Red face Manual Tranny's with 200hp dont spin tires!

"man u know nothin about tire spinnin.. i didnt say that peeps with manuals dont spinn i am just sayin that u dont have enough hp to break them loose Read the post again damn there goes ur high school education coming in.. i was just talkin about u not everyone on the whole goddamn planet their goes ur stupidity showing again.... rethink before u post somethin..
Im a horrible driver hehehe dont make me laugh just by pressing the gas and i spin u wouldnt be able to drive my truck because u wouldnt be able to keep it on the road .. u dont know anything about a rearwheel drive vehicle just shows ur ignorance..."


Does this make sense to anyone?
I've seen a 117hp civic break traction.

Do I really not know anything about "tire spinnin" or is this quote useless?

I think it's saying do it in a straight line without touching the clutch. Just simple power on wheel spin. Most of the Honda guys can't even fathom such an idea as spinning the tires without trying to.

tell him it has nothing to do with hp...but everything to do with torque. Then flame his ass for being harder to understand than a FOB trying to type English.

Tell him he obviously doesn't have an education, cause he doesn't know how to use punctuation.

he was just talking shit. ever heard of it? where you just attack the other person fervently and sometimes nonsensically for any or no reason whatsoever? here it is-

i was just talkin about u not everyone on the whole goddamn planet
he's just talking to YOU. no one else. he doesn't care if 117 hp civics or 60 hp metros can break tires loose. he doesn't care if you can! all he cares about is talking shit. obviously he isn't very good at getting his point across but it doesn't matter.

and vtecnology had a good point too.

I have an auto, and can spin 1st and 2nd.... but I have like over 400HP at the flywheel, and prolly 500ft/lb of torque

Damn automatics! always breaking!
