you run what you have. you dont spout off a bunch of crap you plan to do.
and I'm sorry, if you beat those cars, then you ran some of the S H I T T I E S T drivers E V A R.
if you won, so be it. that does NOT mean your car was faster.

Rep Power: 0 He may have won. I posted before how a dude in a GTO ran a 15.2 down here at 500ft sea level. So it is possible I guess to run that shitty at 3000ft. In either case they are both shitty drivers. 5.0 and whoever else go up there and lets see if this guy is for real or just telling stories.

you also make it sound like your car is faster than those cars, which it's not. even i've beaten cars that are faster, but i'm the first to tell you i know the faster car didn't win.

Rep Power: 0 I've seen tons of fast cars run shitty at the track and I believe you , but you just have too many far fetched stories all the time and it makes people suspicious. Like the 05 GT. you run a 14.7 at best 05 GT runs low to mid 13's. It's hard to believe you would hang with one from a roll.

Rep Power: 267 how can civic_redline hit lows 15s with a turbo, yet redline04 can do low 15s with just boltons? if it has a turbo, should it not run like atleast 14s, even at that elevation?
I smell black99vtec all over here.

Rep Power: 0 Weight redux, cooler temps(50's), drag radials(2.08 60ft) and only 500ft elevation.
If he was trpping 96mph he should have ran at least a mid 14. Probally had a crappy 60ft or was spinning at some point?

the official correction factor for lacr is .4 seconds.
96 mph is pretty good for up there. sounds like your 60' was prolly really high.
last time I ran there I ran 14.8 @ 90 mph lol my car really dont like that track.

Rep Power: 0 if he's up to I'll gladly come up and run him on video. I did the same thin on clubrsx so i wouldnt have a prob runnin the turbo vic either then you'll know if he's lyin or not.
also it's common to see mustang gt's running 15.0 - 14.2 at that track.

Rep Power: 299 trapping at 96mph you should be good for a 14.2-14.7 unless your getting 3 second 60 ft times. When I trap at 96 its always in the mid to low 14's
At that psi and elevation I doubt you where trapping 96. Post the timeslips so we can take a look.

agreed. i race a integra w/ a b18 and won, but i know that car is faster i just had a better launch than he did.

Rep Power: 0 yeah I heard 96mph is good for mid 14's and low 14's with an EXCELLENT 60' b/c I trap around 101-102mph and I've only ran a 14.2 but my 60' wasnt all the great and that was on street tires...maybe the elevation really played a part in his 15 sec time slip...that STI dude still sucks though...sorry he does.
