Default another rant

OK yesterday a few people came over to help my roomie w/ his crx... A few of them know that I'm working on a tt 302 that I am looking to have done by this time next year. "great birthday gift to me" But anyways they are yapping about getting thier blocks sleeved and saying things like thier boosted honduh is gonna hand me my ass. I realy dont see it or thinking it will happen since the numbers and displacement are much greater than theirs, even w/ thier sleeved block and all. As a comparison to wieght there isnt that much of a differance: 85 coupe 2617 "title stated - as I know that will change w/ the swap" and the civic hatch is wieghing damn near the same maybe a 200 lbs differance tops. As well I dont see them pushing anything near 700 hp or torque to dig w/ either. Yet at the same time im thinking about getting a second job to get my toy biult faster.

There are bigger fish to fry rather than just worry about all these slowass imports around here. I wouldn't worry about them or let it bother me if I were you.

I dont see how you with a 26xx lb car with 700 rwhp should need to fear a Honduh. At least 99.9% of them. Just keep in mind

Even tho I know a them, I think after its all said and done, and the bugs are worked out... Im going to have to put them in thier place. just out of spite. you know....

Your problem is you, not them. Why do you care so much what they think?

Hey Scotty, this is Ryan, I was with Bryan the other day when you were tearing your 85 down at his house. Let them trash talk, Even better tell them to line up with Bryan in his coupe, hell we can go better we can get Bill's 351 against anything they got. Its in there hon-duh nature, they talk shit, and cant back it up. but I knwo what you mean, it gets under my skin as well.

We need to get ahold of Sol93GT (Briane) he has a stock 302 with twin dryer's on it. Let them hon-duh or import boys talk shit with his car.
