That wasnt my best time, however, I did manage to pull one amazing pass, (dont ask how, it was too long ago to remember) but I pulled of a high 11.99, and lets just say I am not mr. consistent, and needless to say I blew my motor very soon after. But basically I told the editor most of my runs were low to high 12's. Plus being how it is now, I think my third best run of 12.71 would be appropriate. I didnt want people all over my *** for slips and everything, so I kept it modest.

The only thing that I congratulate him on is not his car, but rather that he accomplished what he set out to do.

A fallacy is an erroneous belief or misleading notion, either of which is applicable when calling into question the validity of an accusation or an opinion. I'm not sure where you got the impression that the word fallacy had anything to do with logic, but perhaps going back to school wasn't such a bad idea after all...

validity is either invalid or valid, which leads you to the root of validity, logic
i am in class..prelaw to be exact, and that's all i've been doing for the past few months
secondly, it is a fallacy to relate the amount of posts I have to the content of my post....it's called the straw man fallacy, attempting to bring attention to a seperate issue as a result from the lack of evidence to refute the current issue

I have done a little trimming on this entire thread.
The purpose was to show that he was happy with his car, and achievements.
I understand everyone has a right to post their opinions, but please, lets start this one over.
Do not turn this into a flame thread.
Also, if I removed your post, it wasn't personal, just off topic.

I least appreciate the looks of my car, in fact, I think it's cursed with good looks. I believe that if it weren't so damn attractive, then the "import scene" would pay considerably less attention to it. The appearance strikes me as something that mostly other people will enjoy, unless you gain something personal from the positive opinions of others. On the other hand, there's the acute handling and raw power that causes the leather bucket seats to firmly hug my ribs. That's just for me. I harness the beast.
