sorry for going off topic and the lame story.

Signed up just to post this, there's this guy around the way in Modesto with a 805rwhp low boost Supra, should give you a pretty good run, his name is January, his brother also has a red sup that just went single, then there are a couple of single RX-7s here. Then I know of this guy with a Red GT stang down here that is a real **** but he has some work done, from the northside Windmere area notorious for doing burnouts out of sylvan area. Then there is the turboed black NSX around running around here.

Just giving you a heads up but they don't drive there cars much, so yeah have fun hunting them down and keep it safe.

^ Lol, ok I think I know everyone you are talking about The Black NSX isnt that fast, or at least he wasnt a few yrs ago. Maybe he upgraded his turbo, I dont know but I know he used to run 12's I believe. January I have heard is quick (obviosuly) As for the Mustang, thats not Perry is it?

I agree with 1QuikNotch though, in general there arent too many fast cars. Some are quick but by no means fast.

Actually i know of January and his brother Jackson. I have already had a chance to meet them. Actually January just put 1003hp to the wheels about 6 weeks ago. His brother Jackson just put 600hp to the wheels. They both have red supras and their dad has a silver one. Their other brother has a 240sx. Also January doesnt race his Supra. One of his friends tell me that it should run low 10's, maybe high 9's. QuikZ06 what happened that night when you and SS14PSI was out?

Well SS14PSI and a friend of mine ended up running for money, well his friend is the one that bet. Needless to say it almost got ugly when he found out the guy he ran was on the bottle (he didnt know that before they ran) So SS's buddy was pissed that he got "hustled" but like they say "run what you brung and hope its enough" But yeah it almost got ugly, since they were badly outnumbered, something like 12-15 to 2 and SS's buddy was still looking to fight.

Whats funny is the following week we were all hanging out racing and having a good time after all of teh apologies, but it was much funner when money wasnt involved.

^ yea i was wondering about that post too...he really didnt post a kill, only said that he couldnt find any fast street cars to race in his area...which people replied that there are some to look out for if he wants to race...and I dunno about you but most members on this forum dont own any **** lube, so your advice (from experience im assuming) is moot.

Are there no fast street cars in Cali? Surely a 10 second car isn't top dog out there. There must be some 8 second cars prowling around.

^ Well with the strict smog laws and cops popping your hood and impounding your car for any reason it makes it tough. But there are a few fast cars prowling around, but you dont see them on the street often.

It's that bad huh? It's common to see a local spot full of cars sporting wheelie bars and an occasional 'chute.
