Domestics (American racing style cars) are mainly built for 1/4 mile straight line racing. Who can get to the finished line first, ***** to the wall racing. Adrenaline shooting out of every pore in your body. You shake like an eathquake when you begin, and shake even harder when you finish win or loose from the rush. HP and TQ actually means something in our racing. I'll stick with the adrenaline rush myself...

Have you ever raced 15-20 laps around a road course? Its very hard and taxing to stay concentrated and not make a mistake for 45min.-1hr. I agree there is a huge feeling of adrenaline when you race a 1/4mile but it is gone so quick. Now take that and stretch it out for minutes as you jockey for position against the guy beside you and try to set up for the perfect pass without making a mistake and plowing your car into the wall and tell me theres no adrenaline there.

I will admit that will throw you some adrenaline, but not as much as 1/4 mile racing where ANYTHING can happen. ie. Everything going fine when you launch on the ******* next to you, and all of a sudden when you shift to 2nd gear, you're facing the fukin wall. You loose your axles when you try to cut a perfect light or out tree the opponent. We can go through this kind of crap all day, but I was just stating the differences. They are built for different reasons. They both have their faults.

i dunno, my crown vic can do a "type" of auto X pretty good, and its even got pretty lights....just sucks when i have to jump out and chase someone on foot

imports and domestics can honestly NEVER be put on a level playing field.....if there both stop...the domestic wins, if they mod at the same amount of money...the domestic wins...ie i had a guy back in college try to tell me that if "he had 12 grand he kill and domestic"...well politely told him, if he got 12grand for his car...id need that too...and with 12grand, hed never seeee my car.....one of the guys i went to academy with had a boosted B16 civic, that made around 330 rwhp and weighed less then 2000 pounds...damn quick....but he admited he put alot of money into....my car makes maybe 330 with what i have in my mods...and ive spent a 10th of what he has.....its like the bastards on pinks...."i need 15 links with the bottle" WTF?!? why even come race....keep it fair and if u take it in the ***....o well be a man....

Dude... I have never bashed anyone's car ever, or domestics. I do however hate the LT1 series car's looks. BTW, what have I done wrong? Expess my opinion on a public forum? 90% of the time you are the one that destroys thew threads.

Back to topic. Nice kill.

Riiight...no. You obviously don't realize what you say, I'm not the only one who notices it. Unit just posted right above, he said the same thing.

Don't get on your soapbox. You're next on the ban list. I've seen nothing
but bullshit out of you. I'm cleaning house...just fyi. If you plan on being
a member here, my suggestion is that you post your opinions in a positive
way.

LS1NA7 - I'll reply to your PM.

Exactly, your expressing your opinion, which I actually agree with, I think LT1 camaros are one of the ugliest vehicles on the road today. The trans ams arent bad, but the z28's and even the SS's arent to my liking. However you cant express your opinion since its a domestic board, but morons like Domestic Demon and 98bandit are able to bash imports relentlessly for no real reason, and try to justify it saying your on a domestic board, which is just lame IMO.

Unit just ban him and 98bandit (if you already havent). Both of those assclowns add ZERO to any topic in any forum, they just troll in every import thread and start ****. I dont think ive seen a single sensicle or intelligent post from either of them yet. LS1INA7 is kind of opiniated but doesnt attack people like those two guys do. Just my opinion though as im sure your just as sick as the rest of us seeing every kill thread with an import turn into a domestic vs import war...

Thank you. I might not agree with everyone but at least I am civilized. I love this board. I find tons of info and parts here that I need! And even though I sold my Vette, I still need info because I think I am about to get a Z28... And I still have the LS1 RX-7.

Oh, and Domestic Demon and 98Bandit are the same person.

That's funny, you do pretty much the same thing, except with imports.
