I'M NOT SAYING DRAG RACING IS BS, but what production cars these days are made to drag? None. Hell, what car from any factory is made to be a drag beast (I've done no research, so I expect to be proved wrong). Now look at how many cars are tested at the Nurnburgring Circuit. 1/4 mile times are becoming less and less a factor in automotive advertisement; How many cars do you see advertised on TV that show a car blasting down a straight road? Now look at drift+road course. Mazda6 has the drifting in the desert. The new MX-5 I believe is shown on a racecourse. Hell, even the Jeep Grand Cherokee is shown in contest against a BMW and Audi on a race course, right before it hits the rough terrain. Drag racing certainly has its niche in motorsports, don't think I mean to say otherwise. What I argue is that it has NOTHING compared to the worldwide impact of road racing. Even drift contests are becoming popular (not that the crowd it caters to is the most intellectually sound). Straight line dynamo's (sp?) deserve a lot of respect for what they do, because as we've seen in the past, it is a dangerous and sometimes fatal sport. I think, though, that a road course such as Mid-Ohio generates more support and attention to motorsports in general. EDIT: In response to your post, buckeye, at the mid-ohio school, I blew by both a Z06 and an NSX in a Mid-Ohio RSX. The Z06 wasn't really pushing it, but the NSX guy knew how to drive and I still got by him on the hot laps. Its all about the driver. There was a John Cooper S Works Cooper out on the circuit raping EVERYONE.

uh oh

true, true and true except the frats here at BU are fucking lame...MIT frats are crazy

gimme a break, i'm trying to make jello shots for the chicas across the hall.. * > dorm life

yeah...maybe if you're big bird perv

what is with all the FNG's in here drooling all over this car???

at 17 and driving that car, you should know that you're a target for the five-oh, especially if its new (to you)

what really sets the mood is the shift light + auto. yeah.

i dono. I prefer pointing out blatant contradictions to religious extremists

is this "Stewie Griffin: The Untold Story" thing?

i'll wait until electronic paper becomes affordable

i'm a neutral agnostic...you wanna make something of it?

reasonable request:thumbup: something doesn't seem right:confused: ok, now I'm really confused.

A CRUMB CLOG IN US hahahahahaha

put it in her ass

GTO isn't a sports car...its a muscle car, and its not even that great as that. Maybe if it could turn....

i love absolutist mullet vs. SPS arguments.

corrections: its not all democrats; it is only the radical few whose ideas are treasured by the liberal media(and i use that term regretfully) as stories that are outrageous enough to raise ratings. Most democrats are intelligent people, it just so happens that the ones annoying enough to raise their voices are the ones who get noticed. I myself am moderate, so I don't have any particular affiliation, but I think radicals suck in every way possible.

watch out for a kid driving a blue r32...if its who i think he is, he will try and race you and he is more or less a complete idiot...his dad has a Carrera GT and a '66 Cobra 427 S/C though !!!

this and more "When Keeping It Real Goes Wrong" continues...stay tuned

dios mio

i had a friend get pulled over in his v6 camaro for a front license plate violation (in the window) and the cop accused him of stealing the car b/c he had only owned it for 2 weeks and the registration hadn't been done yet...fuckin retards

for all the people who say "it doesn't matter what people think of you", i ask you...on a first impression, would you hire a person wearing a business suit or a wife beater and swimsuit? it does matter what people think of you, if you have any self respect at all you should care how you're viewed MOST of the time. i know a gay guy who is probably one of the toughest guys i know...at the end of the day, he still takes it up the butt though. don't get the beetle

its what happens when you design cars based on fat chicks

its gonna be even worse when assholes start hoarding it and drive prices up further
