think i can beat a 2002 corolla manual?

[liquid8]

my friend has a corolla and he has a custom ram air intake and a muffler. do you think i can get him with my stock as hell civic dx hatch? i think that i can give him some comp but i don't know. just because of the fact that my hatch weighs as much as my shoe. lol. he get's 16.4 in the 1/4

16.4? Dude, I run 15.9, maybe 15.7... Get your facts straight. And your dx doesn't weigh as much as your shoe. Your shoe weighs 2000+ lbs.? How do you walk with that?

So...which one was your best? 15.7 or 15.5? Just trying to weed out the lies.

15.5 is street time, on street pavement. 15.9 is my track time, if I do good, 15.7. Yet again, carrrnut makes an immature attempt to have one up on me, bottom line... If you have the guts, go to San Diego sometime, I'll meet you there, and we can handle this, but we'll have to plan it ahead by like two months, because I actually have a life... I know it's hard for you to believe that I have a life and you don't but it is true.

you drive a corolla... alrighty and what is a street time is that a, well at the track i run worse than when i am driving on crappier roads? you make no sense why isn't your track time your fastest and who clocked your 15.5?

[Neutrino]

I think I'll bet on the civic because corollas are rather weak compared to their curbweight.

i know it would be a slow race to watch thats for sure :finger:

my cars faster on crappier roads, if theres just a little bit of loose sand or something so i can spin my tires on takeoff instead of bogging down. so i can get my fastest times on the street, maybe thats what hes talking about? but i dont know how he came up with an actual time? it must be his estimation...

Thats what I was thinking. Even the Coroalla S is extreemly weak. Raced one last night. Bye bye sucker.

corollas suck mines completey shit

actually, my buddy has a completely stock AE86, it's pretty cool, slow, but cool. He is going to start fixing it up soon and it should be pretty fast knowing him. here's a link: http://www.abqimportscene.com/nmauto...rs.php?view=43

I raced the hatch... Smoked him by about 3 car lengths... Off the start to the finish. He beat a 97 EX, made me proud, I told him he better not lose. Look in case you guys didn't know, me and liquid8 are homies, I've known him for five years, he used to drive a 5.0, I'm the one that talked him into getting a hatch, but when you see a Corolla beat a 99 Civic Si, and then you see a Corolla lose to a GSR by a mere car length, it changes your perspective of Corolla's.

Oh yeah and I tested my road time with Gtech pro. You guys disappoint me when it comes to knowledge.
When you have STREET tires, you get better traction on... well... the street. When you have drag radials, you get better traction on... well... the drag strip. I have street tires, and I get better traction on... the street. So when I street race out in the country, I get better times then on the track. My time slips at the track read 15.9. My Gtech pro read 15.5, at best, even though the Gtech is off by a bit. So when I say I run 15.7 in arguement to his statement, it's because when I race, I prefer to do so on the track...
Does that clarify things?
