Actually yes, since you brought it up, its true. I think his rims and tires are worth more than your whole car.

You are the one who felt compelled to make a statement of relative worth
between someone else's car and your own. The fact is that one person's pride and joy might be considered to be anothers person's POS. Its all subjective.

But in this case, I dont think ANYONE in the world who could compare a econobox 4 cylinder meant solely for miserly operation to a 11 second/125+ mph trapping, road racing muscle car and not come to the conclusion that the former is a POS.

thats your race ricer opinion.everything comes down to how fast u go with u doesnt it?.there are other thing i life. some people dont want a fast car you know.it might be hard to believe.but it is true.u sound like i should be jealous or somthing.what a joker.

nothing stops anyone going out and buying a car and making fast.other then the want/need for it.i dont want or need one at the moment.

I thought you were into cars ukunt? That's the argument people who don't care about their cars make for why they drive corrollas and seats. I don't know anyone who's into cars that doesn't like fast ones.

What do you think this forum is generally about? I thought it was mainly about vids about fast cars and bikes.. maybe I've been misled. Shall we discuss gardening or your favourite recipes instead?

And you always sound like I should give any credibility when talking about fast cars to a person who drives a 19 second beat box, thinks that piloting a car to a 9 second qtr mile takes no skill, and constantly whines about "europe-this, europe-that" no matter how irrelevant it is to the topic at hand.

Riiighhtt. Dont want, dont need or cant afford? Did you not say that you the reason why you chose your car was the cost of petrol? You forgot that little thing we in the real world like to call money. LOL.

spending money on fuel is somthing i dont want to do..thats why i have no need or want a fast car.if ur happy to spend fuel on ur car fair anuff.enjoy ur car.

i also feel even if i did have a fast car it still wouldnt be a v8 american made car and GM will always be better.kind of a no win in ur eyes.

I once read a comment from a forum from the actual owner of the AMS EVO. From when the video was made the AMS Evo was only pushing around 600AWHP (much much more today). He was litterly beating everything on the street. WHAT HE SAID ON THE COMMENT that the domastic guys had to put a Camaro drag car to beat him on the street that time.

Drag car vs pure street car and the drag car doesn't run very much faster is still a shame to the domastic crew.

That Camaro drag car couldn't even drive home legally like the AMS Evo did :loser1:

By the way what's all the b1tching about? It's boring...

then why are there no Evo's competeing in the fastest street car competitions?? Because they would get smoked, that's why!!! There are street legal rwd V8's that will go 8's in the 1/4 mile, plenty to make that evo a meer speck in the rearview mirror.

If you spoke with the actual owner of the AMS EVO, you will also know that the guy with the camaro was from out of state. Nobody, even the AMS guy, would put wear and tear on their car to drive their car from one state to the next to run somebody which is why it was on a trailer.

Pure street car? Perhaps everyone has a different interpretation of what a street car is. The AMS evo is very very impressive, but dont make it out like a it was a contest between a pure drag camaro and a pure street car. To me, PURE street car means pump gas + emissions legal, tagged and plated. Do you get 116+ octane at your pump? I dont either. You make it sound like that AMS gets 30 mpg, runs on pump and meets any sort of smog regulation. Hint: it doesnt.

If you want to talk about full drag car, you would have seen wheelie bars, a chute and they would have run from a dig. The camaro would have left it by bus lengths from a stop (its gearing wasnt even set up for roll racing and he still walked that evo).

I very much agree with you. An essential street car is on pump gass, emission legal, insurance, tagget and plate.

BUT let me ALOW to say this which the domastic guys ALWAYS forget or avoid to take in consideration trying to define the diffinition of a street car is that "THEY ALWAYS FORGET THE WORD STREET TIRES"

AND a true street car should be good at EVERYTHING, NOT just straight line. A strue street car is that a car can perform everything good with pump gass and street tires weather it is about straight line, auto X, touge, top speed etc. NO matter how you put it EVO, Scoobies and Skylines are by FAR the winner here. TOTB street legal car competition is proof enough, NOT just good at the straight line if you want a true definiton of a street car IMO..

A true street legal car include pump gass, emission legal, insurance, tagged and plate AND STREET TIRES

On street tires? No way! Some DR is street legal yes but it's a still a tire you still don't drive everyday with.

I hate to add Skyline in a comment but let me say this if you guys ever heard about street competition such as the TOTB or street legal drag race in Japan they're all street legal and runs on street tires

Skyline does in the 9 sec with pure street tires and pump gass, not many V8 can perform that even though much more power and torque..

I still don't understand that why so many domastic guys never learn that power is not everything for a street car. A true street car in per definition is also about how much power you can put to the ground most effectivly without loosing traction on street tires..

IMO!
