Since you didn't seem to know that he now has a GTO, you probably don't know why he wrecked his convertible Mustang. What happened was that he went to the shop and had them do some body work to make it look like a Mercedes, then he put some custom paint on it - only problem was that when he went out into the sunlight, it blinded him, and he crashed. Here is a pic of the car right before he totaled it.

The only thing that you run is to the bathroom....

[Evil Goat]

let me help you out....

1. the integra did "win"
2. the integra didn't miss a gear
3. we were not racing, this was at import showdown during a test and tune session between elim rounds and was the first time the car came out on a 200 shot and I was focusing on not blowing out an axle that cost as much as your car
4. i don't own the car anymore, lol

[thundercatz1]

[thundercatz1]

Yeah whatever you say sir

[h22 jones]

The next time you play a joke dont post a old ass picture with the zex kit hooked up but i wasnt going to call you out lmao.

If you bring up houston or chris around macon everybody says is that that idiot that thought his v6 mustange was so fast lmao.

Hell you cant even beat my the na hatch lol more or less some of these turbo cars around macon . To be fair alot of of the turbo cars cant beat the na hatch either maybe that will make you feel better lol . We are still running the same old motor and you have had four cars.

Im just glad you finaly took some advice and bought a fast car the only problem now is you have some big shoes to feel if that car doesnt run a 12 second all motor pass we are all going to give you strait hell . On the up side if you run faster then a 12.5 josh will never live it down (all motor) . I dont think you have anything to worry about josh lol.

[Evil Goat]

Lol I haven't thought about it that way

[thundercatz1]

1st off I'm no idiot and second I will do Mr. Evil Goat proud when I run this car at the track.

[japan4racing]

if that car doesnt run a 12 second all motor pass we are all going to give you strait hell .

No shit....my raggedy Ford can do it so this car better damn sure do it with you behind the wheel Mr. Houston!!

[DarKStaR]

Mike thats not an old picture lol, That was a box jimmy had laying around we just threw up there. The picture was taken tuesday. When i had mine on there back in the day i had it hidden

[David88vert]

1st off I'm no idiot and second I will do Mr. Evil Goat proud when I run this car at the track.

You could be the smartest guy in the world, but that won't help you get your car into the 12's. Trust me - I know from experience. :(

50% of racing is mental, but the other 50% is driving - and that's the important 50%.....

If you were really smart, you would have gone after my known weaknesses - you would have wanted to run at Commerce, not SDR, since you know that I have never gotten a good launch there, you should have wanted it to be 1/8 mile, as we already know that you should normally get a better 60', and you should have chosen street tires, to limit my traction and hurt my 60' as much as possible. You missed on all three key items (SDR, slicks, 1/4 distance) and helped improve my chances. So, I guess that I should say thanks for the added help when I take my cash from you! Don't worry - I will put it to a good cause - more car parts.
I know what power and weight you have, and I also know that the 60' will be the most important part of the race. You've already seen how badly I do in the 60'.

Evil Goat probably doesn't want you to run faster than him on the same setup. :D Probably would like for you to run about 2/10s slower - just good enough. Of course, you would probably be happy with that also. Personally, I think that if you get within a 1/2 second of his times on the same setups, you should be happy. If you do get to that point, I will be happy for you. I would like to see you get low 12's on just motor on hard radial street tires. I'm seen others do it, so it is possible.

[DA9_Vito]

let me help you out....

1. the integra did "win"
2. the integra didn't miss a gear
3. we were not racing, this was at import showdown during a test and tune session between elim rounds and was the first time the car came out on a 200 shot and I was focusing on not blowing out an axle that cost as much as your car
4. i don't own the car anymore, lol

so running a slower time makes you win. damn didnt know that.
sure sounded like a missed gear.
oh no ur axle cost more ooo bad. like i give a damn. my car will last longer.
i know you dont own it anymore. your rollin in a IS300. and yes im hatin because thats the car i want next lol.

[DA9_Vito]

I thought yall were out rain or shine, ive been out 3 different times in the past 2 months and havnt seen yall

Ive been out of town and chris has been stuck up his GF's va-jay-jay lol. but we should all be out this saturday for sure. i was finally able to get my hood and trunk painted back white the other day.

[Evil Goat]

so running a slower time makes you win. damn didnt know that.

lulz...watch the lights at the end of the track, yes you can run a slower time and still win, it's who gets from point a to point b first, not the fastest

[DA9_Vito]

lulz...watch the lights at the end of the track, yes you can run a slower time and still win, it's who gets from point a to point b first, not the fastest

oh ok i see what ya mean now. i always thought if you had the slowest time you lost.

well I'm feeling relaxed goin outside to practice my other launching now

[DA9_Vito]

^ that wont help lol.

[gforce71]

Lol, David I was thinking the same thing about the race. SDR actually hooks, unlike Commerce. He thinks he knows his hustle, then gives you every chance to win.

[DarKStaR]

If he went low 12s on motor with hard radial that would make him a better driver than josh since josh did it on slick...

[DarKStaR]

Buuuuttttt that wont happen lol

[japan4racing]

If he went low 12s on motor with hard radial that would make him a better driver than josh since josh did it on slick...

no shit! low 12's wont happen without sticky tires...high 12's are possible on aquatreads though

[h22 jones]

I just said what word on the street was lol (idiot). Im just messing with you lol i realy hope that gto runs good for you hell josh cant complain anytime you can spray the piss out of one and sell it all in one piece is a good day lol.

[David88vert]

chouston should at least go buy the wheels/tires and the CAI for the car. Wouldn't hurt for him to go ahead and buy the Kirkey seat for use at the track also, if Evil Goat still has it. chouston is going to need some weight reduction.

[Evil Goat]

I have everything but the nitrous and cai...even have a 5pt harness to go with the kirkey!

[David88vert]

^^^ There you go, chouston. Go and get it. You can explain to your girl that the seat and harness is a safety device, so that you can be certain to come home to her in one piece....

[thundercatz1]

I was already going to do weight reduction. I took that big bar out in the trunk that protects the gas tank. I am goin to take the rear and front passenger seats out. Goin to get cai in a few days also, plan on run street tires for the first time to test my skills.

[Echonova]

i would leave that bar in....it's only 4 bolts you can remove at the track if you want

word of advice on the cai....if you're getting it from summit at least....

http://www.summitracing.com/parts/TFS-23069/ $219
http://www.summitracing.com/parts/KNN-57-3044/ $294

not everyone knows that trick flow specialties owns K&N (or vice versa)....buy the TFS cai, it's the exact same thing from K&N, in fact when I bought mine my tube had the K&N decal on it and came with a K&N filter....and I saved about $70....even if the tube doesn't have K&N it's definitely made in the same plant from the same mold and it will come with a K&N filter...it'll just all come in a TFS box like they made it

I just want to point out though that the stocker is not a bad unit, it has a barely used K&N drop in it if the dealer left it alone and I made over 500 to the wheels with the stocker and K&N drop in ;)

[thundercatz1]

Yea it still has the k &n drop in. It looks brand new and that's good to know about the CAI, save a lil money

chouston,
x2 on leaving the bar in - be safe, I'd rather you not race if you aren't going to be safe.

Now that Evil Goat has informed us, save your money on the CAI - you will just be giving it to me anyway.

You are going to take out your seats? Gut your DD into a race car? WOW, that is pretty desperate. I'm planning to leave my seats in, and my subwoofer. I might even have my A/C on while I walk away from you.
Is your car that weak that you can't even carry a passenger? WOW.

[thundercatz1]

Your useless attempt at reverse pyschology at me not wanting to take some weight out of the car is ridiculous lol.....

[David88vert]

No, please take it out - that way you will look even more ridiculous when your gutted out and built race car gets drug down the track in front of everyone by a full weight, full interior, mostly stock, almost 20 year old Mustang.....
EVERYONE is going to be laughing about it! :taun:

If for some crazy reason you actually did win, everyone will say that of course you should, as you brought a gutted racecar to run against an old stock Mustang..... you will never get any respect from anyone..... you've already lost the race, regardless of the outcome. Now all that is left is for you to lose your money to me....

[Evil Goat]

lol....people still throwing around the world "built" with the GTO....my favorite part of owning that car was when people found out how little was actually done

[David88vert]

lol....people still throwing around the world "built" with the GTO....my favorite part of owning that car was when people found out how little was actually done

Shhh... let the people buy into it.

[Evil Goat]

i mean....that bitch is BUILT....with a capital B U I L T, lol

[David88vert]

I have everything but the nitrous and cai...even have a 5pt harness to go with the kirkey!

Evil Goat - Please tell me that chouston already bought the nitrous kit from you. I'm hoping that he puts the car back to the state that you had it in.

I have a question about your old car - is the GTO caged? If not, how did you brace the Kirkey in there? Also, how many punds did the seats weigh in the car? Did you see an improvement in your ET from removing it? The reason that I am asking is that I tried it on another car of mine, and couldn't see an improvement at all in my times (maybe a tenth at most). Now, on one of my road race cars, every pound counted, as the lateral force on the tires was very important.


chouston - DO NOT let the wheels and tires get sold out from under you. Go get them now - and anything else he has that you can come up with the money for. You can thank me later for pushing you on this.

[thundercatz1]

Don't worry my friend everything is coming together......

[David88vert]

Don't worry my friend everything is coming together......

Have you read this? You might get some weight reduction ideas from it.
http://www.ls1tech.com/forums/pontiac-gto-2004-2006/860633-reducing-wieght-gto-2.html


A reason that I mention the wheels and tires is because another friend of mine is interested in them also - and has a lot of the money saved up already. If you don't get them, then I will have to change my setup, so that our race can remain fair. I don't have time to do multiple setups with different tires. SO GO GET THOSE WHEELS AND TIRES NOW!

[thundercatz1]

Yea man I live on ls1 tech just learning shit just like I did with my mustang. That's a good write up. I'm not gutting my car to the extreme. Just bolton crap that's easy to remove hence just the seats.

[thundercatz1]

Good looking out Vert

[Echonova]

Hmmmm... (copied from that link)


Heres a good start...

Back seats (both pieces): 45 lbs.

Front Passenger seat (with bracket): 65 lbs.

You would be dumb NOT to take those out.

[David88vert]

chouston, in case you haven't realized yet - I NEED you to get those wheels and tires. I just went out and traded my Draglights for a set of Weld Pro-Stars that look just like Evil Goat's wheels. Then I went and bought a userd set of MT 26x10s - just like what he has on those. I am about to go get the front runners also. I want to make certain that you have no excuses as to why you lost. If you are running on street tires, then I would have wasted that money, plus the time of working with them. Go get those wheels and tires!

[Evil Goat]

Evil Goat - Please tell me that chouston already bought the nitrous kit from you. I'm hoping that he puts the car back to the state that you had it in.

I have a question about your old car - is the GTO caged? If not, how did you brace the Kirkey in there? Also, how many punds did the seats weigh in the car? Did you see an improvement in your ET from removing it? The reason that I am asking is that I tried it on another car of mine, and couldn't see an improvement at all in my times (maybe a tenth at most). Now, on one of my road race cars, every pound counted, as the lateral force on the tires was very important.


chouston - DO NOT let the wheels and tires get sold out from under you. Go get them now - and anything else he has that you can come up with the money for. You can thank me later for pushing you on this.

A cage was the next thing on the list...i bought the seat on the way home from vacation at summit since I was passing by, got the harness from Jimmy, and we were going to do a cage over the winter...so the seat was never installed, nor was the harness.

the nitrous kit was sold a local 240sx owner and the cai was sold to some guy in NY

and I'm just sayin.....I spent $1158 unmounted on the wheels....first $650 gets 'em :)

p.s. http://www.ls1gto.com <--------------everything you need to know....all of the 9 second guys post regularly in the drag racing forum, Jan with the black auto GTO running 9's, built by Vengeance, is a regular poster there as well

and yes removing the seats alone couuld save a tenth...i went 11.5's on full interior, i removed the gas tank brace, the skid plate, pass seat, and rear seat and went 11.3's

[DarKStaR]

fatass...

[thundercatz1]

show some respect or I will show your ninja shifting!!!!!

[DarKStaR]

oooo im so scared......Its only been posted 11tybillion times by josh since thats the only comeback he can make ;)

[thundercatz1]

Lol

[Evil Goat]

oooo im so scared......Its only been posted 11tybillion times by josh since thats the only comeback he can make ;)

let's be honest though....you didn't miss first and by the time I hit the 300' mark I was about 5 cars up already....Jesus himself could've been driving and I still would've pulled it out

[DarKStaR]

I was late on the tree because of the stupid 2 step, took forever with the old tune. But car runs alot better and faster now, to bad we didnt get our original race

[Evil Goat]

Excuses, excuses, and more excuses, lol

[DarKStaR]

hey no worries here, everybody makes mistakes....... example:you hit your cd player on your incar pass, you break a stage 5 axle without moving 2 feet, you about melted a plug one of those nights on the 200shot......the list goes on ;)

I just happen to miss a gear the ONLY incar video we took. Wait till i go back i will have 2352456 incar videos of me NOT missing a gear :)

[Z0_o6]

the nitrous kit was sold a local 240sx owner

and you should be ashamed of yourself for doing that. lulz

[thundercatz1]

lol....... Watching the autocross at henderson stadium lookin pretty good out here

Ok, thanks for that feedback. I knew the Kirkey mounts to the crossbar, and was trying to figure out how I could safely mount one in my foxbody at the track - I'm not putting a cage in the car. Thinking about making my own crossbar like some of the brace/harness bars that I have seen at RA for road cars.

So, with all that work, chouston might be able to claim 2 tenths back - that might be worth it then, especially since you have sold the nitrous kit, and I'm guessing that he is planning to try to take me down with all motor. I can't let that happen - I'd never hear the end of it.

[David88vert]

[David88vert]

Probably in Macon.

You got no invite because your car is so slow that it would be tomorrow before you could get there.....

[DarKStaR]

DAMN - I can't even see his taillights.....

Its cool, thats the ONLY time his gto ever beat my integra....hell the other 3 times my car was all motor lulz

They have an autocross like once a month at henderson stadium over off anthony rd.

[thundercatz1]

Probably in Macon.

You got no invite because your car is so slow that it would be tomorrow before you could get there.....

They do it every month there. I was going to enter but I figured I'd just watch and enter next month. The best out there to me was the plum mazda rx8. He was fuckin flyin!! There was alot of miatas, a mazdaspeed3, 240s, couple of evos, and a 07 mustang gt.

[Echonova]

[thundercatz1]

Lmao!!! I just wanted to see how I would do compared to the other ppl out there one time.... The mustang looked like fish out of water!!

[Echonova]

Lmao!!! I just wanted to see how I would do compared to the other ppl out there one time.... The mustang looked like fish out of water!!Don't get me wrong, I would rather you learn/hone your handling skills in that car on a course where the worst that happens is you run over a cone vs. on the street. As long as you have no delusions of grandeur that you're gonna be some AutoX legend in the GTO... Go for it brotha!!

But if I ever see a thread about you being some sort of an AutoX king, me and my Miata will pay you a visit. ;)

But w/e, I'm sure you were just poking fun at her and she took you serious.:ninja:

[thundercatz1]

Yea I wouldn't go that far as to say I'm a autox king, even I would have to check myself.... When I drove out there on the course everybody came up to me and said I know this car, it's fast as shit lol..... There was a rx7 with the corvette ls1 swap he said he paid 12K for that swap. I said that's how much I paid for my car lol

[DA9_Vito]

ima enter my shit next month and idc if i win or lose. it still sounds like fun.

[thundercatz1]

Man it was some guys out there that know there shit when it comes to autox especially that plum rx8 he was gettin it.

[DA9_Vito]

and idk where that stadium is.

[DA9_Vito]

bet his rx7 will beat you :taun:

[David88vert]

bet his rx7 will beat you :taun:



I'm 100% positive that it would beat him. 1000#s lighter than him.

[boosted347]

Yea those damn ls swapped rx7s are beast my buddy has a head cam ls1 in an fc so its even lighter than an fd, he also has an mkIV supra so i gotta choose which one i wanna run lol

[thundercatz1]

Yea I know it will....... I'm not the fastest but I'm not the slowest either. Vert is the slowest

[David88vert]

Yea I know it will....... I'm not the fastest but I'm not the slowest either. Vert is the slowest

I may not be fast, but we count your 1/4 mile passes in minutes .....

Black rx7? He bought the car already in that condition minus the wheels..He may have paid 12 for the whole car..its pretty quick...I hope to line up with it at a the track someday.

[thundercatz1]

Yeah it's black and he's a young tall caucasian male. I hope to line up with it too lol

[japan4racing]

Yeah it's black and he's a young tall caucasian male. I hope to line up with it too lol

His name is Kyle he also has a supposedly built sr powered 240. The rx7 is pretty sick and I look forward to seeing some 1/4 mile times out of it. I have ridden in the car and I must say it is very strong but still think my car can run with it. That car will no doubt out handle my car as he proved on my ride along but I think it can be a pretty good race in the 1320 if I can stick my power to the ground.

[thundercatz1]

Yeah he's a cool dude. I hope to see it at the track...

[Catnip]

Where the fuck were you? I can't believe you aren't talking about the Evo that was tearing shit up, that RX8 was cool, but wasn't making laps as fast as the Evo...

I think he may have you by a bit, but I'd definitely like to see the race!

[thundercatz1]

Man I knew I should have stayed longer..... All the cars excluding the white and red evo went like 5 times in a row and didn't think the evos were gona run I thought they were just watching and when I left the best car I saw was the rx8.... Next month I will stay for the whole thing because I thought it was over

[Catnip]

The Evo was being driven by the track designer, and he was fucking' shit up like a boss after lunch.

[japan4racing]

I think he may have you by a bit, but I'd definitely like to see the race!

I hope to find out some day. Like I said I need to put the power to the ground. If I could hook like his car did on those stock wheels I would be happy. He hit 2nd and it wheel hopped and went! Def a quick car though.

[NoRotor]

Black LS1 FD in GA? Any pics? I thought I knew of all the swapped fd's in GA but I guess not.

[Evil Goat]

There arent't that many left around here...I saw an '04 for sale on Watson blvd last weekend and that was the first time I've seen on in a good couple months

[thundercatz1]

Yeah it's a rare car to see in macon... I know a guy that had one but he wrecked it in lake wildwood

[DA9_Vito]
