WTF........in one ear and out the other around here. I'm not trying to get people to like Cavaliers and i don't care if they do.lol No reason in trying to talk to V8 guys.....your all the same. Maybe if you have ever owned/modded a sport compact b4 you got a V8 you would know where i'm coming from. Don't see any sport compact guys in here do you? Its always a group of conceded V8 guys.
"you should have so much anger at people that have faster cars than you"
There is always someone faster, i can except that can you?
I'm also wondering why i'm being reffered as a ricer for? For speaking whats on my mind? So sorry for doing that!
There is no reasoning with people like you so i'm gonna be the bigger man and end it right here. You guys can say all you want after this post if it makes you feel like a big tough guy. You guys are too cool.

I'm a sport compact guy.
The Miata is essentially stock, and that's how it shall stay.
Yeah, I guess I *could* spend $2K on HCI (okay, I'll be an importer and go with IHE)...that should get me close to 150 bhp and high 15s. Maybe I'll spend $3,800 for a supercharger kit. 150 rwhp and low 15s. Another $700 boost upgrade and I might just crack fourteens. Or, I could spend $5,000 on a turbo kit and see 200 hp and be knocking on the thirteen second club's door. I'd love to add a $800 nitrous kit to the turbo package, but the Miata's rods wouldn't take it and it's a $500 investment for a new set.
Or, I can spend (conservatively) $2K on a Fox Mustang and $1,000 in gears, nitrous, and tires and beat the shit out of the turbo'd, nitrous-inhaling Miata.
My point?
You seem to like drag racing. There just aren't many sport compacts that make good drag cars.
It's fine to want to modify your car. But if drag racing is your thing, why not pick something that's good at it? It's a lot more fun to run even a 12 second car down the strip than a 16 second 'box.

either the people who owned those corvettes are stupid or you have enough rice on your car (body kit, stickers, and so on) that it inspired them to race you. i see some average "sport compact" on the street, i don't give them the time of day. i see one with the autozone wing, the fart can, and all the stickers...well it's obvious that the owner thinks they have some kind of race car. so i'd make 'em prove it. and when you're the loser of that race, then your true nature is exposed, since "loser" is only one letter away from "poser."

you know, for someone who has so much other shit going on in their life, you sure are online a lot. shouldnt you be out working or something? instead of online *****ing to us about how hard you have it. im sure racing your shitbox isnt the best idea either, since you obviously cant support what you have, a mechanics bill wouldnt help.

Now you are acting like Michael Jordan. You keep saying you are going to quit comin' back, but every time I open my eyes, you are back again. You really should stop clicking on this thread, it will get you nowhere. And I've never owned a v8, but I do know that n/a 4-bangers are slow.

I think you could take the guy with the malibu if you have a passenger that says "smoke 'em" right befre you take off. Acually in reality you should spank him because malibu's aren't fast the z24 caviliers aren't bad cars for what they are.

I think that the point of most people is that they are not interested in this race. You did your own assessment of the race, and you're probably right. The only way to find out is to race.
I think people should chill out on shit talking to a 17 yr old. Maybe he is posting a boring post, but at least he is posting. The kill story section is usually much less than what I would want to see.
out. ...

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing reading the replies. The new Cavs are quick, for a little I4. I have stomped LOTS of Civics and Accords with my car, but the one race against a new Cav put me behind by 2 car lengths. My car is by no means fast, but that shocked me. And, YES, it was stock, unlike the Civics and Accords I KILLED! As far as the "Muscle Car" people, yeah, they have a reason to laugh. They are killers in the 1/4 mi arena!!! But put one in a road race, and my "slow" car will hand them their ASS! Done it before, and will continue doing it!

you bring this thread back from the dead for this crap? enough already, just because there are slower cars out there does not mean a car does not suck. wow, this slow can beat that slow car....wtf. usually this section is for actual races, or the fantasies of pre-adult ricers. not for hypothetical(sp) discussions about slow cars. race and post, don't wonder and for christ's sake don't lie. everything will be cool if we all remember that.
lastly why is it that everybody with a fwd econo-car thinks these things handles great. go to any track,autocross or dragstrip and you will see that most of the time the fastest cars all have good lots of h/p and rear wheel drive........there is a reason why f-1,nascar,irl,top fuel...etc. all have lots of h/p and rear wheel drive. it is because they want to go fast, and they are a lot smarter than the fool trying to race mom's fwd grocery getter.
