ok i have read through this whole post. the same ol' Gm vs. Ford. nothing new. most of you people on here brag on who is faster. why? i think it is put up or shut up. anyone can brag on the net. if any of you have the guts, then race each other. so far all i see is words on my screen, no dates that are official. i wish Minnesota wasnt so far away. i would love to see the tension and the "Ford vs. Chevy" showdown. guys, you need to race, PERIOD! dont ask me to race, cause i wont and i dont care. not like i have anything to offer anyways. well good luck to you all. remember, PUT UP OR SHUT UP! :eek:

After reading this whole thing I totally agree with srv1! This is getting old fast. I hate GM's with a passion! But I'm not gonna say they are slow. I love Stangs. But I'm not gonna say they are all fast.

Oh by the way

calling ..
 
Hey Unit ..

I'll be givin' ya a call to set up something. This should be fun. As for the comment made by someone about .. No 3-5, a race is a race .. you are absolutely correct, a race is a race. The 3-5 of them is to show all of you on the board that might doubt UNIT on how freakish his car may be. If he smokes me 3 times in a row .. or 5 times in a row. Then there is all the proof required to back up his statements that people seem to doubt. And yep .. I am pretty cool, I don't care if I win or lose. hehe .. it's just a hell of a lot of fun to go fast.

And if you can go faster than 115/118, you'll smoke me. The idiot that originally bought my car had H rated tires on it so they set a speed limiter on it. Talk about one hell of a surprise the first time I figured that out while racing another camaro. Somewhere around 90+ I am pullin' ahead of him nicely and hit that 115/118 area and it says, nope we aren't lettin' ya drive faster. :(

All in all .. this should be fun for all of us.

Relax sedanman, you're taking this way too seriously, I think if I was unit I'd be defensive after being attacked by everyone.

Relax Unit, the GM vs. Ford thing will NEVER be settled... EVER. Even if you race, and win, there will still be someone that gets on your case that wants a piece. There's always someone, somewhere that can and will beat you.

I'm probably the most neutral guy here, but, man.. this is getting old... You all DO need to race... there is no need to dissect what everyone types and put them down in front of the members of their board, uncool. He says he can race you and win? Let him prove it. I know Unit is not a Troll, I know Unit can be overbearing, and I know Unit loves Mustangs.
Let it go, everyone... let these guys set up a race, quit the bitching from everyone about who's better, and post the results, win or lose. We all know that Fords can be made to go REAL fast. We all know that GM's can be made to go REAL fast. This is a pointless, unending argument that will continue forever. It's doing nothing but breeding hate and discontent among members of a really great forum.
I don't know... I'm rambling... maybe this doesn't make sense, since I just visited the lady in my avatar... ;) good luck guys, have fun with your race, and I'd be damned if I would bet 100.00 either. Race to race, and deal with the results.

Thats like saying Really Good looking Girls dont know/or say there good looking. CRAP!

Unit 5302 05-23-2002 01:43 AM

Yeah, I'm backpeddlin, which is why I put my phone number in the post to set something up. Take a look at the photo I attached if you have a hard time believing I have the car apart, lol. As for me whipping LS1's all the time... :rolleyes:

I can't do much more. Posted my email address, I have a PM box, posted my phone number, let people know as soon as I could set something up.

The 3 for 5 thing isn't any good from a stop, anyway. Cops in Anoka County or even Hennepin County are going to be all over the place after 2 runs. By the 4th run we'd be in the back of a squad car, lol. If we're going on the freeway, chances are a lot better to avoid detection in that regards. 169 is a no-no. Heavily patrolled by Champlin and Brooklyn Park cops, except maybe the section between 109th and 610, but Champlin cops patrol 109th all the time too. South of there you get into the Sheriff's and State Patrol along with Plymouth and Golden Valley. If you're in my neighborhood, watch out. Champlin has 3 unmarkeds that patrol 169. Navy Blue Ford Taurus 98ish. White Grand Am newer, and a Silver Crown Vic. Brooklyn Park is erradic in their patrol of 169. God I wish they hadn't messed with "Old Corn Road" as we liked to call it back in the day. 96th Ave off Zane in Brooklyn Park was friggen perfect. Farm road a good 1/2 mile long, nothing but fields on either side, and the road was in good shape. When they put 610 in it all went to crap. Winnetka in Brooklyn Park right off 93rd used to be killer too. Naturally they took it and blocked it off in preperation for the Ampitheater and 610. :rolleyes: I do know a couple spots that are usually quiet and are quite safe to run. I'm not about to talk about them here. Makes me wish the Anoka dragstrip was still open. Instead of 200mi+ it would be 5. Oh well, gotta love progress.

Interestingly enough, I beat a Z28 top end with my '91 Escort GT because of the S speed rated tires that came with the 112mph speed limiter on the LT1's. I guess it's one way to stay out of too much trouble, ha. That was a riot. He was smokin me soooo bad, but I eventually passed him. His cats must have been glowing white with how bad it was stinkin, lol. If the speed limiter is set at 118mph on the LS1 it must come with T speed rated tires? H rated are good for 130mph. Who knows? I didn't know the LS1's came with limiters on any of them. If anybody would have posted a top end kill of an LS1 with their stock, near stock, or even mildly modded fox bod, I would have called BS. :D

Give me a call and we'll see what's up.

Do you hear John Force, Dale Earnhart JR., Al Unser jr. etc.... after they win a race talk about the driving? No, why its implyed they are good they talk about the cars or there setup. If you are REALLY good at something you don't need to stroke your own wick. Take Evan Smith everytime he bust out a killer time he dosn't say oh but that was with me driven! Being on this board it is implyed that you can drive, and usually those who have shakey skills start a post with "I am not a very good driver" or "I am still learning".

Sorry you know bitchy girls, but take super models or what not they always talk about something they need to improve not how good they are. You are never a perfect driver you always have something to learn, and good drivers know that (hence they don't brag about their driving.

I am willing to bet that putting Ezridn in you car will improve your 1/4 times. He IS that good. Want to do turn? I bet AQUAMAN can drop that lap time, but do you hear them brag about there driving ability? NO despite the fact that Ezridn is the best driver I have ever riden with.

You can tell us the truth, the real story is a LS1 car sucked the windows right off when it came by you ;) :D

Mercury 05-23-2002 10:22 AM

Sedanman.

You know as well as I do that the Drivers names you mentioned know What they can do, and what they are very capable of.

Another thing, how many times have you heard those guys talking about SOMEONE else's bad driving???ALOT. Which is a direct way of comparing there ability against someone else.

SAME THING. DIFFRENT WAY OF SAYING IT. Your also talking about proffesionals were the playing field is a little diffrent. Those guys put on a show infront of the camera...Didnt ya think about that? They cant come off as all "I'm one of the greatest Drivers, you all suck" Attitude, because then his image would go down, and in the bussiness of getting sponsors man, you gotta sell yourself and your image. DUH

Learn alittle more about advertising and getting sponsors before ya talk there buddy boy.

As for the Pretty women comment...Man your digging. I've dated enough pretty women (Ask my friends, they've seen them and the pic) to know that majority of them know when there Hot.

Some may not think so...But most do. Once again you go to point out proffesionals...SuperModels, Obviously these people would of never went out for a modeling carrer if they thought they were ugly.

Where do you get your info from man...E!, or Oprah?

If I race you for money and smoke your awsome driven freak stang and make a $100 for it, that would make me a proffesional because I got paid to race.

So I guess I am a proffesional....

Mercury 05-23-2002 10:49 AM

Hey SedanMan..

Do you wanna know how I know about the Advertising part??? Maybe because I have a degree in it, and have worked in the field before. I think it might of been you whom brought up education before in an arguement with me...??? Was it? I have a few degrees here and there, thats just one of them.

As for getting sponsor's There are a few guys at work who race locally, and its the same game, just bigger dogs playing when it comes to the proffessionals.

Now a little more on the joking side. Yeah man, I only impressed one of them with my Mad Fly Supernatural Driving Skills. Guess what....Serouisly..Its was the Girl that drove the 2001 Trans Am WS-6 also. Ha.

Dark_5.0 05-23-2002 11:11 AM

Damn I like the chevy vs ford challenge.

After I put my car back together maybe you can find someone for me.

In the 11.9-13.5 ET range.

I only race at the track.

KillerStang 05-23-2002 11:20 AM

damn man you are an a**hole. why dont u shut the ****** up? your talkin mad **** but it is about everyone else, in my opinion your digging yourself into a hole and looking real stupid while you do it. you are a real LS-1 humper, why arnt u on an LS-1 site doing the brown nosing youe doing here?. you keep talking ur s**t about how good those guys are know, all its telling me is you really f**king blow chunks yourself. why dont you shut up and let them race if they are gonna race. i dont hear you putting down 100 bucks on a race, does that mean you suck at driving and know the outcome will be you in the rearview mirrior?. you are talking s**t about him posting alot, what the ****** are you doing? the majority of the posts are your stupid a** coments about what other people say. those might have been funny back in 6th grade, maybe should grow up a little bit. just take a couple steps back an let them do what they are gonna do, if that means race for 100 bucks or just race for to see who wins. you dont have any business in it cause guess what? you arnt in the race. so back off

KillerStang 05-23-2002 11:30 AM

last post was to sedanman, i forgot to add a the name.

Rev 05-23-2002 05:08 PM

I wonder how many actual races could be run in the time it takes to read this thread?

My bet is Unit's car might still look stock after it goes back together .........................
