Re: World Cup: Import vs Domestics - RESULTS Thread
Combination of more imports / more non-shop cars being imports running more stock parts / and the limits being pushed.
Domestics have 30 years of trial and error on imports in drag racing. Id say we've come damn far in the last 10 years.

to grannyshifting: EPIC wheel in motor street. my jaw about hit the ground when you did that.
too many damn half assed cars out there breaking. all these POS cars coming to line shittily thrown together with their puerto rican flags hanging from the mirror breaking all over the place. i swear if you dont have the money to build your car right dont show up to race at an event like that or any track for that matter where your wasting peoples time who actually did stuff right and the spectators time. i stayed till 830 because i had a 2 1/2 hour drive. and i wish i coulda seen a lot more racing but just too much stuff breaking
and DAMN to the kasper mustang going 6.56 It was just insane to be there for that. i really wish Tim Lynch would come to this event granted he would **** all over that class.

THANK YOU. YES I WAS TOLD BY WAY TO MANY PEOPLE THAT THINGS WERE WORDED TO BELIEVE IT WAS JEFF'S OR THE SHOPS CAR AND I WAS SICK OF IT. BUT I MUST TAKE UP FOR JEFF AND SAY HE ACTUALLY DID PUT A LOT OF WORK INTO MY CAR. HE ALSO LOST A LOT OF SLEEP AND STRESSED HIMSELF OUT OVER MY CAR. AGAIN IF IT WASN'T FOR CHARM CITY THIS CAR WOULDN'T BE WHERE IT IS NOW AND THAT IS WHY I PROMOTE THEM. JUST WANTED TO CLEAR THE AIR BC IF ONE MORE PERSON CAME TO ME ASKING WHY I WAS DRIVING THE CAR OR TELL JEFF GREAT JOB WITH HIS CAR, I WAS GONNA SNAP.
Anyways, congratulations again! Keep up the good work. Want to see an 8 second true street car soon!

speaking of which, you put down water or some fluid at Fall Nat causing a clean up. And almost caused the car behind you to be blamed for the liquid. (they literally backed him off the line and was waving him to head off to the side b4 someone from his camp pointed out that it was the Enzo 7 that put water down on his pass. The officials spoke it out for about 5 minutes then told him he was good to race)
Cliftnotes : this was after your John Force 5 minute burnout , and literally spun the whole track almost crashing.
Just saying.. things happen!! Take it for what it is!

And no i didn't oil down anything... maybe just a bit of water from an overfilled/melted intercooler tank from sitting around waiting from oil downs. Ironic huh...
Point is things do happen and rather then blaming everyone else about oil downs,etc, we should be enforcing catch pans, diapers, etc.. Blaming everyone else doesn't help anything..

yup.. that was me. I tried every which way to get those new goodyear tires to work but they just didn't... and after that burnout tire temps were still only 115 degrees..

What does the puertorican flag have to with it.I saw plenty of cars breaking in all of the classes is racing it happens,especially in an event of this magnitude where the imports are trying to prove something and the domestics are trying to destroy the imports.But to stereo type one ethnic group is just wrong.

Ya'll have fun with that breakage discussion.. Just noticed in Outlaw vs Extreme listed Miguel Ortiz in a 94 Civic 7.99 @ 162. Haven't heard of or seen this car before anyone have pics/specs. I guess RWD. How did he do?
