What's up with these ricers??

a civic? interesting

It's not fair. He ran 10's @ 139 when he DD'ed it only making 706whp years ago. Now its trailered.

There are places in BR where the cops just hide and watch. I may or may not know where those places and times are, and I NEVER participated in such activity. I honestly wish there was more access to tracks just to eliminate the whole concept of lighting them up on the street.

Auto-x is 1000x's better, less investment, waaaaaaaay more track time.

+1, handling is more fun IMO.

you know a civic is a front wheel drive car when ur rating whp its kinda misleading right?

Not really. If it did, my 370Z wouldn't run identical 1/4 mile times to a C5 corvette. = RWHP, far less tq. Near equal weight. Equal 1/4 mile times, = 0-60, -5-60. Right down the line

Not really, whp is whp.

What is.. "some"...those are only high 12 second cars stock.

I would say more like low 13's on a good day

I was quoting typical ''bests''.

When I mean through the woods, it's more like:

is your z stock?

whp as far as turning a dyno yes, but it just never shows as good on the pavement as it does on the paper from my experience. He is saying a 700hp civic that weighs less than half of what my car does, runs 10's? Im sorry but thats not impressive at all as far and HP to Time. at that ratio I would need 1400whp to tie based on weight to HP coeficient right?

 

[Plinky]

neways its bedtime but ill hit yall up tomorrow, nothing like good HP bs'in

Z06 was, 370Z has very minor mods.

His clutch slipped down the whole track for that run. He re-built the entire setup after that.

So your telling me your pretty much stock 370z took a C5 Z06 Corvette?

Where did you see that?
No, it's about equal to a stock C5. Not C5Z.

 

[blackboltss]

I usually only get hicks in Z71's with flowmasters and 24's reving at me. Z06's even back down. My car is slow, but I guess people freak out when there's a blower sticking out of the hood.

Ride?

 

[blackboltss]

ok. My bad... its late haha... 370z from what I have seen hover around mid/low 13's stock depending on driver/conditions

Feels like a mid/low 13 second ride to me.

 

[blackboltss]

There really needs to be more tracks around... or even a supervised stretch of road ? Sucks not being able to stretch my cars legs every once in a while.
