And I'm right. What's your point? So would that make you stupid?
>Damn Terrin are you stupid or something? You're the one who first mentioned
>about spending $1000 to make an "SE-R" go in the 14s.
You stated that with your friend in the car, you run 0-60 5.8-6.3 seconds
slower. So that is running 0-60 in about 14 seconds. That is awfully slow.
Your friend is lying if he's telling you that he weighs 150.
>"Granted you are heavier, but you still should be in the 15's. GTECH's
>suck. Yeah, I'm sure 150 lbs is going to slow you down by 5.8 to 6.3
>seconds from 0-60. Hmm...so you're saying a geo metro with 3 cylinders
>would be faster from 0-60 just because you have a passenger in the car?"
You still have to shift.
>emissions crap and I still get 2.3s like yours. Talking bout skills? >Go
>figure...
No, how idiotic can YOU get. Yeah, the redline was lowered, but the 95+
engines have more low and midrange grunt than the older ones. That's why
they still are equivalently as fast. Also, if you've ever seen any dyno
charts of SE-R's, 95+ are not putting any less peak hp to the ground than
stock 91-94's.

I wasn't relating the two. I wanted to know if your car wasn't making the
power it should. If you are good, you don't need an auto to be consistent.
I used to be able to roll off consistent .5XX reaction times even with my
manual. But then again, that's when I used to go almost every week. No,
consistency determines who wins in bracket racing, not drag racing. Get a
clue man. I have far more drag race experience than you so don't even try
to claim that shit. That must feel pretty shitty to lose to a grandma.
I've actually been runner up on more than a few occasion at Sacramento
Raceway with my 200SX, what's your point?

Now the truth comes out. Your trap speed is way too low. Your racetrack is
really high elevation or you shift really really low, or your car is fucked
up.
>My trap speed is 84mph. But hey it's 100% stock with full interior and
>spare-tires.
I never said you suck. I just said it's all in driver skill. I don't know
it all. In fact, I barely know anything compared to some of the guys on
this list and the SE-R list. But I am open to learn, which you should try
doing.
