I never said it was the king of the highway, but it will surprise a lot of guys that never gave the SS much consideration. As for the .7 sec to go 1 mph, I have no clue. Sounds like a gear change, but third will carry up to 105, so I dunno what the deal is with that.

No..it's a whole second. To go .7 mph. And in your other thread..I just don't see a car trapping 97mph pulling an evo (traps 101+) by 4 cars. Sorry.

I think I deserve a speed memory award for this at the award show.

edit: in response to the second half of your statement..i once ran 14.5@85mph in my srt-4. 2.5 60'. Coasting after the 1/8th.

another edit: after looking around a bit I found one going [email protected]. So I retract my statement.

Look at the bottom..it lists 0-100mph in 15.4 seconds...it takes it a whole second to go .7mph?

damn man you need to work on your 60'........I average 2.2-2.0 on the stock kdws...took me a while but it got there...try not launching so high......as for bulldog his car in general might not be as fast as the cars he has been racing....but you have to remmember that all cars arent created equal....and as the underdog he should get cred for beating such respectable cars such as the evo, and wrx.....but if he says he beats an srt then you know its total bs...lol.....no for reals....j/k...not..lol

I average 2.0s/2.1s also. That 2.5 60' was trying too hard for 12s on stock tires+bad track prep+stock tire pressure.

Taking bets as to when dampachi will be banned again.

Dampachi why did you get a SRT4? I mean you had a pretty nice stang and the SC kit would have been sweet. Also you dont see to many people with RWD cars switch to FWD cars.

I don't understand all these "kills" either. I mean one or two, ok fine, but every car that should be right there with him or beat him by a few always loses. Why not just take a few clips of you racing people and make all the non-believers look stupid? It shouldn't be that hard since you seem to be a serial killing machine on those streets and have a kill every day. Those people in your area must really suck at driving. A V6 accord can trap higher than you and yet you still beat it by a few cars. There is no "my car sucks at launching" excuse because the Accord does too and actually gains most of the speed in 3 and 4th (if it's a 6 speed) People have run a 13.9 and trapped over 100 mph with a V6 accord with just a CAI and slicks.

How about setting up a donation for him to get a cheap camera to show us how he destroys all these cars. Putting 4 cars on an Evo in about 50 (70-120 if I reemember correctly) mph is quite an accomplishment (for a Cobalt - not for a LS2) Please, make me look stupid. I don't need to see dynos or how much a CAI will give you, just a video and proof. Your ET and trap speed really contradict all your posts. Even if you ran a 14.0 @ 100 mph, you shouldn't be beating all these cars the way you claim.

I launch my car off idle, anything more just results in wheel hop. My motor mounts are like sponges, it sucks. This is the main reason for most people getting crappy et's, but pretty high mph.

I figured that out two days ago, but didn't say anything cause I just didn't give a damn unless he turns into a real ass again. So far he seems to be behaving himself fairly well.

I did. 944 to CRX... cheaper to fix, more reliable and about the same power after all said and done.

I do have a very nice dig camera that takes vids, but the problem is most of the time I'm racing I don't have a passenger. So how the hell am I going to get video of me racing a car while I'm driving?
However, I will go out this week and weekend with my g/f in the passenger seat armed with my camera so I can try and capture some action. If I do manage to get something on film I'll have to have someone download the vid and compile it for me, as I havent the software or the knowledge to do so.

I also still have some video of Brandon's 5.0 smoking me, would anyone like to compile this one and post it? I'm sure it'll give the Cobalt haters a lot of gratification

[clawhammer]

Yeah, I would like to see some vids of your races Bulldog.

I think there must be some sort of a massochistic thing about signing up just to be banned.

He wont tell you. In Baltimore, street racing is uber secretive buisness, he keeps all his slips and reciepts and what not locked up so even if he is tortured and killed, no one will know what is car set up is.

[clawhammer]

BullDog, I have the software and knowledge on how to do videos and stuff, but I have finals coming up in the next week. I can give you a place to upload it, and I'll edit it, and post it on the web, but only after my finals are done.
