stats are as stated earlier in the thread, small block chevy w/ nitrous, no forced induction, full street car... i will hold you to your word on the $100 back out... zo, what is it that your car is set up for w/ a 13" wide drag radial and nitrous??? autocross???
why dont we here about your car? or is it not worth mentioning. if your not racing stop stoking the fire. good job getting a race set up for your buddy nothing wrong with that, but once its set up. step aside, get back in the rear view and let the big boys handle their businessOriginally Posted by draggbody

draggbody I have a civic ready to run your car also!!!! jerry said your car is ready and he will back me up on that so bring your shitty 3xxhp turbo turd box also!! or stfu!!!
I already asked this at one point wondering why most of us have not heard much about it. I mean unless he just threw it together over a weekend and never takes it out he must have a hell of a stealth cover up lol
I know people who have never taken a car out of a garage after a build yet and hear rumors of what its got
Yet no one from this huge ass Columbus crew really knows whats up or how shit works with it
if you are calling me out, start a thread for that... isnt that how this works, remember??? and why are you so hostile??? all of this name calling, i dont get it... i simply ask you to be accountable for your actions and you get all bent out of shape... you say that i didnt talk to jerry, and i prove i was and now you dont want to talk about that anymore... you said you would run me on motor and give me 4 cars out, bring your ass to columbus and i'll take it... remember, you call me out and i get to make the rules... your race, my rules... thats the hoops we jumped through... you might want to reread this thread just to see the hypocracy in your own posts... because i assure you that i'll race you based on the same standards of bullshit that we agreed to race you by... or stfu!!!
I am a neutral and well know industry guy/3rd party and will hold the money. GFL holder, just give me a time and location 24/7.
C'mon now! I'm starting to feel left out. If your trying to do a little research before you respond i'll help you out. I'm as honest as they come. Just ask away. The old 280Z is a pimp lookin' car. I like it! I will also give him the other lane at a track of your, I mean HIS choice since it is his car. I dont care how much it wieghs or what suspension it has. If it is a small block with a true 10.5 or smaller tire, I'm game. Yall can hose that fucker with as many guns as you can bolt on that mother fucker. And I dont really know Z0SICK but I have seen him win and lose a couple hundred on the street. He certainly isnt afraid to run for a little change but I didnt think he wanted to play in this league. Not sure that he should be playing in this league either but hey, its his money. I'm both excited and interested. Carry on gentleman.
I agree i dont fit in with the 1/8 mile 800-1000 hp auto street/strip cars but i will roll race it like we agreed on and the impala will be there looking to dig with jerry, so why dont you bring your car out and get in on the action since were supposly talking street cars ...
we will see if its a true sbc with spry this weekend.. or is it the turbo one he has... and not one person knows what i got or thinks they know.. minds will be blown this weekend ...
Very stealthy indeed I must say... if u seen it u would be like LOL but if u knew it u would be like O DAMN but dragbody is a big boy and can speak for himself. Some ppl don't run around trying to showboat and flaunt everything they have like most loosers on hereI already asked this at one point wondering why most of us have not heard much about it.

I don't blame for wanting a lock in after he didn't show with the whole bobby race which should have been easy money but still didn't show....I say we let his wife hold the money...lol
[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]
Do you think anyone really cares? Its a street race..."run what ya brung" Nowhere are there rules that say "jerry" or any other racer cant just go build what you build (or paid to be built) Guys have the ability to race sbc or bbc or turbos...to each their own. Not sure where you get off thinking anyone cares what the big secret is...its not like someone is going to go back and rebuild their car when they find out what you have. (waiting on the big bad mainly reply on how I am a noobie and I should STFU) Also the only minds that will be blown this weekend are yours when your ass gets dragggggged by oid proven race technology. Well, people might care when they realize "what you got" didn't afford you a win.
HEY JUSTIN BEEBER YOUR A ''LOSER'' !! I HOPE YOU COME THIS WEEKEND SO I CAN SHUT U UP, BRING THAT RICER AND ILL GIVE YOU THE 4 CARS, SO DONT MAKE EXCUSES !! AND SORRY YOU CANT AFFORD TO GET OUT OF 8 MILE WITH YOUR COUSIN BOBBY AND CANT FlAUNT THAT '' BABY MOMMA GROCERY GETTER'' .... HELL MAYBE YOU DO I BET YOU DRIVE AROUND MAKING IT BLOW OFF IN EVERY GEAR LOL... I DRIVE MY CAR NOT TALK ABOUT IT OR SOMEONE ELSES SHIT LIKE YOU MIDDLE AGED KIDS !!
Wow a light 280z with a cage, built auto, with 3 kits ... (375-475) na then (750) on spry.... And his other z car is a turbo race car... anything more and its not a sbc ..
And for the bobby race i was not even in town or i would have let my girl drag his ass! it was just like him and his last race adventure calling someone out at 11pm ...

Anyways, you're gonna look like a chump not racing them guys.. It's Funny how you bark, but no bite.. Those guys on MCE cut you slack, but I think you pissed these Columbus boys off.. They will take your money that's why you called-on the Impala to save you... bahahahahah!!

Whats wrong with being a middle aged kid? I enjoy it.
I got no problem throwing radials on my shit and driving it around all night but I could never convince you that my shit is street car. It has a cage. It has a Glide with a trans-brake. There is no heat or AC. No power steering. No cruise control. It runs on C16. I buy the fuel and if I wanna spend two or three hundred bucks to cruise around on a Saturday night, thats my problem. You see, apparently driving a car around on the street does not make it a street car these days. At what point are people gonna start saying shit like "if it doesnt get at least 30 MPG, its not a street car"? Obviously a cage disqualifies me even though it is required at any track that is worth going to. My auto trans disqualifies me even though over half the cars produced come with auto trans. Some say anyone can go fast with an auto. Just floor it. Those are the guys that think they are clutch car heroes. Typically those clowns are the ones that will only race from a roll because, in their words "my shit wont hook up". I say show me them skills and get that pig moving from a dig or STFU about your driving skills. It doesnt matter if I fired my shit up and drove to Daytona Beach and back. It will always be a RACE car to some of you guys. I'm damned if I do and damned if I dont. I could say your car should be fast as fuck, you spoent enough money on it. And you might tell me its not your problem that I didnt spend enough money. And you would be right. But at the same time, its not my fault you are racing with a manual trans in a 3,000 pound car with low profile 20 inch tires. I hope you motherfuckers can get together and make this happen. I would love to see the video. But I cant set around in a parking all night being called a bully or a pussy for trying to race a street car with a race car. Even though we are talking about racing them and I did drive my shit up there. Good Luck to all.

i like the way you think... you sound like a real racer, run what you brung and hope you brought enough... if someone is out of their league, then they should just be man enough to say it... we will be there w/ money in hand, and hopefully there will be someone there to race... jerry agreed to run zo w/ no lock in... soooooo, i guess we'll see yall there... will he???
We all know what a race car is, whether you want to admit that it's purpose built is on you..
That imapla is a nasty bitch, I'm sure if you look hard enough you will find a 5 somewhere, small block base with big block cubes and guns...LOL
But I'm pretty sure ZOsick will bitch out, atleast from a dig, which will force a dig with that Impala..
[QUOTE=1civic;39385081]We all know what a race car is, whether you want to admit that it's purpose built is on you..
You just proved my point. The point when the other guys car stops being a street car is when he took it a little farther than you did.
Its an easy out. Keep that ACE up your sleeve because your gonna be using it all your life.
Well I'm in another league, my car is slow... But I can't say my car was not built with a purpose in mind, it's a street car, but it goes both ways!!
Just a thought, Can you pass emissions? Some county's don't require them, but that's a big step to being a true street car, even if it's purpose built...

still a cobra here in columbus with a sb in it willing to run upwards of 15k interior is there it has a roll cage sorry if that dq's him but he will run anyone you guys can think of and call me a cheer leader or whatever you all like i drive a talon it satisfies me so yes to make it fair i would have to get a friend to run being im in no competition to run with the high hp cars yall talk of but either way seems everyone likes to race and also a malibu is the atl area said he will run too but dont mean to complicate this more than it is and c16 smells good but im more familiar with c23 being we run it in everything from the golf cart to yes the "race car"

passing emmisions is not a true test for a race car lol. how many mustangs and lsx are there that put o/r midpipes on because they like the sound and have no county emmisions. if you put emmision centers in north ga. almost every v8 car, jacked up truck, or old trail truck would fail the hell out of it

impossible... this is 100% his race... his turf, he called the money, he called 1/4 mile, he called a roll, he called no lock in... says his word and street credit should be enough, we agreed... other than bringing another car up for him to drive, im not sure what else can be done to make this happen... i am so excited....
jerry has talked w/ the impala dude... he says he's a cool dude... thats how it should be... we are all in this for the same reason, right... we all want a race... if impala dude shows and wants to race from a dig, thats great!!! thats what he wants and thats what we want, no talking, just racing...

oh its happening... i know someones doing a rain dance out there... thats the only thing that can keep it from happening...
Here is my 2 cents - when you add in "old age inflation", it's now worth 3 cents.
A street car should generally be a car that could be daily driven as it is currently setup, without any changes. It should be a car that you wouldn't mind driving it back and forth to a job 20 miles away from you every day for the next six months in all weather conditions, and it should be at least reasonably road legal. Street car track classes generally require the driver to drive 30 miles on the street in a street legal setup, then stage with nothing more than tire pressure adjustment - no changing maps in the computer, changing fuel source, changing timing, etc.
Tires - they need to be DOT approved, and not bald where you would get a ticket for them, or would be afraid to get on the interstate in the the rain. Hoosier QTPxs, and MT ET Streets are DOT legal, as are DRs, but slicks are not. Face it - it's not safe to drive from Atlanta to SDR on slicks at 70mph. That's a fact.
Fuel - C16 and C23 are not legal by any means - not even remotely close. You can't drive your car 500 miles from home and back, because you wouldn't be able to get fuel. Pump gas, and maybe the exception of VP100 (which is street legal fuel) is what a street car runs. Meth injection and nitrous are technically not street legal, but reality is that you can quickly hook or unhook a nitrous line, and meth injection is not your main source of fuel, so they generally are allowed on street cars.
Air/Heat/PS/PB - Many cars never came with these accessories, and you don't have to have them in a street car. Period. Not having them is a personal choice.
Gutted interior - There is no reason why a gutted interior would turn a street car into a race car. If the owner wants to make his street car more uncomfortable, it's his call.
Cage/race harness - There is no legal reason why you can't have a cage in a street car. A cage does not make the car a race car.
Emissions/Tag/Insurance - Most counties in the US do not require emissions; however, the car needs to have a current tag/registration, and currently be insured to be a street car.
That's it. The speed of the car has nothing to do with it being a street car or race car.
"Racing is life. Anything before or after is just waiting." - Steve McQueen
No, you won't. The car doesn't go to the track.
"Racing is life. Anything before or after is just waiting." - Steve McQueen
I can vouch for the Impala. He races as long as it is a reasonable race, and has no trouble with winning or losing. He just moved down here last year, and just enjoys racing on the street.
"Racing is life. Anything before or after is just waiting." - Steve McQueen
Umm no it will not. It is a 1970 model car. So along with having 18 inch or larger wheels, air conditioning, stereo system, manual trans, cruise control, leather interior, navigation system and no cage, it must now pass current EPA regulations? Even if the car was never fitted with smog equipment from the factory? Man I give up.
the obvious game is saying a street car is whatever a persons setup is and anything more its a race car... certain corvette owners use this tactic often... even though a car has nitrous and 13" wide tires, its not setup for drag racing because it has a/c, leather, and navigation ... dont be discouraged by all of these rules, bring your car out... we will be there... we want to race, win or lose, its just racing... if you can drive it on the street and its got a tag and insurance and you call it your street car, its a street car and we'll run it...
SDR's rules for "Street Car" just say that it has DOT approved tires, valid insurance, and registration and was driven not trailered through the gate. As far as emissions goes, its not a factor in defining a car as street legal because down here in columbus we don't test for that. Should be a good race for all parties involved. Good Luck
Being that specific about what a street car is or isntHere is my 2 cents - when you add in "old age inflation", it's now worth 3 cents.
A street car should generally be a car that could be daily driven as it is currently setup, without any changes. It should be a car that you wouldn't mind driving it back and forth to a job 20 miles away from you every day for the next six months in all weather conditions, and it should be at least reasonably road legal. Street car track classes generally require the driver to drive 30 miles on the street in a street legal setup, then stage with nothing more than tire pressure adjustment - no changing maps in the computer, changing fuel source, changing timing, etc.
So basically being streetable doesnt mean anything it must be "realiable transportation". And because I have other vehicles to drive and I decided to get a little more radical with my hobby/special intrest car and it only gets 8-10 MPG its not a street car??? Even if I can cruise it around all fuckin' night with no problems as long as I keep filling it with gas, it does not matter??? I just dont get it.
Tires - they need to be DOT approved, and not bald where you would get a ticket for them, or would be afraid to get on the interstate in the the rain. Hoosier QTPxs, and MT ET Streets are DOT legal, as are DRs, but slicks are not. Face it - it's not safe to drive from Atlanta to SDR on slicks at 70mph. That's a fact.
Agreed. If your gonna call it a street car and race it as a street car, the tires must be DOT legal. But mostly because this is one of the first things a dickhead cop is gonna pull you over for.
Fuel - C16 and C23 are not legal by any means - not even remotely close. You can't drive your car 500 miles from home and back, because you wouldn't be able to get fuel. Pump gas, and maybe the exception of VP100 (which is street legal fuel) is what a street car runs. Meth injection and nitrous are technically not street legal, but reality is that you can quickly hook or unhook a nitrous line, and meth injection is not your main source of fuel, so they generally are allowed on street cars.
First of all, how many stations would you pass on that 500 mile trip that sells the VP100? So what you are saying is racing fuel should not be allowed because it is illegal but all the nitrous, turbos, blowers, intakes and exhaust systems that are used which you know good and god damn well are just as illegal should be overlooked. This is called picking and choosing and backs up my exact arguement of "If I didnt do it to my car and you did, yours is not a street car"
Air/Heat/PS/PB - Many cars never came with these accessories, and you don't have to have them in a street car. Period. Not having them is a personal choice.
Agreed.
Gutted interior - There is no reason why a gutted interior would turn a street car into a race car. If the owner wants to make his street car more uncomfortable, it's his call.
Agreed. But it looks like shit.
Cage/race harness - There is no legal reason why you can't have a cage in a street car. A cage does not make the car a race car.
Agreed. Catch 22 here though. If you crash your car on the street with one, you could end up a perma-tard if you bounce your head off that thing. And at the track, if you stuff a car into the wall on the big end or flip it at any speed, and you live, you'll wish you had one.
Emissions/Tag/Insurance - Most counties in the US do not require emissions; however, the car needs to have a current tag/registration, and currently be insured to be a street car.
Agreed
That's it. The speed of the car has nothing to do with it being a street car or race car.
Amen yal are making this way to much of a deal... I run nitrious Meth and slicks on the street and its still a street car
[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]
Seems everyone has excuses for what a true street car is...LOL
Joe blow is required by his county to have emissions to register his car, but jim bob is not... SMH!!
For some of us its really simple. If it is tagged, insured, and you drive it on public roads. All the other BS is just an excuse not to race.
