Fastest Street Car On Style - Page 9

A//// Guy · 08-01-2006

Yea this is getting pretty rediculous. Fast is fast no matter how you cut it. Taking a boat of a car -3S- and having a goal to build something that no one else has ever built is unique in itself and its very awesome.

Im sure it has more capabilities in it and will probably only get faster or broken.. those are the only two options here. When you mod any car no matter what brand or what kind of engine, there will always be problems and some cars just need more refinement then others. Especially when you consider that a 50 trim 3S has never really been done before, and pretty much anyone can build up a camaro witha huge V8 and some NOS. There is a bit of a difference between those cars.

Money will always be a factor as well, Id say its the biggest one. Props to everyone with fast cars, its hard work and should be appreciated and not bashed. I hate how everyone always has to "have the fastest car." Im frankly glad I got out of that phase, because I greatly enjoy being in the drivers seat and not underneath my car everyday.

Sure I drive a 14 second German cone machine, and ill admit its not super fast, but I love it to death and it dominates the DSM in terms of quality and just pure driving enjoyment.

The title of this thread lead me to believe it was going to be about the fastest street car on this board. I honestly thought someone had ran faster than ecoli's car. It turned out to be about some mid eleven second passes. That is not the fastest street car, that is weaksauce.

I wonder why nobody mentioned anything about that statement... Let me explain where I was coming from, I wasn't complaining about a damn thing. Someone just needed to tell you to STFU already. I was in no way asking you to race. Your posts were full of excuse after excuse like a damn broken record. When you got offended by my STFU statement you decided it would be cool to tell me to "see my 'mid 11 second car' on the highway". You just happened to call out a "steak" instead of an "apple".

Like I said earlier, I hope you get your car where you want it to be and I also hope it goes around in circles like it's riding on rails and whatever goals you set it up for.

-The Steak

Beefman,

Well a few things about your post.
1)I did not make this thread, we mearly ran a few cars that are quick on the highway. Another member of this forum started this "mess".
2)I would still run your "steak" on the highway no problem, as that is what my car is setup for, not 1320'. With the slicks it should go very well at the drag strip, after I iron out a few issues, but it was not built with straight line being the only focus.
3)I don't circle race my car, but it is nice having the capabilities of taking corners at 3x the posted speed limits comfortably.
Excuses or reasons, people were asking me what was wrong. Maybe I should do like allan said and just STFU about all the stuff we do. I am sure this board is entertained by constant food/beverage/hangout threads. Sorry to bring a little bit of trial and error (or excuses as you would call them) to public knowledge. That is why the statement was made referring to my car as a mid 11 second car (as that is what its current best pass is) and not a 9 second car (the goal of the car) as I was NOT trying to make excuses.

Honestly you need to get off your fucking horse. I didn't even notice that you had posted in this thread until you brought up your high 8 second camaro. That is a fast car steak-guy, very fast car. I wish you the best of luck with the rest of your nitrous.
FYI, I made the thread in reference to all the benchracers chiming in on something they don't even have a fucking clue about.

-Apple "sauce"

.

Reid-Yeah you can come with, we plan on being out there early saturday.

People defending my car-Thanks but I really dont need it. Outlaw lives in Texas and from my experiences the cars will never line up, so it doesn't matter. His car is obviously faster in a straight line, and since what this thread is about, he is the clear winner. Yeah my car has a/c, yeah it has a stereo, yeah it corners well, yeah it can easily top 200mph, and yes it looks better than a camaro, but in the end that isn't what the thread is about. I thank you all for your support, hopefully I can post up some better times after this weekend.

What is the current record for that?? I got 3 years in august, not always on jackstands, but definately not drivable ever.

niterydr · 08-01-2006

3 years is a long time.
Jet-We are going to hit up the test and tune at rockfalls.

Yeah, it will probably be pretty much 3 years to the day, I think it was august 15th or so that it was delivered, and august 16th it was on jackstands being torn apart by you.

I think the black/carbon fiber neon at my shop takes the title for that one, somewhere around 4-5 years.:P But it is soon to terrorise the streets.

damn, is that privately owned, or a shop car though?

A//// Guy · 08-01-2006

We have our project that has been sitting engineless/trannyless on the side of the house since 1998. Its made it into the garage every year or so but then back out again because there is no time to work on it.... We managed to pull the engine and tranny when we got it but they have been sitting in the garage waiting...

I hate body work... so that would be why we havent started that project. Project = 1970 MB 300SEL 6.3L Plus I had the dsm during the first 5 years of that cars existance at our house so there was definetly no time to work on it then

haha

92EvilTalon · 08-01-2006

Customer car.

When he dropped it off, for a huge/crazy project. He told us he prepaid and ordered his race built engine from one of the renowned neon engine builders of that time. Well that turned into a 4-5 year drama, but we finally received a motor from Darrel Cox Racing(who was not the original builder) a few months ago.

Pimpin Dsmstyle · 08-01-2006

I'm the guy that always has 2-3 dsm all not working ! And I love this thread. Josh is right, it's been a LONG time since we had a real thread on the boards :P This is the only thread I've followed in months.

Glad to see your car is going again swanny.

Outlaw = Bernie? Fast shit man, fast shit.

I don't think I saw vassil post anything. His car was pretty damn fast if I recall!

Shane ran a better time than 10.4 yet?

Swifty1638 · 08-01-2006

No, shane still has his car sitting there. We all know Shane comes out with a setup that takes years to catch up to, he makes like 1-2 passes on it, and then tears it all apart again, for whatever reason. Then, 3-4 years later, people catch back up, and just as someone nears him, he leapfrogs ahead again! Shane, I say it's time to get that damn white 2g out again!

Josh, I wanna see a vid of that speedo at 200mph. It takes quite a bit of gearing, and a long ass straight to get a car to do that, but if you can do it, That's something I beg to see.
