I think you guys are getting me all wrong. I'm not all dsm's are God's car and will crush the world. But when I see a bunch of ricers at the track reving their motors so everyone can hear their bov's while they are sitting 50cars back in the staging lanes makes me start to hate these cars/owners. I think alot of you know what I'm talking about. Then they go run a 13.x something at 100+ mph and they think they are god. Fuck there is a mazda 323 at our track that runs 105mph with him driving and he weighs 300lbs. Just because you can race people from a roll and beat stock cars or slightly modded cars doesn't mean shit to me. You wanna race and complain about traction? Fine lets race from 0-160mph, alot of supra's agree to races like that. Alot of the skittles technology came from dsm's so I don't see why they try to even knock them to start out with. Everyone complains about how dsm's break. DUH WTF, your putting 350-400+ hp to all 4 wheels that puts a strain on metal and it breaks. That's like puting 700 hp to the rear wheels of a car on slicks and expect nothing to happen. Who cares about dyno numbers or blah blah blah. Where I come from and my thoughts are, run what you brung, bring it on the street and dont ask me about giving you the hit or go from a roll, that's for pussies. If you can't put it down on the street, it's worthless to me.
And for the trannies. So what, go buy a tre or shep, add 2k to the amount you have spend on your car and you will still go as fast if not faster for half the price and then you dont have to worry about the stock shitty ass tranny giving out on you.
