You're right.

I'll take my blinders off and realize that even Civics with fart cans and cammed 98 GTs sound good in their own special way. So my opinion will now change.

Do you think before you type?

By the way, good kill.

Dig racing is great. Goes to show who the real racers are.
You do know they make cams for mustangs too... now that sh*t sounds breath taking

I've seen a 2004 Z06 run a 15 second quarter mile. That must mean
that all Z06's are dyno queens.

Put a car that can make a ton of power in the wrong hands and you're
going to get a dyno queen. Put that same car into an experience racers
hands and you're going to get a monster. The same thing applies to the
LS1 platform.

Here's an example of a '03 Cobra in experienced hands...8 second
passes on the stock engine.

Get out, see the world, visit a track. Check out some BBF's with twin 88's that

naturally aspriated, etc, etc, etc.

You'll find that a cammed LS1 sounds puny in comparison to many other cars.
I find it ironic that you think of civic's with fart cans while I think of
pro mods. Elevate your though process junior...think high level. You're not
going to go anywhere in life unless you think big.

Quarter mile times and dyno numbers have what to do with anyone's opinion about how a car sounds?
(This is why I asked if you thought before typing ****)
The irrelevant **** you type most often than not has nothing to do with the subject at hand.

For instance:
You find it necessary to tell me again and again, about how much of an elite, underground, t-shirt wearing, poster-in-your-room-having, super fanatic and knowledgeable of pro-stock and that other bullshit that you are.
But this will probably disappoint you:
No one cares.
No one cares that you, much like them WWF geeks watch or go to super-fan only drag racing events, which in turn make you more ****-hot or knowledgeable than me or anyone here who doesn't give a **** about that.

We're talking about which cars we think sound better than others and you start spewing this **** about irony, me going no where in life and even calling me a junior ( What the **** have you done to call me Junior? Are you an E-7 to 0-10 or some ****? (military reference) ?).

Again, think before you type.

By the way, the civic and mustang comment wasn't serious.

I'm an AS2/E-5. But I do security for the base now.

Undesignated sucks man. Where are you stationed at now?

Nevermind, I saw you're a Marine, well i igure it's the same as the Navy. Undesignated guys get all shitty jobs.

Im stationed in NAS Pensacola right now and its really hot and this town sucks really bad, but any military town seems to blow. I need to bring my car down here so i can atleast have a lil fun, Im not undesignated though. I am an Air Traffic Controller, good job but pretty boring and monotonous most of the time. What base do you work at? As in security do you mean MP or what?
