I got beat by a DelSol before....boosting 14psi and NO2 though, I beat him off the line bad, then he passed me like I was standing still. That's when I was stock though.

do you feel better now?

 

DAYUM!!! joed, calm down dude, we're all friends here
but still... i very seriously doubt that race. the guy with the rx7 was obviously having serious probs with his car

 

Here's what I posted on the Supra Forum:

"That is MY RX-7.
1)My boost gauge is malfunctioning so I'm not sure what the low boost setting was set too. I thought it was set to six. It may be 8.
2)My turbos are non-sequential. I kick *** in a drag race, but my turbo lag is hideous.
3)I went non-sequential the day before that race. I am just now learning to drive the new setup.
3)The Prelude has massive midrange. At the strip I would destroy him. From a roll, a)my turbo had to spool, b)he has massive midrange.
4)I accidentally hit the switch between low & high boost on my Profec B. Any one who has one knows that this is easy to do.
5)I missed third gear a bit. Anyone who has driven a 3rd Gen RX7 knows it happens to the best of them. "

Give me a break.

 

so what are your mods?

 

just what FD's need...the supra ******** ripping on them more.

 

How do you guys think I feel? I've never seen 10 lbs. on my FD yet. My ghost boost leak won't let me no matter what my mech. checks or replaces. I've been stuck @ 9-6-6. Tell me if I don't work for my kills.

 

a prelude with a supercharger is fast, but a BPU RX-7 that is working correctly should be able to easily take one.

 

He forgot to hit the red button on the steering wheel, like Vin Diesel.

 

I myslef hope that when Dragonz818 hit the tree it causes you to hit the riced out Prelude with a FD replica body kit (you know the C-west ones?) and total your Mommy's Benz so little Joey gets his *** spanked.

 

A Prelude with a SC is faster than a stock Prelude. That's about it. But it depends on the list of mods I guess... I can't even understand why a SC prelude would try a FD. Considering it'll run 14.20's at best... maybe a super high 13.

 

Actually that particular Prelude ran a 14.3 before the supercharger, so I really don't think you know what you're talking about. Besides, it wasn't a drag race. It wasn't really a race at all, just some friends testing out the new s/c.

 

14.3 in a stock Prelude? You're out of your mind, or were using an out of tune G-Tech.

I'm calling BS on that, unless you have a timeslip for that stock prelude's run.

Preludes weigh like 3100 pounds, and only have 200 flywheel hp.... no way it will cut a 14.3 S2000's have a hard enough time doing that.

From what I remember, the newer Prelude SH's are slow and can only do mid to high 15's. Prelude's are show cars...that chassis doesn't really have any potential...

 

Only way a stock prelude can run 14.3 is if the motor is in a civic. I dont care how great of a driver you are that car is just to heavy for that.

He didn't say it was stock before the SC...

 

Ok not stock? what can it have Intake headers exhuast right?

164 to wheels with all the bolt ons. Doubt he had cams cuz the jackson racing blower is only good with stock cams. He woudlnt buy cams just to get rid of em later. So lets say 170 to the wheels plus 3100lbs still does not equal 14.3.

Man, this has been a funny thread! If I lost to a Qualude, I would also hit the nearest tree
