What tires were you using? R1's

450 to the ground. How do I get there? And how much did it cost? When I went the Dyno shoot out a few months ago, the highest GTR was only 424, and that thing was loaded with parts.

Hemi,

That 71 for your avatar, is my dream car. And back in High School we would cruise in a '69 Barracuda, those were the day. Your car is awesome, I just wish it was more for the street.

My Stang, would beat sami's GTR in the 1/4, even with his awd, and more power. Do you beleive me sami?

hahahaha I get her out every once and awhile. thanks by the way. that stang sounds like a beast my wife has a 67 fastback, beautiful car.

My Stang, or GTR whatever. You got a HEMI

How can you even compare the King of all cars, the Skyline, to a WEAK, American car. Of course the Skyline is better and could beat a Mustang. But to put the two up next to each other would be an extremely unfair matchup because the Skyline is so much better. Please Believe

yea i'm starting to realize lots of ppl in these forums think that american cars are junk or something? I'm being challenged by a CRX in the other thread, I mean c'mon even souped up I don't think its even gonna be a fair race he wants to do it friday.

SkylineUSA · 10-25-2002, 06:36 AM

Your kidding, right. A Hemi, against a CRX.

I would put big bucks down on the CRX getting you out of the hole, and then pulling on you all the way to the finishline

Today's youth, clueless.

If they would pick up a few books and do some reading, they might just learn something. That would take effort, so I do not think most of them would try. There are a few out there, that have some knowledge, but most are just armchair quaterbacks.

Did I mention that some of these kids know what they are doing, hybridsol is pertty knowledgeable.

Good Luck to both of you

ok let me start of by saying I have newfound respect for all you honda driver's, I met up with hybridsol early this afternoon. First of all let me say that I was only expecting 1 guy and 1 car. I was sitting in my living room watching the game, and from the outside I hear a barage of blowoff vlave's. My son who was home with me jumps up and looks outside, I told him about the whole thing b/c I thought he might want to watch. ok I went out the front door to see and a black honda integra was pulling up with a black delsol close behind. The integra passed the house but the delsol stopped right outside, the integra then backed up turned around and parked. the guy in the integra then got out and started yelling across the street del slow! And as soon as they pulled up 2 more honda cars pulled up and a green jeep towing a CRX, the guy in the delsol after fiddeling with something inside his car got out. This kid was at least 6'3 and he had to be over 200 pounds (yea he was a big guy) he said to me I'm sorry Mr. George? I said yes just george and laughed, he introduced himself as C.J. he looked embarrased and apolagized for having a race in my neghborhood (yea got complaints about that) and then introduced his friends. 3 other guys and a girl. So I took them out to a country road I knew of that wasen't often populated by cars quarry road. It turns into a dead end. When he started the car it was groggy and I heard a hard wind I had to wait while he messed with a computer laptop in his car for a while but i needed to warm her up anyhow then he gave me thumbs up. Ok cutting to the chase we sat at the line and my son opted to flag (I think my son was routing for the other team all he talks about now is how he wants to go to this school where there from and all) Off the line I spun a bit the CRX on the other hand took off from the line without even squeeling he had already gained two car lengths but I started to catch him through 2nd I pulled on the rear side panel of the car still gaining ground on im, then to my amazement he pulled on me another car length and took the title! we raced again b/c I asked him If he wouldent mind me giving it another shot he seemed pretty amazed that he had beat me as well and agreed. This time I didint spin and took him head to head off the line he pulled on me again! by the end of that race he had only beaten me by a nose but a wins a win. I was very impressed after the race he shook my hand told me how suprised he was and thanked me for the race. he was nothing like all the kids around here i see? he was well dressed and very polite all I have to say is that was a new one for me never been beaten by a honda and never thought it was possible!

So, what is your best 1/4 in your Cuda?

Cool story. I told you some of those kids, do know what they are doing, but most do not.

HemiGeorge · 10-27-2002, 01:42 PM

low 10's e.t. last 1/4 was 10.18 but she didint grab cause I got anxious, If I get in the right feel I can get perfect traction, and yea some of them kids do know there stuff. what are you running in the stang?

Civicgurl · 10-28-2002, 05:24 AM

Drifter890 · 12-02-2002, 04:52 PM

what is this world coming to when a POS honda can beat a Barricuda

SkylineUSA · 12-04-2002, 06:42 AM

The guy with the honda, knows his stuff. To say all Hondas are POS is not really that accurate.

There are only a few guys on here I respect for time and energy spent working on cars, he is one of them.

Drifter890 · 12-04-2002, 09:03 PM

MAYBE I OVER REACTED I'M NOT USE TO HEARING ABOUT A CRX BEATING A CUDA WITH A 426 ! I'M TRUELY IMPRESSED, HOW MUCH POWER DID THE CRX HAVE? THE REASON FOR MY SURPRISE IS THAT THE ONLY TUNED HONDAS I GET TO SEE ARE ON TV OR MAGAZINES ALMOST ALL THE HONDAS FROM WERE I LIVE ARE ALL SHOW AND NO GO. IF THE STORY ABOUT THE CUDA AND CRX IS TRUE THAN THE GUY WHO OWNS THE CRX DOE'S KNOW WHAT HE IS DOING.:smoka:
