I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

First good race on new setup

Post by Hercules » April 22, 2008

setup
average build 9.0:1 gsr in ek hatch
stock sleeves
top mount

Well i was on my way home tonight and took the boulevard way..decided to take an extra lap around before i go home and a white mustang rolls up beside me. I think to myself..omg this prick just ran a 11.6 @ 120 i have no chance. So i do a pull past him to let him know i want a peice. Then we get to do like 3 runs from 2nd gear and i end up pulling on him once i get traction at the top of third shifting into 4th, all 3 times. He did have 2 guys with him and i was by myself so i'm not gonna say i have an 11 sec car or anything. I'm sure he would dust me if he was by himself and from a dig.

I'm just really really excited i'm in that area, i havent ran my car at the strip yet but i hope to hit some mid 12's @ 115ish.

Also the mustang owner was my age and is a pretty cool dude, he was pumped about my car being quick. So i just wanted to share my story with you guys because super pumped haha

I'll have to get some pics up of my car, its a bit multi-colored right now tho.

haha thats awesome man. I love when guys in mustangs or cameros act like their car is all hot shit then lose a honda/acura, just makes me smile....i still never here the end of it from my dad though, he's always bustin on me for driving a honda and stuff, but i guess he can talk because he was a pretty mean 1973 Trans Am with a built 455 in it. its fast and extremely torquey, so fun to ride in...
