Don't mean to be rude but, I put 6+ cars on you from a roll and more from a stop even after a slowed down to wait for you to catch up in first. I think you will need more than gears to keep up. However you should be able to take Jay with a good launch.

Had fun though, hope to see you get your car running better.

 

There's nothing rude about the truth. As I said you trounced me from both a dead stop and a rolling start, and your are absolutely correct that it is going to take more than gears to even think about competing with you.

Knowing how people like to keep their secrets on this board, its the reason why I have only stated I'll be getting some "mods". I'll at least admit to the fact that I will be able to run 25 lbs of boost again once they are completed.

Once I get my car back from the shop you may still be able to beat me, but it will neat to see what happens when we are both able to run the same amount of boost. Since we both had a fun time last time, hopefully the next time around will be even more so.

 

Hey, I was just telling you why people looked so cold. That's BADRAP's spot and they don't take too kindly to new people. But if one of the BADRAP people invited you...I just know how they ranted last time when your crew of 3000's came in, peeling out in the parking lot, etc.

Be sure though...almost all of those cars were faster than 14 seconds. More like mostly 13 and 12's with a few 11's stuck in the mix.

 

Invited by whom? Off the top of my head, I can't think of any of the Badrap guys that would invite an import to their spot no matter how fast they are. My guess would be that you were invited by another import who was never invited in the first place.

Also, the only time I saw someone getting "rude" was when a nice long line of imports rolled in. If you were in that line, you were not alone. Doesn't make much difference to me who shows up where but knowing that most of those don't like imports no matter how fast they are, why would you want to go there anyway? It is unfortunate for those import drivers who do not cause trouble that you drive the same kinds of cars that the ricer punks do. Cops tend to follow long lines of imports and that's why you don't get welcomed whe you roll in. Not fair maybe but not much in life is fair.

Well, I don't know who the mystery friend of the C4 was but he was probably a non-member who may post or just hangs with Badrap. If you can come up with a name or a screen name, I'll check it out. The other one who you're talking about is I assume Jeff who used to have an Eclipse but now drives a black '01 Cobra. Neither he nor 4VChick are members of Badrap either. They post on the board and hang out sometimes. I like both of them and have no problem with either one. Matter of fact, I think they're pretty nice people, but, they have no right to invite anyone to Badrap's spot speaking as Badrap. So, like I said before, I can't think of any Badrap member who would invite an import out to their spot.

Like I said, it doesn't make a whole lot of difference to me but to most of Badrap, it does. And yes you may not consider a stock looking stealth that is pretty fast to be rice, but most of them do. It shouldn't be a secret to anyone that Badrap is a RWD domestic only club..with a couple of grandfathered in exceptions. So it should come as no surprise to you or anyone that you won't be welcomed with open arms if you show up at their spot driving an import. If you want to get unbored and go there, yes, bring the Valiant.

There are plenty of domestics on this board if you want to try your luck...and a lot of them either post on Badrap or are members. I'm one of 'em. Personally, I've been on this board as long as I've been on Badrap...probably a little longer. This is where I found out about Badrap. I'm a dues paying member there but I still check in here too. I just don't post that much over here.

I'm not trying to give you or anyone else a ration of crap here but just tryng to drop a word to the wise. If you get invited to a Badrap get together and you drive an import, check the credentials of who is inviting you before you go or else you might be disappointed in your welcome...which is apparently what happened in your case.

As Zate posted above we had an invite from Robert and still I didn't feel that comfortable with my car there, since that night I have shown up a couple times in my truck, and will probably continue to do so until my next project comes together.
