unfortunately everyone takes one event and bases their opinions on it. ask anyone who saw that race how much smoke their was off my winter tires considering this was sometime in december if im not mistaken. and i not cocky, i just have confidence in what ive built, i beat my car dialy and never have any problems. its track ready everyday in that it doesnt need anything to go take it for a few drag runs, problem with street racing is theirs variables ( cars coming out, this that and the other ) drag strips theres a winner and loser.

btw for your info. cams for my corolla are $1200 just for regrinds so thats never gonna happen and my Leg is staying engine stock so i can keep my warrenty.

ever drive a VR in 2nd gear at 1200rpm, yea theres no torque. and no i dont get harrased for speeding up eglington, i got harrased for flying down on the highway with a buddy in the fast lane. its funny how many times i rip it around there and no ones ever come up and said anything. i raced over 6 months ago and ive done a few small things to my car. and why does it have to be relatively close? you need home turf advantage or something. like i said ill happily run anything at a track knowing its 100% fair for each driver.

You are lacking in the enough department.
More excuses than a supra owner.

By the way this thread is full of more high 14 second cars then a Civic meet... so you should all shut up about racing each other until you've actually got something worth racing.

Bigger contact patch. A "good" drag tire is 15" diameter.
