Your saying your car is capable of it. Your car is capable of the fastest time it has ran IMO.

And I was assuming you had to be a decent driver being you have the fastest 20g time.

I drove my car most of the year last year. I also brought it out to the SO, broke it, fixed it and had it running in less than 24 hours. Is anybody really surprised a keyboard cowboy that runs 17's is talking trash? Kids.

How am I talking trash. It started out with me simply stating a damn near fact and has turned into this. I am well aware that shit breaks and doesnt go right. Everything I have said in this thread I would say in person as well, so my opinion on DSM's is different then yours, big deal.

Oh and on the all 11 and 10 second cars break, that is bullshit. There are MANY cars that do not break nearly as often and still run times similar.

Once again, I love DSMs and will probably own one at some point in time, BUT they are more problem prone then most other cars on the road.

No MattD, here is what I first said, and you jumped on me saying I am living up to my name. If no one is even running 10's, then how the hell can you jump on me sayiing im living up to my name? Especially when most of the 11second cars break quite a bit too.

Dont get me wrong, I love DSM's and I think they are good cars, but the reliability simply isnt there with them for the most part. Not that it should be after you take 5 seconds off of the stock quarter mile times.

Okay, lets put this in a Power Perspective. How many people making the power to run into 11's or 10's actually make it there? Not many. Theres becoming quite a few 500-600whp cars, but none of them run long enough to make a clean pass down the track.

Ahhh you poor kid. I can't even disagree with the HORT boys on this one. They actually have a valid point. Unless its an SRT4 or something, I would just go read CVDs gun thread, ask him to borrow the biggest one and shoot yourself with it.

Oh noes, another Neon Hater. Big men we have here. He's still in High School and is SMART enough not to buy a DSM in HS, so he must be stupid right? Yep, okay big bad man.

Since when does what you drive have to do with what you know?

Yeah, just shut up about fast cars then. Take your 17 sec neon and drive off into the sunset.

Why shut up about fast cars? Just because I don't own one doesn't mean I cant talk about them and make predictions about what will happen. Its the Internet, if you dont like it, don't look.

john · 02-04-2005

A neon??? WTF are you talking about then? You drive a girls car. I guess the sport model is a fast neon though... (shakes head with disgust)

Yeah, so me driving a neon means I cant know shit about DSM's right?

"OMG he drives a neon what a girl car hahahahah" moron.

TheBlizzard · 02-04-2005

Your going to have to expect some flack for driving a Neon buddy. Remember your on a DSM board. ACRucrazy has a pretty fast Neon and he gets some shit now and then about it.

CRAIG

No, im fine with it, Im used to people bashing my car. BUT Ive never said it was fast or that it is what I want, so it doesnt bother me.

What I DONT like is when people think my opinion doesnt count because of what I drive or my age. Im pretty damn active in the DSM community and keep up with it.

TheBlizzard · 02-04-2005

Well I have to give you one thing dumb_ricer, you have done some home work on what people have done in the DSM community. Just get your own and then you won't catch so much hell for critiqing everybody elses.

I drove mine to and from the tracks (RF and Cedar falls) and didn't break after about 5-6 shitty runs at each track.

I street raced it also, never broke... just the tranny tried falling off twice.

Matt D. · 02-04-2005

WTF do you expect as far as reliability goes? We're pushing 500-600hp at the wheels and who knows how much at the crank and you expect them to never fall apart? Get a clue.

I'm jumping on you for living up to your name because YOU are the one throwing out this 10 second pass bullshit like that's all we claim to have ever been capable of doing. Most everyone is trying to be consistantly in the 11s and then going from there.

Not all of them do fall apart. I simply stated that very few DSM's can run reliable 10sec passes and you jumped on me for saying that and now your jumping on me for another reason. Internets fun.

*EDIT* And who is "were", I only see very few making 500plus WHP and you are not one of them.

From what I remember you went with a smaller faster spooling setup so you can auto-x and road race.

He lied.

You could also take a 10 second DSM and run 2 psi of boost and go out and beat on all the Hondas and Neons at the Midway or Rock Falls and be 100% reliable.

Hahah... Does this look like it'll spool fast to you?
