WRX takes on LS1 dragstrip story.

[cjchaps]

Funny stuff!

LInk here.

 

[Rallispec]

hahaha.. wrx's rock...

this is almost as funny has the story that was posted yesterday about the corvette owner who got smoked by the Civic Si

 

[Lucky]

props to both drivers, the LS1 for not making excuses and being good about it and the WRX driver for keeping it real and knowing his sh*t.

"Hey Ma, we needs to gets us one of them Vtec things in our car. Some rube told me he had a turbo in his car, whatever the heck that is."

The incompetence of particular fanboys sometimes is hilarious.

 

[Angrymarshmello]

In this case the faster car won - not like the C5/Civic story. And the LS1 driver is a chick :Q

Candace

13.620 @ 102.12
Stock (not for long)


Well, here's your problem:

1. Candace - woman can't drive.
2. 13.6 on a stock LS1? Please, give me that car and I'll get into 12's.

<---- flame suit on

<< I don't know much of anything about RICER VEHICLES >>




<< He proceeds to tell me no, turbo, and something about taking out the turbo and putting a bigger one in there or something along those lines >>



That was driving an LS1? I'll tend to agree with you.

 

[Angrymarshmello]

fastz28 - it's probably an auto though (chick driver)

 

[Rent]

It is an auto - see her sig says A4 3.23 (automatic 4 speed, 3.23 rear end)

I'm willing to bet that she could have hit a low 13 with it. If she'd get a stall converter, race fuel, and some drag radials she'd be in the 12's easy.

 

[LAUST]

Auto's are faster at drag racing if you have the torque to power the Torque Converter.

Yank has made many LS1 powered cars drop .5 just by dropping in a 2400 stall alone

Edit: also if the WRX is beating a 13.6 it doesn't sound stock at all, Modified vehicles are the fastest in the world. modify that LS1, toss about 6 K it's way, it'll drop 2 seconds pretty easy.

^^ yup ^^

 

[notfred]

I know a guy who dropped 7/10's from a torque converter in his 2001 trans am. The car runs 12.25 now....

I'll get flammed for this but fuggit.

It appears to me that one's ego is directly proportional to the displacement of one's engine, while IQ is inversely proportional.

Of course, the vtec wanks have their dim bulbs...but most of them are only 15 years old so I give them the benefit of doubt

So where do the Wankel fans fit in?

hahahaha... you might want to elaborate, most people won't know what that is.

Local Rotary Club?

 

[Squisher]

She wasn't sure but she thought the guy said he had put in larger turbos.

 

[cjchaps]

The WRX is modified by the way. He's got a bigger turbo, and aftermarket exhaust so it can breath better. He also put in an aftermarket ECU, and had it tuned.
In my WRX I couldn't touch and LS1 in dry conditions... Stock I did about 14.5 in the 1/4, and with a $30 dollar boost mod, I ran 13.9's. If it's raining or snowing or if we are racing in mud or gravel, I'll take the LS1 anyday

A Wankel is a female Wanker, right?

 

[EvilYoda]

I dunno....I guess I give props to the woman, for owning up to whuppin, but seriously, if you're gonna go out to a track, and you don't even know what a f*cking WRX is, what hole are you living in? And then to go and brag and moan about not knowing.....so what DOES she know about, just the regular bread & butter mustang/vette/camaro/firebird?

<---Lives adjacent to an apartment building where one of the tenants has a black WRX.....drools every time. I love em. Not saying I wouldn't mind an LS1, mind you.

These car threads get a little........old, in this forum, for some reason. Maybe the programming's getting to me.

 

[Triumph]

Most of that thread is full of uninformed, stuck up retards who can't respect ANYTHING besides an F-body/Corvette:


<< Most of those crappy sue's run awd >>




<< if it was a wrx then it was twin turbo. and it was a 6. >>



How can these people consider themselves car buffs and not know what a WRX is? That thing has made a huge splash in the car scene in the last year.

A piston engine goes boing boing boing but a Mazda goes hmmmmmm.


Indicate the correct year of this ad and win nothing but the useless trivia crown.

 

[Fritzo]

I have a WRX! I got a black with the manual tranny....it's FAAAAAASSSSTTTTT, I put a cheap mod on it so the turbo will engage around 2000rpm instead of around 3500. I can engage it buy pressing a light up red button I mounted underneath the dash that I labeled "Turbo Boost" (I was a big Knight Rider fan way back when ). After I added the 17" tires, I was hitting 60mph a hair above 5.6 seconds. Never did a 1/4 mile in it, but DAMN! It's the best $25000 I ever spent!

Unfortuantely, the Suburu crowd is known to contract a rare mindset - The Suburu Gay Complex. In this state of mind, they do not care about anything that has meaning, they only go on about how badass their car is and how they can take anyone off the line. This only affects a portion of them, but its sad to see (I used to work with a poor individual who bought a '00 2.5RS and refused to believe that it could be beat by other small imports like Sentra SE-Rs, ect...)

So Vi_edit, we must have the same IQ since your VR6 is just about the same displacement as my Beretta

 

[Nefrodite]

i dunno, normal wrx's look kinda lame which apparnetly can be fixed
