K, simple question back to you then, what makes you have the right to drive over the speed limit? What cuz you have sports car? Cuz you have more hp than others? If you answer "cuz driving to the speed limit is boring" then I'll just simply reply back at you "then go to drag or to the track and don't tell me, 'You can't go high speed there.' cuz that's pure BS".

I think this is another guy suffering from slow car syndrome. My friend had a 1999 2.5RS and that thing was slow as balls in a straight line. The engine was complete garbage. The whole cars design was junk, down to the SHITTY ASS BRAKE ASSEMBLY on the stock brakes. The only thing that was great about the car was that it was light, and when you SWAP it and spend a fuckload of money on the suspension, it will really shine. It was only good in the twisties, and even bland at that cause of the lack of power(110whp ftw?) |

Yes, going over 120mph blown front driver side tire, flip the car over 5 time... yes, it was just started as fun freeway pull.
& say what you will bout my current car, I careless. Slow? Sure it's 3x slower than NSX. repair parts for my car? Sure, it's 3x cheaper to fix/buy than NSX. It's perfect car for college student. Have problem w that? Too bad |

P.S. blowing a tire can happen anytime, anywhere. 1) if you never check your pressure 2)you run on WanLi tires or equivalents. |

btw, yes I have changed out stock brakes before. I'm not newbie. Overhauled & tuned several cars before, thank you. If you're so street racing happy, why don't you write some here in open public forum. Please, I'm waiting. While at it, post some pic and vid too. Last edited by ichitaka05; 08-31-2010 at 01:32 PM. |

Hopefully you guys won't get in trouble with the law like I did when I was a young fool. I stand correct that it's not worth it, both financially and time wise. But what can I say, hey it's a free country.
I had my fair share of tickets back in the days; mid to late 90's when it was underground. It was a mess -Speed Contest -Exhibition of Speed -Driving over a simulated island (illegal U-turn over 2 DY) -Aiding and abetting (I was flagging @ "Fire House" and this violation eventually turned into a serious offense which lead to your vehicle being impounded) -Vehicle is too low (CHP measured my headlights- CA law is 22" from the ground to the center of the headlight and mine was 19") -Sent to the state referee twice (For my JG heads/Bullfrog cams and the other was b/c of my 80 shot direct port.) -License suspended for 6 months, 5 pts on my driving record

As far as going to the track, I do go to the track . But, it's not like I'm going to see a Ferrari/Lambo/Exotic/Sports Car on the road and ask him, "hey... let's not do this on the street. How about meeting me at the track on the next test and tune day?" ![]() Quote:

![]() Here is a video I made during Sunday's cruise: Be sure to note the 65 to 125+ mph pull at the 3:55 mark. Here is a 60 - 140 mph pull a few years back: http://www.streetfire.net/video/bpu-...he-e_26902.htm Here is me racing a GTI VR6: http://www.streetfire.net/video/bpu-...pray_30916.htm Here is me racing a bike: http://www.streetfire.net/video/1994...600rr_3761.htm Here is me racing an L67 Pontiac GTP: http://www.streetfire.net/video/turb...upra_22289.htm And... I saved the best for last. This was my first street race ever back in 2003: http://www.streetfire.net/video/bpu-...obra_37071.htm Note: You can see me shift into 6th gear. We hit 165 mph on that first race
