Anyone can be undefeted on the street... Its like playing pool.. Its not about how fast your car is, or how good a driver you think you are, its about setting up a race, and knowing your opponents weakness. GSRhunter.... Your car is FAST. plain and simple. Purpose built for roll racing. Quit bragging about racing huge horsepower cars, and winning... Race that car from 0-140. Run their race. Would you win. No. Because that car is alot QUICKER than yours. Now, racing is racing.

Most cars are built to pull off the line, and run stoplight to stoplight because that is realistic use of the car. Hell 400WHP would probably kill your car from a dig. Then I would be here bragging about the nearly undefeted racer I killed. But you wouldnt race from a dig. You know your *** would be handed to you. **** stick.

High rpm torque is better. Although I agree, it is an impressive graph.

We have some local folks that like to take out their Twin Turbo Vettes and Camaros and Vipers and have some fun. If you're not doing 200MPH or over you can't even compete. They all get there pretty damn fast. The big motors don't really need much time to at all to spool the turbos. The displacement takes care of that.

Still has 600rwtq @ 7k rpms. I'd say it has plenty of torque all through out the powerband.

GSRboy needs to give it up. This isnt "The gay and the curious" where you bust out your "pink slip", and "get respect". We dont live our lives a 1/4 mile at a time, or in your case, from bridge to bridge. Maybe you need to tune your nos timer so that you can run nines....

does it really matter who won...gsr, youve been watching too much fast and furious...unless there is money in it, run for fun and shut the hell up...noone cares if you are "undefeated" in your mind...running focus's, escorts, cavaliars, sunfires, tiburons and other cars like that doesnt prove too much...sure if you have a quick car you can graduate to the bigger cars with small v6's in them or maybe even v8's with bad drivers....but get the damn sand out of your vagina...you win some you lose some...NO ON CARES!!!

I thought Gsrhunter's car traps around 135 on pump gas and well over 140 on race gas.

I don't know about you guys, that's pretty quick for a street car. Since most street races are roll races.

Street races around here aren't roll races. Stoplight racing and flat out drop the arm street racing.

Traps 140 and runs only 11's? Must be a REAL pig out of the hole then.

Per his link to dragtimes.com, his E.T. and trap are -
1/4 Mile ET: 11.485
1/4 Mile MPH: 129.570

This is with 570 horses to the wheels running VP C16 110 Mix 114

The benefit of cubes? See sig

I thought he said that was on 91 pump gas that trapped 129.570.

Damn, I just saw his 1/8 mile time.... which is a tenth slower than my times. Funny part is that he has 270rwhp on me.

Of course on the big end he drives around me for the win light... but not by much. I sure with a little effort he can get the car to hook from a dig. -Mark

BTW. I DO LIKE YOUR CAR.
I have never been arrogant. You guys are like sharks when chum is thrown in the water. My other thread was going just fine with a debate on dig Vs. roll racing..... when I had to defend myself against a few idiots mostly with slow cars. Once I did this.... now all of a sudden its deemed that I'm talking crap about how fast my car is and all you sharks started circling. I never once said my car was fast..... just that most of the guys who were talking crap to me had no business doing so with thier 13 and 14 second cars.

I'll bet Las Vegas has several cars that are pushing or even over 1000 hp to the wheels.

There's a guy named Jeff that lives in Vegas, goes by the screen name American HP. He has a bright orange C5, so it can't be hard to miss. I'll attach a pic of one of his dyno pulls and a pic of his car. Oh, WTF is this supposed to mean? Your car is undefeated but you've lost twice? Does that mean that you lost 2 races but you weren't driving the Integra? If that's the case, why didn't you just say that? But if you lost while driving your Integra, then your CAR lost, and your claim of being undefeated is bullshit. Even if you really are undefeated, see the first paragraph of my post.

Jeff's dyno graph and bright orange car:

Yes there are probably 25 cars out here that will hand me my ***..... and those are just the ones that I know of. As I stated before the reason why the big dogs don't pick on me is because I don't talk like I think my car is almighty. If I was arrogant someone would come and put me in my place. There is always someone with a faster car. You guys somehow deem me as being arrogant just because I defend myself against the closedminded guys on here who feel the need to bash an import no matter what.

GSR- honeslty bro, why go onto a knuckle dragging domestic site and post your kill against the flagship car of the manufactors? Talk about sharks, YOU are throwing meat into the Lions den and you don't 'expect to get bit? I mean seriously. Put yourself in their/our shoes. How do you think if I went onto clubsi or supraforums and said I just put cornfields on this poopra or B12345643 from a dig. You expect everyone to just say good kill? Its the internet aka bench racing hangout. Get over it. Just let the thread go to page 2, 3, 4, 80, etc and move on. -Mark
