lol yeah i was totally joking. anyone who thinks a lumina is a sweet car needs help..lots of it. i'm embarrassed of my car. it's ugly and people and things keep hitting me so there's a ridiculous amount of cracks in my front bumper.

yesterday a kid on a bike ran into it while i was sitting in it cuz i had just pulled into my driveway. had i had my eclipse (what i'm saving up for) that kids parents would've gotten an asschewing. but oh well...i'm poor and this is all i get.

edit: oh yeah, did i mention my mom also ran into me with her car? that's the kinda luck i have in this car...

Re: SRT-4, 2 much powa!! flys off dyno.

In reality the cars usually not gonna go that fast off of the dyno. Dyno runs are not conducted in 1st gear. Mine was done in 3rd, and I would think that the car would more or less just hop first, peel out, and maybe go a few feet. Then again I guess an automatic car would be different.

Odd, it should of been done in 4th gear.

4th gear is usually the closest to 1:1 gear ratio... makes for more accurate reading.

Re: SRT-4, 2 much powa!! flys off dyno.

HP is the same reguardless...you just have to correct the torque because it will be multiplied through gearing.

Cars comming off dyno's at 120mph would be that bad, especially in a manal. the car has 0 inertia and unless it is AWD the tires arent going to have the traction to dump all of that inertia fro mthe engine, transmission, drive shaft, and wheels to the ground at once.

it isnt going to be pretty, but it isnt going to be ungoddly violent.

the worse thing that could happen would be rolling forward just far enough for the back tires (assuming a FWD car) to hit the roller....which has many many foot pounds of inertia.

Oh they can. I have a friend who has been dating a girl for a month exactly for that reason. Don't get me wrong, she's hot too, but annoying. But he puts up with it because she flies him all over the country, has a mansion, and picks up his bar tabs.
