Define fun to drive?

Jersey Mike 10-02-2012 08:55 PM

VWs are the new hotness. Just sayin'

Mike 10-02-2012 08:55 PM

Early 90s altima

rickyd13 10-02-2012 08:56 PM

I've owned a blazer 2 camaros and a lincoln hate the lincoln and the blazer was fun bc it was the first car love cars that are fun to drive i want to get into autocross and drifting but i guess it could be no drift as long as its fun to drive

rickyd13 10-02-2012 08:58 PM

my best friend has a 97 mk3 gti with a fully built vr6 car is a rocket would run with my camaro till higher speeds then my long ass 2.73 gears would keep me in my power band

Mike 10-02-2012 08:58 PM

Wtf is "no drift".

If you know how to drive any rear wheel drive car can drift.

Also. Setting up a car for auto-x and setting up a car for drifting are 180* apart. Which is kind of counter productive to do both

BigAls87Z28 10-02-2012 08:59 PM

S2K, best 240 you can find, an older 300Z, a heavily used 350Z, or Miata.

Jersey Mike 10-02-2012 08:59 PM

Get a mid-90s Jeep. That's what all the cool kids drive!

rickyd13 10-02-2012 09:00 PM

had fun going off road in the blazer and run racing and sliding the camaros
the blazer off road was great btw for anyone who may buy one just don't try to climb and giant snow banks the sink into them and are a bitch to get out and by that i mean like 2 and a half hours of shoveling until i was able to get one of our plow trucks to pull it the ret of the way

rickyd13 10-02-2012 09:03 PM

s2k are ridiculously priced bc they have the k20 i love 240s but there really are to find in nice shape and i do use the car as a daily so the setup won't be anything major

What track did you guys run at?

rickyd13 10-02-2012 09:06 PM

I'm getting the feeling that this is going to become a joke with random thing with a pic of a camaro lifted on 33s

rickyd13 10-02-2012 09:10 PM

a very good friend of ours father owns a big complex that he lets us mess around in so that the cops don't bother us after his son got his brand new 370 impounded so the parking lot is ours at night everything from a 900 dollar 240 to people riding circle wheelies on stunt bikes

rickyd13 10-02-2012 09:12 PM

btw higher speeds dont always meet 100+ i got most of my power between 20-35 50-70

Mike 10-02-2012 09:12 PM

You do know this is still illegal?

So your defense to the post about racing on the road is that you only raced up to 25?

Dude. :bertstare:

rickyd13 10-02-2012 09:15 PM

no posted speeds in a private lot

Lol.

When in a parking lot with no posted speed limit... The limit is 10mph. Also I would LOVE to see how fast your buddies fathers insurance company would cut and run if anything happened.

rickyd13 10-02-2012 09:23 PM

that is true

and for anyone who wants to see my 1st camaro I'm trying to post a few pics it was a 94 v6 i paid 900 for and sold for 1200 after putting almost 5k on it within 3 months

Go get yourself a 90s civic 5spd before you hurt yourself or anyone else

Lt1_8U 10-02-2012 09:34 PM

So much fail, I love it..

I hear mountain bikes are fun to ride, you would smoke anyone at the higher speeds because of the gears and its easier on the wallet.
