Went to the site prostreet online because someone told me GOTBOOST goes there. I found this hilarious post on what kind of times people are running on that site. There were some turbo honda's running 15's while the owners were hoping to get into the 14's. Another guy posted he ran a 16.1 but with nitrous he is expecting 14's

You can go to the track and stand around there cars and here that..they talk about 14's like v8 guys talk about 11-12's

 

I know. Its hilarious. 14's are wicked slow for a modded car.

 

some of our favorite import owners on here act as if they are trying to break the sound barrier. hint= G_ TB_ _ ST? can i buy a vowel?

 

My brother and I were at the track once and we were in the staging lanes next to a Prelude and a Civic. My brother (94 Supra) happened to line up with the Civic. The Honda guys peeked in his car and were thrilled that "Hey, it's only an automatic." They then swapped places so it'd be the Supra vs. the Prelude "because the Prelude had run 15s earlier and he'll probably get 14s on this run."

All they cared about was that the Supra was an auto and therefore an easy target. They ignored the other obvious signs like a FMIC and the 295-width Bridgestone Pole Position tires out back. It was also packing a single turbo, a Precision Industries converter, and a built tranny. Yep, it's "just an auto."

Of course they felt really stupid when they finally did run. The car did 11s at 122+ mph at 18-19 psi on pump. We never did wring it out at the 27 psi / race gas I designed it for.

And FWIW, my family sedan broke into the 13s with a $20 boost controller

 

 

I remember when I went to the track and I ran against an acura rsx-s that had headers and intake. I ran 13.9 to his 15.1. When we got back, he came up to me and needless to say that he was shocked. He said, " But it's only an automatic, I thought for sure that I could beat it." Then he told me that he had a friend that had a M6 LT1 camaro that ran 15's. So I just told him that either his friend can't drive or something is messed up with that car.

 

us a4's dont have the punch the m6's have but with the right gears and tc, we can hold our own. i lack both

 

Had a guy tell me in Western Civ today that he had an Ecipse that was running 35lbs. of boost and got into the 9's on pump gas and street tires. I thought he was talking about 1/8. Turns out he said he went to the local 1/4 mile and would have done better if not for the weather. I asked if he wanted to line up but "I made a custom wastegate and I think its broken"

 

sounds like the 444hp saleen that was supposed to race my galant this year... guy had the base model saleen (290 hp for the year), but stated he had 444hp (extreem model #'s for the year)... i gave his girl a copy of 3 time slips (11's @ 120+), and this was a week after he went to the track and ran the 14's and 15's i told his girl the car was going to run... he said he won't race me now, so i told her he can bring the winter beater over... she looked @ me like w.t.f.? is this guy talking about... i told her that her man said he wanted to race for pinkslips and he needed a good winter beater and would use my galant as one, so seeing how he's not going to race his turd saleen, i'd make his saleen MY winter car as it's the slower of the 2 cars... she didn't like that idea... i wish i had the ***** to wave the flag when i know people are talking it, guess i'll have to settle with seeing him @ business get-to-gethers, and ask him when he's ready to race... lol...

 

Pitiful.

 

you cant laugh too much. the 305 tbi 3rd gens run 17s stock if they are running good. most of those guys spray their way out of the 15s...

hell i think ive heard that same line from some v6 owners on this very site...

its all about what you like. and what i find funny is the amount of people talking sh*t on here about cars on a DIFFERENT site. takes a HELL of a man to do that...

 

stop it, you're killing me!!!

 

yea, we should all follow gotboosties lead and go troll on the other site.

naw, man.

this is a rear wheel drive, domestic car website.. forgive us all if we dig into the fwd econo-boxes every now and then. granted i have been seeing more **** talking about them lately... but then of course, gotboostie has been annoying the hell outta people lately.

 

So they are talking **** about imports on a F-body site and you are talking **** about F-bodies on a F-body site. That makes you more of a man?
