fair enough. Mine is not a trailer queen I drove it to good guys this year and some other shows as well. I dont have HVAC but it has a complete interior with passenger seats and belts.

You did not say 2010 as the pre req...

I can drive mine to trails and home and looks as normal as about any other 72 nova on the street.

 

Oh well I guess you want to narrow your field

 

I also dont play on the street and your 3 competitions have nothing to do with the street

I was just giving you shit.

From what I know of your car-I'd say YOUR car is a street car. You'd be in IMO

Add a category for naturally aspirated and I'm in...

 

 

... Better make it naturally aspirated corvette

 

 

... Black corvettes, with red valve covers

 

... And custom plates

 

 

.... Plates that say "NEVER L8"

Fair suggestion-or-a % bump for an all NA car in all categories.

It seems like ray or mark would take them all or at least 2 of 3 with ease. Street driven is weak and same with having valid ohio plates. I do like the idea and concept and would be interested in trying my hand.

 

When would the end date be to have the fastest pass or would this be at a track rental...

Ray and Mark's car do not fit the definition of "street" car for the purposes of this. By street car, I mean a car that you drive during the week, race when the border is open. -It would look normal driving in traffic. You drive to the track and back. Take to work on Fridays-has passenger seats..HVAC...ect. If you car has not seen "action" on the street since 2010, you don't fit the bill. Hell considering yours is a trailer queen, some may question your car! Just an example of what I am taking about-and what other members of CR can "vote" on.

I think all would agree, including Mark and Ray, that Ray and Mark's cars are not street cars anymore.

Oh, and of course I am in. To specify-papal would be paid to an account administered by a trusted third part or 2 and I-Tilley, Old Man Ray...ect.

IN

Don King is back and wants to set the tables for a heated 2013. It seems like there is a lot of heat already int he CR kitchen-lets see what you are really made of!

This is what I am thinking to make it fair/all encompassing.Feel free to add your thoughts and ideas.

$100 buy in. This gets you into the party.

3 Contests-

1)Dyno. WHP per Liter to make it fair. Dyno must be witnessed my other CR members, or verified by video. Entrants post their engine size at the time of payment.

2)Quickest car- Fastest ET. Slicks OK. No celebrity drivers!

3)Fastest car- best MPH. Same rules apply.

This would be eligible to CR members only. These also have to be STREET cars. Plated, street driven, and flown to Mexico every now and again. No rules on interior, exhaust..ect. If you are BauCe enough to drive on the street with a side exit exhaust (SLowTalon for example) then your good in my book. The other members of CR will determent eligibility if there is a question.

Winners awarded as follows-

33% for wining any one arena. (EX-if you win 2, you get 66% of the total pot) If one person wins all 3 categories, you get the whole pot! I will personally get a fitting trophy and T shits made for you-and cover your tab at a crowning ceremony at the place of your choosing!

Also-I am considering doing this for either ClevelandRacing AND ColumbusRacing, or both forums separately.

Let me know what you guys think.

Also-let me know if you would be in for this.

DAYUM.

When Billy Bob said Ima drag that fuckin Chevy around the block-He wer'nt lyin. Giggity

Oh, and as for needing nothing more than a 9mm to defend your home or you're not a "real man", remind me to show you how useless your 9mm pistol is against someone with even a little training next time I see ya.

 

We'll see how much of a "real man" you are then.

.

I am not going to start a “I can through a football a mile” thread, but there was a shift in the universe since the last time I saw you, I am 100% sure my physical attributes and “training” in any type of one on one fighting scenario would trump yours as well.

But Yenner-If you are 5 feet or more away from me, and I had my Glock 17, you would be 100% dead before you could lay a pinky on me.

 

Really? It's impossible to think that someone can kill 26 people with a Louiseville Slugger but possible for someone to kill 1000 people with an M16 in one minute? This is by far the worst thought out thing I've ever heard from you JP.

 

.

Yes, the kids may have been helpless if he walked in with a knife or a bat (as suggested in this thread), not the teachers. I mean does that really need to be specified? You are really reaching there. I still can’t believe people are trying to compare a few semi auto hand guns and a Ar -15 to a fucking baseball bat being help by a 95 pound pip squeak?? I have not words for that-its beyond stupid-but the same crap echoed from the majority of gun nuts. I am not posting in this thread any further-I am not going to change anyone’s opinion, nor do I care to.

Merry Christmas to the trigger-happy segment of CR

I would LOVE for you to find one time in history when anyone, especially an untrained shooter, got off 1000 kills in one minutes time with an M16 or similar. I look forward to the evidence.

.

I never said it was done, or could be done in this case-but one bullet can be one kill-feel free to YouTube M16 firing tests and do the math. Its theoretically possible-as theoretically possible as this mentally ill kid shooter killing 26 people with a base ball bat as other gun nuts have suggested in this and similar threads. That is laughable. Also comparing a car to a semi automatic rifle is laughable.

When I was in the naval academy, I shot several weapons from a SIG 9mm, M16's, even M777. I am no gun nut, I own a weapon for home defense , and I have my onions that are not going to change. If you feel you need more than a 9mm for home defense-move. If you can’t handle that-you are not a real man anyways. If you are worried you will one day need to revolt against the government, leave the country. If hunt-and you are licensed-you should be able to purchase a one shot hunting rifle (real men bow hunt anyways). The same rifle can be used for sport shooting. Because of this-I personally don’t feel there is any need for anyone to posses any semi or fully automatic rifled or “machine” guns.

That’s it, its that simple.

since the people you know own class three firearms, how many have done something illegal with them, actually how many class three firearms have been used in a crime since they were banned?

an m4 or m16 firing 1000 rounds a minute? When you say things of that nature it leads me to believe you haven't educated yourself on the subject and it is hard for me to listen to what you are saying seriously and you are just knee jerk reacting to what is going on in the news.

Serious question, what is a "laid out" m16

So I don't know what I would use for home defense, but an ar could be used just as well as a shotgun or pistol, why wouldn't I want more rounds in what I was betting my life on in a situation.

I have raced on the street and I shoot the guns everyone is demonizing. The similarities are there between both in the ways people defend, or attack either. The defenses people use are the same. To call people stupid really shows you are just acting on emotions and not thinking.

If you want to educate yourself on the actual numbers let me know I can recommend some absolutely hard books to read, but the information is good to know. I forced myself to read them even though they were awful to read

I never said it can shoot 1000 rounds a minute

can put almost 1000 rounds in a crowd of people in less than a minute..

There are M16’s that can shoot 950 rounds a minute off the shelf. There are some aftermarket ones I have heard of shooting a bit faster, but I have never seen one so I can’t speculate. A “laid out” M16 is comparable to a “laid out” sports car-every option available, including 250 round mags. I if need further information, I will ask my brother who is a 18b Special forces Weapons Sergeant, but thanks for the offer.

JP, changing threads has not changed the fact you haven't any idea about weapons. Adam is being pretty easy going about it, in pointing this out to you. You really bring nothing to the table on this. Given that the majority of the gun conversations span from the school shooting, you are bringing more conflict to a discussion that all sides agree you know nothing about. Everything you have posted has been addressed. I mentioned it in the other thread. You are very good at making cars go fast, please stick to that. This is just a topic you don't have a full grasp on yet.

Look up. I don’t think the knowledge base is the issue, I think my opinion is simply an unpopular one on CR.

who has m16's or m4's?

Don't be the media, those are different from what everyone has

I know a few civilians that have them, and NONE of them have any business having one-but-that’s not the issue People feel that they not only have the right to possess such/similar weapons, but the NEED. Both of those point and the arguments for them are blowing my mind right now. Keep reading

But, do you have any good reason for me NOT to have one (referring to said M16)? Im pretty sure a bullet has the same effect regardless of what it was fired from. Trying to regulate what type of firearms you should and should not have is just fucking stupid, atleast in my opinion. All I have to say is that the day someone shows up at my front door to disarm me is likely going to be the same day I die.

Yes, because a laid out M16 a few 100 round magazines can put almost 1000 rounds in a crowd of people in less than a minute. Yes, the potential to kill 1000 fucking people in a minute. How fucking stupid are you gun nuts? Seriously. Please tell me why you need such a weapon for home defense?

so once again, perhaps Obama needs to ditch his Obama Phone program and free healthcare that I'm paying for and instead focus on education.

The program started buy REAGAN you mean? Great idea, that will fix all of this, and really solidifies the validity of your viewpoint.

and how many people did you almost kill when you wrecked the colt,

you are an idiot.

Seriously can the members of CR get any more stupid?

Zero, besides myself. I never claimed that it was smart-but it risked my own ass. The only people I passed at speed were semis that would not have noticed I was there if I ended my life into the back of their trailer.

And if you take this stance, every person that has street raced, ever, is comparable to this shooter? REALLY? How in your mind is this a valid point to bring up? While we were at this peak of stupidity it-let’s take it a step further. What if I did die? Then I would be comparable to the shooter in your eyes?

http://www.columbusracing.com/forums/showthread.php?t=63536&highlight=Kenny+dead

Well fuck Kenny too then, right? He endangered others why enjoying his hobby a bit recklessly. Is that what you want to do?

Of course not-but THAT is how stupid this argument is.

But you are for handguns, 15-19 year olds are not offing themselves with $1000 rifles, it's $200 handguns.

I am not the one comparing Colts to guns. It's a rediclous nonsenical comparison.

Turn in all stupid, unsafe, jallopy turbo-hoopties. You are more of a risk to society than my guns. There is no fucking reason for you to have one.

 

See the problem?

 

When unsafe turbo jallopys acount for 85% of all deaths for 15-19 year olds, I would 100% be against unsafe turbo jallopys.

JP, my advice would be to either make a thread in the Kitchen to debate the gun stuff, or just not say anything at all. Gun control is one of those few topics that makes CR go absolutely fucking bananas.

I really don’t care enough to debate it. My post came from a email reply to a chain started by a mail room clerk who makes 28k to spend on his gun collection (living in him moms house, mind you) who I consider a weirdo, may not be employed come Friday at this point. There is not one person I that has a LARGE gun collection, including AR’s, AK’s M 16’s…ect. That is not a fucking weirdo. THAT’S what’s scary, the only people they seem really up in arms about owning multiple assault rifles are the only people that have no business OWNING MULTIPLE ASSULT RIFFLES.

But like I said-my post was copy-paste. That’s about how much I really care.

 

Why is this so hard to understand for people? I hear people say, "This is the US, it'll never happen!" Do you all really trust your politicians in the least? Almost every American agrees that you can't trust them with your money, so why would should we trust them to do what's right when we have absolutely no way to defend ourselves? Take a look at history. This shit happens all the time. It's exactly what happened when this country came into existence, hence, why it is #2 (!) on the list of important shit we have a right to in this country. #2!!!!! out of 27, it's #2.

 

:no:

Yes, it was very improtant- in 1791! :lolguy:

SWITZERLAND ISSUES EVERY HOUSEHOLD A GUN!

SWITZERLAND'S GOVERNMENT TRAINS EVERY ADULT THEY ISSUE A RIFLE.

SWITZERLAND HAS THE LOWEST GUN RELATED CRIME RATE OF ANY CIVILIZED COUNTRY IN THE WORLD!!!

!

Yes, and Switzerland also has stricter gun control policies than we do.

The sale of automatic firearms, selective fire weapons and certain accessories such as sound suppressors ("silencers") is forbidden (as is the sale of certain disabled automatic firearms which have been identified as easily restored to fully automatic capability). The purchase of such items is however legal with a special permit issued by cantonal police. The issuance of such a permit requires additional requirements to be met, e.g. the possession of a specific gun locker

Also-they have NO standing army-they are the army! The Swiss Army has long been a Militia trained and structured to rapidly respond against foreign aggression. Swiss males grow up expecting to undergo basic military training, but they are still regular civilians.

When stating facts-lease state all of them. You have CCW, you have the 2nd amendment, no one is taking your right to self defense-just turn in your M-16 as there is no fucking reason for you to have one.

He somehow heard about what we was doing out in LA on their news. Honestly I am in disbelief right now. I never in my wildest dreams thought I would be part of something like this. I really anticipated taking a few bears for family and friends. Now I feel we are taking for our entire community and I have no problem with that. The only conflicting thoughts/feelings I am having is, I wish this was for a different reason....

You are the MAN by the way. Kudos to you!

My company just send a Uhaul full of donations out there as well.

Do you even know what the 2A means? I am pretty sure you don't have a clue. The 2A is not to protect us from foreign invaders or zombies. There is a hint for ya, mabey you need to go back to history class and learn what the 2A was really intended for.

Yes, I do.

"That the People have a right to keep and bear Arms; that a well regulated Militia, including the body of the People capable of bearing Arms, is the proper, natural and safe defence of a free State; That the Militia should not be subject to Martial Law except in time of War, Rebellion or Insurrection. That Standing Armies in time of Peace are dangerous to Liberty, and ought not to be kept up, except in Cases of necessity; and that at all times, the Military should be under strict Subordination to the civil Power.

"

Again, like I said-I think EVERYONE should have a CCW. Should be able, trained, and LICESNED to have it. But if you require more than one hand gun to defend yourself, you have other, varied problems.

You are what is wrong with society. Blaming video games and guns for what happen. I hope you are never a parent because from what I can tell, taking responsibilty isn't your thing. You need to take educate your self before you make ignorant assumptions.

At no point in time did I "blame" video games. But, you cant with a straight face argue that doing anything with repetition makes you more comfortable to that action or situation. 1000's of tests from lab rats to humans in varying circumstanced prove this. No, you are not the issue, or the other millions of people that play COD or similar games with ultra-realistic 1st person human death, but the fact that people think that someone who has been virtually killing for 10,15,20 years would not be more verse or numb to actually killing someone shows how warped our society is. If you have a kid that has mental issues-then don’t let him play these games, period. I think at the end of the day, mom screwed up here. As usual, it all starts at home, but you can’t argue about known, tested, and proven facts about human behavior.

Thanks for saying the government that you entrust to protect you should violate the Constitution. And you might want to stick to making cars go fast, that you are very good at. Everything above is garbage. It's not the people with background check and legal guns doing this shit!!! So you're for limiting the person who has been back ground checked to only having one hand gun. Because that's what YOU think is enough for the 2 seconds of thought you put into this. Can you even tell the differance between the action and function of what you think is an assult rifle? It's a good thing you are leaving it to your armed forces to protect you. You need that protection. Your way of thinking is toxic and will get people hurt.

http://www.nydailynews.com/news/national/ct-school-shooter-made-combat-weapon-article-1.1220431

No-Your not reading. I agree with a CCW-train everyone, let them legally bear arms. That is fine. I don’t think that anyone should have, or need, anything more than that unless you are a licensed hunter. And in that case-keep it a single shot weapon.

http://www.nydailynews.com/news/national/ct-school-shooter-made-combat-weapon-article-1.1220431

Really? Let me fix that for you. A mentally handicapped person with money can walk into a gun store and will be denied from buying a gun. What's your point? For starters, you shouldn't be calling mentally challenged people retards. You really could use some sensitivity training.

Sensitivity training? Its CR you faggot. The kid was one screw short of as FULL FUCKING RETARD. Leave your sandy gun loving Vagina at home.

I

I am all for NHRA licensing, the whole 9 yards - ONE dedicated TRACK purposed car is fine - there is ABSOLUTELY no need for civilians to have 10 second cars,period. People should not be allowed to have anything more than one caged slicked car for track purposes ONLY. Thats it. If you have an NHRA license, then you can have a race car- other wise there is simply no f'in need. Don't give me that freedom crap. We have other countries that are allowed to race if you want to watch them. If you don't like it then LEAVE. Go hide in Mexico and make youtube videos.

:gabe:

I get it-it’s a hobby for some. And for most its safe- and controlled, but then 85% of ALL homicides for kids aged 15-19 are gun related!! That should be pretty alarming to hear. http://articles.courant.com/2012-12-17/news/hc-op-oneill-sandy-hook-gun-violence-public-health-20121217_1_gun-violence-mental-health-firearms . Again, I blame the mother, she is the root of this kid getting out of hand-but a small percentage of me does blame society and our new found comfort level with weaponization of civilians an paranoia of needed self defense. It’s a problem that has solutions no one want to hear or deal with.

What was his name?

clean 04 WRX would be the offer.

Makes me wish I did not sell the 350 motor/trans drop out I had.

Do you/he have the rear interior? Pass seat?

Interested in any trades?

I don't think I have ever got on a soap box here-but how warped are people? YES, if you grow up playing VIOLENT video games there you do NOTHING but shoot other humans in a realistic environment, with the most realistic graphics designers can build-you will become more numb to it than someone who has no played the same games for years, and years, and years. This is no different than F1 drivers playing VIDEO GAMES to get ready for a race!

If you do research and see the whole story-yes the shooter was a disturbed kid. He was not the norm BUT-he also had no money, no income. He had no means to buy a gun. If his MOTHER did not have weapons, including ASSAULT RIFLES- this would not have happened-PERIOD. A retard with no money is not going to walk into a store and buy a gun now is he? Face the facts people.

CCW is fine, I am all for it-training, schooling-background checks, the whole 9 yards- ONE hand gun for home defense purposes is fine-there is ABSOLUTELY no need for civilians to have assault rifles, period. People should not be allowed to have anything more than a one short non-automatic riffle for hunting purposes ONLY. Thats it. If you have a hunting license, then you can have a hunting gun-other wise there is simply no f'ing need. Dont give me that right to bear arms crap-its not 1700. We have an army, and a National guard to protect us from foreign invaders. If you dont trust the US Government to protect you in the case of a foreign invasion-then LEAVE. Go hide in Canada and wait for the "zombie Apocalypse."
