Prepare to be flamed, because you deserve it with that comment.
To answer the ORIGINAL question, import guys dont know how to talk shit because theyre immature when compared to the muscle guys. Not saying all import owners are 18yo douchebags, but the majority of import owners are young. Hence they have egos that they feel the need to protect. So when you even playfully rip on an import guy's car it can get out of hand easily if both parties dont walk on eggshells. The muscle guys are mostly older and know how to take a little joking. They can go back and forth knowing that the other person is joking with them, but still respects their car. Whereas an import owner would normally just claim that theyre car could walk the other persons'/they could beat the other person up etc.
Again this is in general. There are many exceptions on both sides. I have met my share of cool import owners and douchebag domestic owners, and vice versa.
And to respond to the whole SCC thing. Yes the cover is stupid, but the line below the "12 sec quarter-mile" does say "1.08g skipad". And about 90% of the article isnt about how fast the car ran the 1/4, but how well it handles. And all without another use of the word "insane".

The cover doesnt show it, but that article talks about what the car was designed for, which isnt drag racing.
There, I think I covered all of it.
