Will that be with the AC on or off?

Im gonna be sippin lemonade and blasting the A/C pal! Just to add insult to injury

Remember.. I've got 1 of each right now. If this AWD suscks as much as I think it might, I can always come back....

... and embarASS the BR FMIC/20G/3"/VPC/SAFC/660cc/AWD Barney mobile once again..

Oh Mike, one day you to will see the error of your way's repent, and eventually be able to push the gas pedal to the floor in a corner without leaving little black marks all over the place...
Steve, welcome to the club...and for you guys that wonder what happens when you hit the gas in a corner... http://www.ca.dsm.org/cgi/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=5;t=000174
Hey get the tractor !

LOL... thanks, Tim! (I think...)

I was out on the highway again the other night.. Man, am I gonna miss the pull/torque steer in 4th...

Oh well, I guess walking the Barney mobile right off the line has it's price.

"Oh Mike, one day you to will see the error of your way's repent, and eventually be able to push the gas pedal to the floor in a corner without leaving little black marks all over the place..."

You are so very right Tim... that's why I'm ordering a Quaife

Please read my sig you AWDers.

The 'next year' ricer part, or the part where you're jealous of our 60' times?

Nothintg beat the look a fwd driver when a awd guy takes off on him. Then its all about catching up.

Mike you should change the sig to 12's or $BROKE$
I still wonder about the "only running FMIC in K/W"...Well I guess it still runs it just can't MOVE...

Spring is sprung, the grass is griss... I wonder where the competition is?

The clutch is half broke in now... things are feeling pretty good. Finally I'll at least have 2 wheels hooking up when I embarass you guys at the track. Oh and the street... where are those 111.9X trap speeds boys?

Give me a few days of tuning and I'll get a few more mph out of her yet .

Well actually if you look at my best E/T vs best trap slips here you'll see that the best trap one had a lower 1/8th speed. That means I made the difference up after that not spinning at launch .

Yah, but aren't those STILL on race gas??

Street trim, baby. That's where the REAL men hang out. Last time I was at the strip I didn't even lower my tire pressure.

Couldn't have said it better myself... and for the record I never have lower or raise my tire presssure..

Hey Mike, I'll run against ya for best trap speeds if you'd like... I'd do it on pump gas too.

I want in on this one

Bring it! I'll be ready, WITHOUT a 16g

Your car on the road yet?

Just bring it boys

Steve you traitor... how's the grass over there?

Vince... another year gone by another second off your 1/4 mile? You'll be back to the stock 15s I think now. I thought only those with currently fast cars could talk sh!t. Almost as sad as PPGs whining about his one good day in Ohio at a real track.

Darko Darko Darko... when (if) you get your car together we'll talk .

Rob man, fellow FWDer... let's show them what they are missing in 2003.

I wish :rolleyes:

This weekend we should have it all assembled minus the turbo (It's getting rebuilt).

How bout we go at it right now?
My lawnmower vs. your compressionless choir-cart...

IF? "If" left town back in december when my shortblock was done Everything is finished mate, nothing holding me back now...

Rob, you want me to give your lawnmower a few buslengths for a head start?

LOL.. I'll let you know as soon as I get it off the jackstands!!

I KNOW what I'll be missing. I don't think I'll miss the first half much. Wow, am I gonna want a bigger turbo once I get it on the highway, though. I'm gonna SUCK on the highway...

Nope you are wrong, the rule states "One may talk sh!t even though not currently fast as long as one at one time was fast" That's taken directly from the bench racing rule book section 5.2.4.14.

You still can't talk much since my 2 year old personal best still hasn't been broken by yourself even after many, many mods....

bla, bla, bla you and your MPH garbage, the fact of the matter is that your 111mph doesn't even get your rubber burning machine in the 12's. You are starting to sound like a Supra owner. Maybe if you beg enough you can get Cayuga to move the timing lights up 20' so you can get a moving start lol.

Don't worry soon enough I'll be back in action and then I will run 111mph with my 16g'd AWD

"bla, bla, bla you and your MPH garbage, the fact of the matter is that your 111mph doesn't even get your rubber burning machine in the 12's. "

It means the machine is capable... the driver needs work .

Oh and last I checked Vince 13.221 was quicker then 13.295 and 110.79mph faster then 105.84mph.

Hell yeah!

I'm locked and loaded. The PP finally got removed from the garage on Sunday. Steve and I took her out for a ride. Car felt great. Hauled ass (if I do say so myself).

My clutch/flywheel issues should be sorted out now (better be) so bring it on you WWD pansies.

pumpgas or racegas, it don't matter to me.

With Andy's car in hibernation, and I guess it will be my DSM duty to represent for the 2G camp, and well I just may have to see if I can pull a 111mph trap, and gee what do I get if I pair it up with a 1.7 60ft, Oh wait I think it's a WWD wwwaayyyyyy behind. Vince is pretty funny one day, along time ago I was fast...

Tim did you upgrade turbos yet? You're gonna need more than the little hairdryer to get some decent traps

Well I havn't picked out what to use to replace the little hairdryer, but let's just say that the US tourists were very good with the Buschur Bucks and FP dollars this year. And I'don't think I went with DSMLink to maximise the benifits from a T2small.
The way things are looking I may end up with some EVO parts under the hood.

Ya it means the driver needs work on his head for ever thinking that a WWD car could ever be fast in the 1/4....

See again you forgot to read your bench racing manual, bench racers don't count anything after one decimal place and since I am the one that initiated the bench racing I am faster. Understand how this works now?

booo booo
you guys are all slow!

Why don't all of you, on a day everyone is available, set-up a 'grudge match' night at cauyga/st thomas?

"Past : 1995 Eagle Talon TSi AWD"
"Present: 1995 civic hb cx ->B16'd"

LOL.. Ya, you've earned the right to call us slow.. :rolleyes:

Bahahahahaaa.... "B16'd".. ooohhhhhh. Look out!

I think my wife's 1.6 EL would take that thing. I cringe when I step on the gas in it.

I think instead od doing a DSM VS DSM event we should do a DSM vs TORREY and see how many of us can cross the finish line and come to a stop before he crosses the line.
We should set up a track day before the shootout, anyway's how many of you guy's are actually going to race once you get down there?

hehe torrey,

Don't think that just because your Civic can go faster than your slushbox TSI AWD doesn't mean you can be faster than ANY other Turbo DSM.

"Why don't all of you, on a day everyone is available, set-up a 'grudge match' night at cauyga/st thomas?"

Where in my post did I say my car was fast?
Where did I even include MY car for the races? I dont see any indication of that anywhere???????

Forget it. I'm not even going to bother. Everyone can keep talking crap, I just suggested that we setup a FUN day of racing.

frack it.

aaaahahahahahhahaahhahahahahaha

uhh...:

If you aren't comparing US to YOU, then we "are all slow" compared to what?

The assumption is that you meant we are slow compared to you.

If you talk smack, don't get mad when you get smacked back.

And especially don't get mad about smack that is spoken in the test area. This thread is here for a reason!

"If you aren't comparing US to YOU, then we "are all slow" compared to what?"

I wasn't talking any 'smack'. I was just joking around.

nm, get back to this thread... I drive a honDUH, bash away.

Same thing..
We are ALL joking in here.. It just sounded like you got upset over it.. That must have been a joke too!

eh

Can't we all just get along?

Oh please :rolleyes: If you feel the need to post in a thread like this you better be prepared to receive some type of ribbing. There was nothing Steve or anyone else said in reply to your post that was not expected. You got off lightly compared to what Steve, Mark, Mike J etc. have taken. If you're going to be a baby don't post in a thread like this, it's not for thin skinned people like yourself.

NO

Actually it was set up last season, Mark Stole my idea of a FWD vs AWD. And then he Set it up for a Friday, I think he did this because he knew I work mon-fri and he didn't want me to embarrass him or anyone else.

Any way it ended up raining on the friday it was scheduled for.
