Rep Power: 338

i got off work and my engine was pretty warm. i stopped at a light. after this light the road turns into one lane 400 feet after the light. then it sprouts out to 4. so me at this light. this cavalier pulls up beside me. i heard his exhaust, and i think his intake when we were idling. he had a front lip that matched his body, and i couldn't tell if it was a body kit so i will stick with the lip. so i look at his car and inside is blue lighted, matching his outside. a little darker than baby blue, and he looks at me and my ride. and i stare at the light. i wasn't sure if he wanted to go but i heard him pull out hard and i said screw it, have some fun, so i rolled out slow, then when i heard him redline i did too, i shifted to second when i hit 6200, and was a half car behind him, shifted to second and when to the red again, shifted to 3rd and caught up, redline to fourth and was gone. i didn't even get to 5th. i was at 70 in fourth when i got out of the one lane road into the 4 lane. its sweet. and its my first kill. hope to get more.

I am calling BS 70mph is still in 3rd and a ways from redline you don't hit the revlimiter in third until 83mph in a ex. And you say you were at 70 in 4th after you redlined 3rd???? Not saying that you could not beat a cavi, but I don't think that you really raced one, either that or your facts are f@#ked up

Truth, you just have to be a better driver. A good driver can make up for the car quite a bit. Unfortunately, I'm way beyond what my car can do as far as my driving ability.

Nice kill.

I really don't know what you are talking about "argue with this thread"?? Incase you did not read the damn thing I posted in that thread. It says just what I told you if you redline 3rd shift to 4th you will be going around 83 mph NOT 70 like you stated. So my BS still stands

 
Rep Power: 338

listen, i'm not arguing with you. so stop calling me a dumbass. if you disagree i don't care. i did it in my car in 3rd. if you don't like it i don't care. don't sit there and try to say i bullshitted. next time your in my car while i drive then you tell me. other than that, shut the hell up. and quit disrespecting.

I seriously have to agree with MajinB here, if you don't like what he told you, take it as it is...a story...no need to be calling names.

Then what are you trying to say?? The simple fact is if you are trying to say that you redlined 3rd shifted to 4th at 70mph you are wrong. That is all that I am saying and if you stick with that story then you are BSing. I did not care if you told me that you made a typo or looked at the speedo wrong or I even missread your post, but you DID NOT REDLINE 3rd at 70 not in a civic. You then proceed to post this thread as your argument that says nothing, but what I am trying to tell you redline in third is over 80mph NOT 70. I am not one to call names and you should not take it personally and I am not trying to be an A$$ I am just trying to get you to realize the truth.

i told you i'm not arguing. what i said is not an argument. i am telling that if you don't like what i posted, then thats your problem. thanks for ruining the thread. i am telling you i redlined at 70 in third. maybe i wasn't bouncing off the limiter, but i REDLINED at 70 and shifted. now i would appriciatte it if you would not crap on my story anymore. thanx. later.

my guess is that you shifted to 3rd at say 80mph, and then let off in 4th. you may have slowed down a bit and then looked down at your speed.

3rd gear will redline at 80 or so mph. your car will be no different than any other ex. food for thought.

You need to stop taking this so personally, and you are too arguing with me by saying that you redlined at 70 in 3rd. Because you DID NOT you would have been ~ 6k and no that is not even close to any redlines on a civic. And your thread is not ruined so you can wipe away those tears. Infact I will stop posting in it. For future referance civics redline ~83mph in third gear. Consider this an education I have had my fair share dished out to me and S2kman and others are not near as nice as I am LOL

This is all that you had to say and I would have said "OK good Kill"

 
Rep Power: 338

there is no use with you.

 
Rep Power: 401

yeah. i can be quite a b*tch

 
Rep Power: 401

hey. he's trying to be nice. listen to what he's saying. he's right. you don't redline at 70mph in 3rd. no ex does unless you have aftermarket gears or smaller rims and tires.

 
Rep Power: 338

ok. fine. i will listen. but its not about what he said. its about the way he said it. and how disrespectful it is. i just expect more from people. flame me all you want, i don't care i just don't like the disrespect. it is not nessecary.

 
Rep Power: 401

agreed

The problem is that there are way to many ways to read and interpret things on the internet. I call you a dumba$$ not out of hate, but love LOL Ok maybe not love, but I am really not sitting in my chair cursing you in discust and anger as I type replines.

 
Rep Power: 338

its not the point. the point is there was and still is no need. i have yet see the point. so it don't matter. like i said, quit disrespecting.
