the engine comment was BS too, the engine in the 350Z heavily modded with a hot turbo setup can give any hot 20B 3-rotor engine a run for it's money, they pull some pretty amazing numbers out of those things

 

A1A - take the sand out your v*gina... cuz your coming off as a little b*tch. You can always come up with 900 reasons why your amazing yet keep loosing, so no point in really talking about it with you.

i would like to point out though... that your always the one taking jabs at the other local owners saying you lost but it was because they had blah blah blah. This coming completely unprovoked beacuse i dont think we ever before talked about who won. Before you came around it was always friendly and no matter who won, we all encouraged each other to drive better/faster.

----------------------------------

My whole point in the earlier post is your talking a whole lot of smack about Zs... but there are many Zs that will smoke many 8s. Like the Z owner above me proved, its not that far behind the 8 in autocross. The Z is also superior to the 8 (stock to stock) in drag. As far as track... thats highly debateable.

So getting back to exactly what you said. How do you justify the statement below?

In summary...
I own an 8, i love my 8, my 8 is faster than your 8, your a loser, but most importantly... i respect the Z. Its a good car.

You know what guys, he does have a point.

Last summer I went to the track. and there were a couple of RX8s and at least 8 honda, civics, preludes. etc. most of them were from 88 to 97 etc. But What I found amazing was that the civic, was the best on the track! It was very hard to believe.

Of course the civics were "modified" None of them had a turbo, but all of them had engine swaps.

so here was a $5000 car on the track and a $40.000 RX8 couldnt keep up! yes, the rx8 is $40k here in Canada!

 

Haha if anyone has sand in your vagina it's probably you...i'll let that one sink in for a bit.

Or maybe if you don't get it go drop another 15 grand into your 8 and lose some more. It's pretty damn funny that you claim you're in SM when you wouldn't even be competetive in B stock. I've never even raced any other non SCCA local RX8 owners besides yourself and the guy with the red one maybe once or twice and I think you got me by what less than a 10th? There are plenty of SCCA Bstock/STU RX8 owners that are faster than me but you're definetely not one of them.

So yes, your RX8 is probably faster than mine in a straight line only because you like to spend money on mods and not learning how to drive the car. Feel free to come out to some events next season I'd love to see what you can do with your extra 100 whp, fancy suspension and various other goodies. Don't run into a palm tree on those beautiful hawaii roads.

P.S. the results speak for themself. 8 of the top 10 B stock national winners were in RX8's. There was only 1 350Z campaigned by a veteran nationals driver and 1 MR2 turbo. I believe the word is DOMINATE.

Any engine with a heavy modded turbo setup can give a hot 20B 3 rotor engine a run for it's money. That's kind of a general statement. I've seen 500 whp SR20DET's on the factory bottom end and 800+ whp street driven turbo M3's.

As far as the SCCA nationals thing, the 2nd place driver is incredible but don't you think that if the 350Z was the car to have in Bstock there wouldn't be 8 RX8's in front and behind it in the top 10?

 

Once again you did a great job of acting like an idiot and avoiding my direct question. I'll post it again for you, since you seem to enjoy bringing up me and my car instead of backing up what you said, so lets try again...

So getting back to exactly what you said. How do you justify the statement below?

EDIT: I just deleted all of what i wrote here, since it doesnt have to do with anyone but you.
If you want to continue talking crap in person, instead of hiding behind your keyboard, i'll be back in Dallas from Dec 25th to Jan 2nd. Let me know what you have to say then.

Lets see, I already showed you that it's not the car to have for autocross in it's class. For 35 grand a low 14 @ 100 mph isn't fast when there are plenty of drag cars out there that can go mid 11's for 1/2 the cost (Foxbody mustang, LS1 Fbody etc etc.) And no one really races it in any competitive road racing series that I know of in America so that pretty much sums it up.

You're more than welcome to stop on by Dallas when the season starts back up, I'm sure you can find a co-drive. Ironically I will be chilling on a beach during the Christmas break but feel free to continue resorting to threats of violence since you can't back it up with your driving skill.

 

Who would have thought that such an idiotic thread as (A modified civic beating a lotus that is not even trying. In an utterly pointless drag race.) would have produced so much intelligent discussion.

 

Your whole reasoning that the Z is such an inferior autocross car to the 8, but did well in nationals because the driver was such a professional, infers that the 8 while being far superior of a car, is driven at nationals by far inferior drivers. I dont think that will bode well with the people here who race nationally, who you are telling are only winning because they are in such a dominating car.

The Z while not being a drag monster is faster than an RX8 in teh straight line. That is a fact, but If your logic revolves around there are cars far less expesnive that can outperform the Z in teh drag... guess what. There are cars less expensive that can outperform the RX8 in autocross as well.

I've seen stock Zs road race against stock 8s... neither car was undisputably superior.

In regards to you asking me to race you to "back up my skill" im sending you a PM because this once again... is only between me and you. And i dont need to drag the whole board into it.

-hS

 

I really can't believe you got into any sort of masters program with your horrible reasoning skills. Just because a good driver placed well at nationals in a car that is less competitive does not mean that the drivers of the other 8 cars that placed in the top 10 are bad drivers. You won't place AT ALL in a national competition if you can't drive well, period. If the 350Z was the fast car to have in it's class don't you think there would be 8 of them and only a few RX8's?

I really can't think of any comparable far less expensive cars in the RX8's class that can outperform it in an autocross. You can get a brand new 07 sport RX8 with performance package for around 20 flat, I'd be interested to hear what stock car for far less than 20 grand in Bstock would beat it.

Lastly, only a punk would go out of their way to send someone a threatening pm. This is car forum, no one cares about beating anyone up, if you can't hold your own in a car and want to fight go to a bar and talk some smack to some big dude cause I don't care. Keep telling me you're going to "rip my head off" if you see me around it just makes you look a bigger *** than you really are. Or you could try spending some more time driving your car instead of threatening to hurt people since you're such a car "enthusiast". I'm going to go ahead and forward your PM to a mod as well.

 

Yes a private message, which was sent to you privately on purpose. If i wanted to make it public i would of posted it here.

I've never had any issues with anyone when autocrossing for the few years i've been doing it. Everyone has been super friendly and very supportive, but you are by far a different person. Ever since you started posting here, you just keep taking stabs at other drivers for whatever reason. Anyway, what i say to you in PM is meant just for you. If you don't like it, dont talk sh*t and make personal comments about me, my car, or my education. Keep hiding behind your PC... i dont have time to deal with your BS anymore.

please make this thread die so that the baby jeezus can stop weeping ...

 

sorry for having this thread go so far off topic. i put cosmosmpower on my ignore list, to refrain from getting sucked into his BS again.

so in other news... wow that civic - still not fast. HA!
