I'm with ya there man. Right now my car is running pig rich (thanks to a carb problem) and it's killing my power BUT even with the power loss and me running with a fouled plug I can still ring these little queers out to dry. I'll respect anyone who can make a car go fast, but these guys just care about big *** wings, crappy wheels, and cars that sound like Briggs & Straton lawn mowers (probably with less power, too). I saw in last months Hot Rod magazine there was a guy with a Civic that had a 90ci engine and a turbo running damn near 500hp! Now I'll give that guy props any day. It ran 11s and got 23mpg. But these guys in little Eclipses and Acuras don't have a chance in hell of hanging with a V8 without some SERIOUS work. Why can't they realize that? And ricers are on the rise here too. Used to be I'd see one a week or so. Now it's damn near daily and I've had it. Anybody seen my gun?
