HOW FUCKING GAY IS THIS SHOW? Out of everything on a fucking AWD Talon they toss 125 shot of Nitrus.
|
I just started watching it. What is 9.92 equivilant to on a 1/4 track? They are only racing 1/8 mile right?
|
The talon wins with a 8.81 1/8 mile time vs a civic running 9.96 while the talon snapped an axle. What is 8.81 in 1/4 time?
|
An 8.81 would be a mid 13 second run in the 1/4. Not bad for doing it with a broken axle. I thought about that as soon as I saw him roll up with slicks on :P
|
What a lame build up for a Talon. Their attitude was like "Dude it's a turbo car, let's throw alot of Nitrous at it, and then only use it for the last 50 ft of the track". :slap: An AWD Talon with all the bolt on parts they showed with 100-125 shot and slicks should have been alot faster. :razz2:
|
That guy was bashing the Mitsubishi Motor! Looks like the DSM didnt do to bad against that Civic.
|
What did they spend on the Honda? 10k? What did they spend on the Talon? 1-3k? And the owner of the Talon was a moron. First he said at the beginning that he picked a Talon due to no one know what they can do. Yeah, sure. People are still retarded. Second he called his own Car FWD when he met up with that chick on the street. And then the whole 1/8 mile crap. I hope this doesn't become a series or I will have to cancel my cable.
|
A 8.8 is really bad for 125 shot and that crap on race gas. I saw it trapped like 87 mph. 87 mph in a 1/4 is like mid 12 sec pass with a good driver. Still slow for the setup. 125 Zex? Isn't zex dry only? Both cars were really slow for the amount of money invested. Having Honda guys build a dsm... um yea. They also weren't smart enough to know the rear end was gonna snap an axle, especially with slicks on a 3 bolt.

too bad apexi wasnt tuning the dsm, that would be cool. they were sooooo pissed at her, what a dumb women. |
Why the fuck did they put slicks on an AWD??!!? Sounds like it was fucking stupid, maybe I don't want to watch it.
|
It was pretty lame. A bunch of honduh guys trying the wrong way to make a DSM fast, ignoring the weekest parts and in general doing a lot of screwing around. Basically, they won in spite of themselves. It was entertaining to watch, but not worth anything as far as technical merit. And really, who didn't know the Talon would win.
|
does anyone know what turbo he was using? it was said that he was making 300 some horses...
|
I captured it to my computer, so if anybody wants it...
But yeah... WTF?! So they swap the honda, turbo it, drop a TON of money in to it; and then for the talon, bigger turbo? a bit of nitrous? I watched 3/4 of it and turned it off; the chick was annoying and had way more resources and the apexi guy's were sketchy like those other people; for the $$$ they spent on the civic she should have one, if they had on the talon he'd be way faster... |
i think they did it to attract attention for god knows what reason, i think the chick was a fake racer, the guy was picked out of an american eagle add, they were trying to get some drama, but overall it was terrible, not to mention the twenty pounds of decals, and then they had those recaros in the civic which magically disapeared before they get to the track, thought that was alittle odd. It there was anything real in that entire thing, it was the fact that the talon had problems (coil and then the axel). blah blah :rant:
:rant: :rant: :rant: |
i think they used the stock turbo. Really they just bolted crap onto the dsm and put it on the track.
the civic was a completely new car when apexi got done with it. i want to see a RRE do a car and put it out in 36 hours. |
