this is just total bullshit. this is you trying to cop out (after your homosexual accusations didn't win you the argument) because you're starting to realize that you personally don't have a leg to stand on. you don't even know what you're arguing about anymore do you? and wtf is a "beasteality"?

seriously, do you know anything about cars, or do you just come on here to show off the fact you drive a bmw? so far i've seen nothing but opinions (and weak insults) coming from you based on NOTHING tangible, and now you're trying to pull this bullshit off. so... according to this post you're admitting that a 240 can be made to beat an m3, but signal auto has to build it, and it will cost $20k. obviously we've all been told that an m3 was engineered from the ground up to a be a street legal race car off the lot. that's why that motherfucker costs $45k. one would EXPECT to put alot of money into a car that was originally MSRP'd at fucking $12k 15 years ago (which can now be had for less than $2k) to make it competitive. but it's still not $45k then. so you lose the "bang for the buck" argument as well. so you're just a fucking tool, no matter what way you look at it.

just step back and leave the arguing to the people who know what the fuck they're talking about.

you know i fucking hate when people give excuses as to why they're slower than expected. dude, you've run what you've run, speculation only makes you look stupid.

what type of clutch do you have? maybe you should just put slicks on it to get a good baseline.

Yes, I expect to beat my previous time. I dont have an LS1 though.

When did i speculate? I said I expected to beat it, but I never said my car is faster. I ran a 13.6. I have a 13.6-second car until I run faster. Running a 13.6 with problems that will hurt a cars performance, and then fixing said problems, I'm gonna be pretty mad if I dont run faster.

It's a LT1 that's basically my project/daily driver. It's nothing all that special, it's not really all that fast either, which is why I dont talk about it all that much.

ACT 4 puck sprung.

I had considered slicks, but I was afraid of breaking my stock rear end/vlsd/axles if I hooked harder than expected.

i dont know who told u that, but that is incorrect, the USDM E46 M3 was not built as a street legal race car... thats why they built the M3 CSL...
