. How many 4th gens are trapping 98 n/a I haven't seen but one and he was on slicks like me.

good for you I'm so proud of you last time I looked you were stuck in the 15's with you wonderful VIM. I know its the weather and you car was messed up and you higher above sea level. Did I mention you were special. You join phatguy with your childish posts. I didn't see you nailing neal when he ran 13.999 with slicks. I was trapping 96 on my other runs off the slicks and all I have is intake and UDP. You go on with you bad self with your BUT IF 100+ traps.

The rims did nothing for him. The thing that helped was the little bit of traction they gave and optimum gearing from the 22" tall tires.

You had said you NEVER heard of a NA 4th gen running 98mph in the 1/4 mile without the aid of slicks. I proved you wrong and stated I went 97.79mph (close enough to 98mph). What's the big deal? Where in my posts am I "childish"? Please show me.

You ran a 13.9 which is damn good for a Auto, but dont be arrogant about it. A 13.9 isnt a real fast time in general.

In general to what exactly? That's a darn good time for a NA 2k2 automatic Maxima. I hope you're not saying that a 13.9 sec Maxima isn't fast compared to a Corvette Z06 for example. Then of course it's not that fast. You can't compare apples to oranges. Not sure if that's what you meant.

To tell you the truth I was pretty darn happy with my 14.33 @ 96.55 on street tires for my mods.

Blu,
Everyone knows you're an a$$hole - you just disguise it well
Of course I'm kidding. You are arrogant but it's a good thing. If you weren't you wouldn't have pushed so hard to break into the 13's.
There is something special about your car, though. I got 14.8 on the first run and had catastrophe after that. Never got to run when the track warmed up but don't think I'd have made a 14.3 even with my .718 R/T. Your runs were amazing at the track Friday. I have some video, but I don't think Carl got the 13.9 with the board lights. He did get the midpipe thing, I'm pretty sure.
Anyone that has met Matt will know he doesn't bullshiat - he's lowkey and he is arrogant if he needs to be. I like that combo better than a loudmouth.
It WAS a great night to be an Auto 2K2!
