One platform... maybe if you spent more time on one platfrom you'd have at least one fast car...

Dave being a mod should take a more professional role and instead of attacking a post redirect the op to the info he deems as fit for the topic being searched for.

So the mods should take direction from you on how to run this forum? Who the fuck put you in charge? This site has done just fine without your fucking opinions.



You joedls are the only person I have directly insulted.

I would consider the following statement insulting.

Wow is all I can say to the most immature response from a mod I have ever seen.




And you can say what you want I have proof to back up what I say. You sir are nothing more than a troll.

Proof of what? Please provide said proof. I'm lots of things. A troll ain't one of them.

certainly seems like an insult to me.

That's your opinion, which you are certainly entitled too, however, this board is not like other, so your view is a misguided within our cyberspace.

I didn't attack the post, I answered your question in a direct manner, did direct you to a thread that has much of what you are seeking.

Fast for who's area? I live in southwest Missouri. Most people around here think a high 13 sec car is fast let alone an 11 sec one. There are a few that run mid-low 8's like the typical 632 all aluminum bbc camaro's or the 110mm single turbo sbf fox bodies or the twin turbo Ls based fourth gens. I don't like building one platform not only because it's easy but because it can become easy to get bored with as well. I don't know how many times I've seen guys jump from one car to another pouring a few thousand dollars at each one and never going faster than 12's or even traping over 110. When you have a thread like I was trying to start you get all the info in one area and people can then look at who's hooking better and get the info from that build then find the guy making the most power and get from their info what they need in order to go faster. The dyno part can tell what's been taken off the car as far as weight by first know it's et then power and then factory weight. It's about knowing all aspects of that setup. Which kit provides the best rwhp gain, which tires are hooking the best on these cars, etc.

If me saying a response from a mod that says "fuck" in it is immature is an insult to you then by all means I apologize. I know mods have a tough job monitoring as many parts of the forums as they can to try and keep organization in check. But a vulgar response to a simple question shouldn't have been a mods first response. And I'm not telling anybody how to run this site. I look at things from a management stand point. If businesses see that mods are allowed to kuss at individuals for any given reason they might look down upon the site and pull sponsorship. That is bad for not just the site but everyone on it. That is by no means a threat of any kind just a simple pointing out of possibilitys. It would have been a very short thread had Dave just said "try looking in the et thread or ask about avg jet sizes in the chat room". Again just advice.

First I didn't "cuss" at you.

Second we are all big boys here, if cursing is offensive to you, then I apologize to you, but you are on the wrong site. We do not censor words here.

Third - let the site owner worry about his sponsors and he'll provide direction to the staff has he deems fit.

TIA

Blah,blah, blah, blah. You don't make any sense. In one post you ridicule my mid-11 second car. And now you're saying an 11 second car is fast. Make up your mind already (although I do understand that you're at a disadvantage in this area).

Oh, and BTW, running low 12s and 114 MPH with a 125 shot of nitrous isn't very impressive either.

And joedls the proof I was referring to is timeslips and video. I can provide proof of my cars but what you said can only be speculation as you have no clue about me or any physical part of me.

Are you smoking crack? Did I question your times? All I said was that your junk doesn't impress me. I don't need proof that it's junk. And who the hell said anything about any "physical part" of you? Delusional much?

I would move west if my wife didn't like Missouri so much. And I ridiculed the fact that your car has not one, but two power adders and is barely quicker than my n/a car. I never said it wasn't a quick car. Your car has a lot of potential as seen by its fairly high trap speeds, but is either lacking in traction or driver. And that's a general statement as I don't know how you drive unless you have an in car video. Also I don't really consider a high 11 sec car that fast any more. I, like most drag junkies, am always wanting to go faster. When I get a chance my TA will go from the pansy 355 that's in it to a forged 383 then get the crap sprayed out of it. I already have most of the parts to put nitrous on my SRT and shot for a 130 trap. But going for those goals in any of them requires research. And it's much easier to go through one thread for the info your seeking than 50.

Well another mans "junk" is another mans treasure. My junk has won three national titles so I'll stick with my junk. And you referred to being bigger and kicking more ass which would be a refrence to my physical size and capabilities.

You're not very bright, are you? I was just pointing out.....oh never mind. You win.

Please continue to tell the mods how they should run this site. Maybe you can get them to turn it into a twin of one of those various other sites you like so much. When that day comes, you won't have to worry about arguing with me anymore.

I didn't say they had to be a twin of any other site. I made a suggestion for a single type of thread. That's all. And I know what you meant I just prefered to have a logical response and ignore the sarcasm. The mods can continue to run it as they deem nessecary. If they make changes based off what I've said and make a single thread for people with nitrous (or n/a or fi) to go, cool. If not, oh well.

You wouldnt have caught any flack if you would have put this question in the correct section. Such as drag or here in chit chat. The tech section gets policed hard for this kind of stuff. Tech its for troubleshooting and install info. This kind of thread "hey my cars ran this with these mods, whats your car run" is not a tech topic here on this forum regardless of what other fourms do or what you think about it.

If you want to find out what guys are running with no2 check out the drag section ranking list. It lists their times and mods/tires etc. That will give you an idea of what these cars are capable of on the juice. Then if you want to discuss mods good for no2 you should have made a thread in the chit chat section. Thats why it got moved here anyway. I sighed becasue I knew it was gonna get derailed lol

I'm on 15 sites and all of their stickies for posting and rules are nearly all the same. As well as general layout of sections. And their tech threads usually have one or two threads that don't always involve tech. They obviously don't monitor them as much(which isn't a good thing). So my normal attributes for a tech thread isn't the same. Technical info to me is any type of technical info. Numbers are my vice. I can crunch et, weight, hp, mph, 60ft, da, dyno, and weather data all day long. So to me that is a type of "tech" thread. Installs to me are more of a troubleshooting matter and not as technical. Maybe because I turn wrenches for a living(not on cars as no shop around here pays more than $9 an hour for employees). I will make a second trip through those stickies and this time not skim through them. But it still seems like more of a hassle to dig through multiple threads to find the needed info just IMO.
