  1. I think most people with extremely fast rides, do not need to get online, and e thump their chests. Maybe I am wrong.

     

    Sure.

     

    But this creature is supposedly not on this site some how. A CAR RACING site dedicated to people who live in Columbus, but this guy, the fastest guy, was never invited, or does not what to come on right?

     

    Lets say hypothetically, that this guy, the King of the Streets, really is not on the site. I would assume one of you all, the people of the local scene, should still know this mythical beast right? I just want someone to step up, point a finger, and say THIS is it.

     

    Fuck post a pic or something, it is 2005, and EVERYTHING is on the net. This 7sec 180+mph street sweeper must be somewhere....

     

    As far as I am concerned, from what I have scene, heard, and researched, Tilly, Tinman, and Sam are at the top of the Totem poll down on C-bus's highways. Pikey was formidable when his heap ran, and that’s it.

     

    Until someone has some story with witnesses or video, in the words of the great Dr.Z06 himself..

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Prove me wrong.

  2. That will make your car fast no doubt, but it's definitly not enough to be King of Columbus by a long shot.

     

     

    Its a funny thing though, who is this proclaimed king? There is no one that has been Identified here. Mind you to keep it on topic, we are speaking on a street car, who will be somewhat proficient from a Dig, Roll, and is at least mildly comfortable to drive.

     

    It seems there is this mythical car that hides somewhere, than can beat ANYTHING, Supra, GT4788 V8, Tilley with 3 turbos, the fucking Saturn V....... But no one quite knows who he is. He is there though right?

     

    The GT4788 with put 1300-1400WHP on whatever it is strapped to as long as it can hold the power. If that is not going to come close to be the "king", not by a long shot, PLEASE, tell the king congrats on having the fastest street car in the Fucking World, since I can not tell him because he is..

     

    Not on this Board

     

    Does not Own a computer

     

    But is out there, Somewhere. :lol:

  3. Everyone is jealous we don't make enough to have trust worthy professionals attend to our greed.

     

     

    I dont agree.

     

    Even when I am out of College, and making good money, I will still do my own work. Im not saying I wont respect the CAR if it is built exclusively by a shop, but the owner may loose some brownie points. This does not matter, because the owners of such cars dont usually care about being with the "in" grease monkey crowd, who things going to a buddy’s house to s a tranny swap, motor install, or sometimes the emergency full build is cool. These folks usually have the car build as a status symbol, a penis extension if you will.

     

    Racing is a hobby. Even when its your profession, you can only outsource so much. To me, it would be like hiring someone to build a train set for your house. (If you were into model trains). It takes out 98% of the enjoyment of the hobby.

     

    The difference between Enthusiast and, hell I dont know make up a word for a person that pays to have there car modded, from head to toe.

  4. What's up with that lame ass clip?

     

    "Hey, guys, wanna see what 1200hp looks like? Well, look here - here's me starting it up, and then here's me backing up a little and then pulling forward and adjusting the rearview, and then here's me cruising on the driveway, and then here's me peeling out - BUT JUST A LITLLE BIT BECAUSE IT'S CRAZY FAST - and then here's me pulling into the garage."

     

    No offense to you, Nick.

     

     

     

    Beat me too it. Nice car, but...

     

    That jaunt up the driveway is all the action that bilng machine will ever see.

     

    I love show cars as much as I love bukakki.

  5. ....one of these things is not like the other

    Scene--Seen

     

     

    Bwaahahah!!!!

     

    I knew it! Man this is like shooting fish in a barrel. You just earned me 20$. I suppose a thank you is in order. :lol:

     

    You are a sad bunch.

     

    i luv teh innterweb!

  6. Okay, so it's just MUCH more difficult to build a car to run 10s or better consistently than it is to make enough money to buy the car you want, drop it off at a shop, and basically name the power/performance that you want?

     

    Is that what you're saying? Just trying to understand here.

     

     

    Exactly.

     

     

    No just consistently, as in 10..9, 10.7, 10.99, 10.3.....

     

     

    But accurate enough to win big bracket race events. A dead nuts 10 sec car will be more expensive and difficult to drive, build. and maintain then a Daily Driven 10 sec car. (assuming the same platform)

  7. Wait a minute. So, you're saying it's easy to make enough money to buy the car you want and then have enough money available to take it to a shop, name the power you desire, and pay to have it done? That's easy? Pray tell me how that's easy, beyond winning the lottery or inheriting the money.

     

     

    Nope, I said

    Bracket racing anything slower than a 13 sec car is ghey, I will give you that.

     

    BUT, bracket racing itself is not ghey. To build a fast car (10s or better), and to have it dead on consistent enough to win events, is MUCH more difficult that dropping off your ________(insert American Sports car here) at your local shop, like __ __ __ (insert your favorite acronym here) and pelting it with your credit car until it blings out of control and makes the power you desire.

     

    I am not a bracket racer, but I am realistic. It is harder to build a Great 10 sec bracket race car than a 9 sec _______. Furthermore, if you are not a good driver, your bracket racing ability is hindered more, while in a heads up race, your can bog the launch or fall asleep at the light, and if you have the power, it will not matter in the end anyway.

  8. Well I guess is my reason for not liking bracket racing. I did it and was paired up to a chevette. Guy dialed in a 18.1 time. I dialed in a 12.5 (old car). He was I swear at least 65-70% down the track before I even got to take off. He beat me by a small margin. He ended up runnin a 18.2 to my 12.8 something. :bs:

  9. Nope, I have litre bike and a licence..... No need for my car to run fast.

     

     

    You do realize no vehicle you own is faster than my econobox right?

     

    I just find that a bit humorous for all the shit that flies from your pie hole.

  10. It was a combination of cheats and dumb luck. I had the game shark code for multiple horsepower set to its highest level, something like 10 or 30 times your actual horsepower but even that doesnt get you going that fast. While messing around one day I set my rear downforce to its highest position and the front to the lowest, and the damndest thing happened, after you pick up some speed the front wheels actually come off the ground and your speed shoots through the roof. Pretty cool comming across the finish line at 2000mph with sparks flying off the tail of your car and the nose pointed to the sky.

     

    I did this with no cheats in GT3 (the wheels up at 300mph gig) but for some reason it then flew trough the wall, and into the distance. I stayed in it for 20 seconds, and landed at what had to be a go cart track. 15 mph was too much for any turn.

     

    Anyone ever done this?
