Are people honestly this dense? /rant
ok so i have to vent a little frustration. I am not going to throw any names in here, and try to keep it calm. they know who they are.
why is it that people think their "stock-exhaust only" car is faster than a cam/exhaust/tune car? obviously both LS1s Im just curious to understand where logic comes into play here?
360rwhp > 320rwhp correct?
4.10 > 2.73 correct?
sooo i dont understand the logic behind some people thinking they are better than everyone else.

i suppose....i wont loose sleep over it. im not the one that goes around talking **** to other people just for the sole purpose of making myself feel bigger.
why is it that people have to bother me about racing and ****? im not trying to prove anything to anyone. i just want a quick street car that looks nice. but everyone has to run their ****ing mouths for some ungodly reason.
mike, there was no bench racing involved. im just trying to figure out the mentality of some of my fellow humans.

are they both the same type manual vs. manual? was the person just trying to be a dick on purpose. I've done that just because I thought the other person was a tool so I just make **** up that I know will piss them off. LOL
Mostly people talk trash because they are so insecure about themselves they need to try to make others look bad or foolish. You need to know when to walk away. I've said it before and I'll say it again my favorite saying is, "a wise man knows not to argue with a fool, from a distance people can't tell the distance."

The fact is, there are idiots on all sides. When I hear one, first thing I do is just walk away/ignore the trash talk. If they keep it up, I just simply invite them to the track to find out.

Was this person truly talking smack or just messing around? You blew up on someone in another thread for just poking some fun.

if a person with a ton of mods, has a bad tune....he can lose
if a person with a ton of mods, cant drive.......he can lose
reading a list of parts the car has, and deciding from that which car will win and lose, is just gonna lead to headaches

if some dude came up to me and talked chit about his car beating mine, this is what i would do:
Proceed to break not one but both of his legs, and then tell him to race me
