Street Racing

Bio. I Respect your opinion. and totaly understand.
street racing is wrong. especially when it indagers other lives.
But, guns can be used for good at times. we do our activity for the sport and the bonding of it.
Like PhiAlpha mentioned, we are grown adults with some common sense.
I will not ever, ever want to indanger my life or other people. When We get together to do our little sprints,
we take all precautions. Thats why it happened at night. In a closed road..
Our window oppertunity for the closed road was limited.
Nobody was around, just us. 2 cars ..
I am not that crazy. I love my life. I have a family and kids. If you really get to know me you will find that I am alot more conservative than you think to believe.

The car was a sl600 with a Rentech Package. The guy with the car is a very know person. If you lived here in town you would know him or know of him by his name due to his Resturants.
I havent had my car dynoed yet so i really dont know where I'm at. to my knowledge the Rentech Package is equiped with 625hp and over 700lb or tourge.
I myself thought it would be alot closer race. It really suprised us of the outcome.
 
WWHHHAAAAAAAA !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OMG you all whine so much....its not like he was in your neighborhood...and I am 100% sure there is SOMEONE driving like that RIGHT NOW in YOUR 'hood, go bust there balls awhile and stop being the internet police....

We all know it’s wrong, we all know it’s dangerous, do you really think you will be able to win this debate? Even if you say it 10000000000000000000000 times?

Let it go and everyone will be a lot happier.

Oh yeah good race, (crappy vid :biggrin: ) like I said way back on page one....you should have no problem with a SL

I saw someone posted that their CTSC was close with an SL and there for you should be about the same....whom ever that was, go ride in a turbo NSX...it is night and day from a CTSC

glad to see you got that car running...how did your oiling work out?

LOL.
Miamie.. you got ways with words..
you got to love it.

Jess fixed the oil problem. No sump pump. He mounted the turbo
as close as you possible can next to the top of the trunk of the car.
He also put a filter, dampner, restrictor or something like that
on the pressure side of the oil line going into the turbo.
He got turbo about 2.5" above the oil pan turbo return line. Though the turbo is located about 2 foot away. everything is good so far.
we got about 1000miles on this kit so far.

you know, I have been members in a few Forums. The problem with this Forum is, Some of members here dont know when and where to put their 2cents in. They dont know the meaning of Respect for others. May our actions be wrong or right, rightous or stupid, We did no harm to you. Just because other members here dont like what they like, ( don't follow in their lifesyle ) They throw in their opinion. I graduated form Elementry School decades ago and believed that I left the name calling and sarcasm behind. You may like apples and I may like oranges, comon guys really. It is your fantsy. I am not a bad guy I dont believe. Let me enjoy my life the way I want, be it wrong or right.
I know a few members here personally. I also welcome anyone who wants to come down to Savannah to just simply hang out, talk about girls and cars.
This Forum is about cars. NSX. There was no regulations about posting street racing here I believe. Just Spamming.

Anyhow. The next contender will be a 2006 Dodge Viper Supercharged with Methonal injection. claimmed power is 760rwhp. & 800lb of tourge.
This video I promise will be better. I dont believe I will beat him, but he called me out . again this is just for the sport of it ( in my opinion ) so who cares

How much HP is your Car?
 
Not that I am endorsing this or not, but like what Ski_Banker said, the world is not black and white. There is a lot of gray area, not everything is cut and dry. You guys should think about it. You guys are making that it is a definitely rule. The rule you guys are preaching is when you race you die or kill someone else. Thats not always the case. Is it possible? Yes definitely but I think I have more chance of getting sideswiped by driving in Brooklyn on my daily grind then getting whacked by street racers who drive fast on the highway. If you have ever driven in Brooklyn, New York, everyone have no patience, they cut everyone off, they run red lights, they talk on the cell phone while driving. I even got front ended once!! ( they backed in the front of my car as they saw a parking space open up and they didn't even bother to look back ).

Marc,

Is this related to the topic? where is the post? It is perfectly fine if you dislike a mod, personal grudges against a mod is a little bit silly (pardon me if I picked the wrong word, 100% self taught bad English, taking my first grammar class tomorrow just for pleasure, hope I can handle it:smile:). I didn't see anything in this thread. I did a search and can't come up with anything.

If someone actually posted that their CTSC is close to SL. It is not necessarily false. You know our car well enough.

If you just want people to tell you that turbo is faster, sure, it is. It is a more advanced mod. Night any day difference, depending on which turbo NSX and how much boost it is running. Power is power. All else being equal, the NSX with better power to weight ratio will have better accerlation every single time, there is no argument with that.

Speed is no doubt addictive, more is usually not enough after you get used to it. However, from a consumer stand point, there are many aspects one have to consider before deciding which mod direction to go, how much hassle, how much one willing to spend, how long one willing to wait, where they live, how much power they really need, etc.

Stock SL500, SL550, SL55, maybe even SL600. Any NSX with 350+rwhp (ragardless what form of power mod) and weight 3000lb or less is enough to match it. I never had an encounter with SL55/SL600. However, I absoutely have no problem with stock 03+ E55s. it have better power/weight ratio than SL55s.

This is the speed of the turbo NSX running low boost that beat the SL600 in this thread. Far from night any day, not until he crank it up, at his current boost level maybe even a tiny bit slower than an nsx with 2791lbs and merely just 371rwhp:wink:. The lovefab in car video is an example of night and day.

We really honestly dont know how much power we have.
We were using other vehicles to guage us.
A buddy of mine has a GXR-1000 and he just mutilated us.
Though we were only running 10lbs at the time.
Then the RSX , Then the mercedes.
Carter racing is haveing a dyno day this comming up sat.
AT the same time there is a Honda-Tech course at Carter Racing also.
I am not really sure if Jess wants to reveal our numbers at the moment.
Carter Racing has a 2003 Zo6 single turbo that they have been hinting to run.
We believe thier numbers are 585Rwhp and over 600lb tourge.

We are trying to make plans on going to a track in the next couple of weeks.
I got a set of Mickeys 26.5 x 11.5 x 16.
Hope I dont break nothing.

Supra, I have NO IDEA why you always think I have a dislike for a supercharger.....I actually have a Dinan supercharger on my 4.6 X5....
I like ALL FI... Please, get this out of your head, I do not dislike the SC systems for the NSX....I do like some more than others but who doesn’t?

PLEASE stop with these posts every time I post something. I don’t know where your strong opinion of me came from, but it is not the case. I was not bashing anyone’s mods……

I was just stating that the owner who felt that his car with the SC was getting killed by the SL....probably has not ever had the chance to ride in a Turbo'ed NSX, and that he should. I actually remembered the post as him saying he was close but upon further review he states

“My CTSCd 02 gets killed down the back straight at Mosport by the SL65 with an inexperienced driver in the M.”

As far as what post I am referencing, it was made by BioBanker, #16

I have no idea why you seem to have decided that I am "ANTI SC" as that is not the case. I just hope to maybe have people look at BOTH options and make a decision for themselves as there seems to me, a large number of "anti-turbo" members on this forum.
I have said many many times that I feel the turbo is a better choice for the car, but that doesn’t mean that I don’t appreciate and have respect for the other options.
When someone posts, “should I get a ****** or ******?” with out a doubt, until very recently everyone said ONE choice, the CTSC, because this is what most had experience with. I have always said turbo, this is because I feel it is money well spent and I hope that with more people doing turbos more people will learn about the car and there will be more advancements in that department. We had SC for what, 10 years and it didn’t really increase the level of understanding of the car, for most people anyway.

There have also been Turbo’ed NSX for about 10 years now but just recently they have started to become “accepted” which has created a whole new push for development and pushing of the car.
It used to be amazing if you were pushing 500hp in an NSX, now its almost common place.
Everyone had these feelings that 400hp on a stock unsleeved block was the limit, we have found that that’s not the case…..there is another thread going about how much power stock rods can hold, the rule of thumb has been 600hp, yet no one has ever bent one with FI. I bet, that if the NSX world only was SC, we would never know, or need to know these limits.

I like them both, they both do what they are required to do, and both are safe. One is not “simpler” than the other. Each have there limitations…. I am just baffled why you always make these comments about me……..please, just give it a rest as you are mistaken. If anything it seems as though you dont like the Turbo option...??? Your always posting with the light weight numbers of your car and the SC numbers.....blah blah blah :)

GL on the english, i am sure you will be fine.


My apologizes for the direction this has taken the original post….

Let’s see some more videos….

Yeah, my car gets killed by that monsterous boat down the back straight. It is not even close. You're also right that Ive never been in a Turbo'd NSX. I WOULD LOVE TO HAVE A TURBO NSX. I want. I want. I want. I dont need a ride to know I want one.

I have three issues keeping me from one:

1) I need to pass emmissions every two years, with sniffer.
2) I have ZERO tollerance for reliability issues.
3) I do not have the time to dick around with tuning issues.

Uninstalling the autorotor CTSC is somewhat of an issue too, but not a big one. So, right out of the gate, even though I lust for the turbo power, and I so desperately want a turbo NSX, I think that it would be the wrong choice for me. My car is a daily driver (9 mos of the year) and if I cannot rely upon it, I would quickly hate it.

Let me know if there is a way around emissions and I may figure out the rest.

Bio, i respect those issues, but really the only one that is an issue is the sniffer....other than that it would be the exact same as what you have now...it would take a few days to pull yours off and put on a turbo, but after that it should be just like what you have...as long as you dont play with it all the time :)

FWIW i think Scorp is working on a cat. converter for his turbo andf i am thinking i might try and do the same tihing for my next setup..

GO GREEN....QUICKLY :biggrin:
 
If there is a way of passing emmissions short of sending the tester hookers day after day every second year, I would almost certainly be game. I care not about being green, but I need it to keep it licensed.
 
Dependablility to me comes first aswell.
I do admit my car has not been a daily driver. though Lately these past couple of weeks it has been. The tunning is the key. with asperatic temperature change It only takes a second to run lean and blow your engine.
We have been very carefull, paying extra attention to the knock sensor.
If I didnt have a dependable tunner who lives 30 minutes away, I would be in your shoe's Bio.

Marc,

Yes, I admit I had some misconceptions about you regarding anti-sc. You just put it to rest for good with the clearification you posted. Please do the same for me regarding turbo. I am not anti-turbo. Never was, never will.

I thought the SL during the run and discussion was SL600 not SL65, that caused some confusion for me. I apologize for misunderstanding your statement. You said in the past "It is only what you make of it". It had been one of most useful phrase, just that sometimes I still get carried away.

I like the turbo options way more than SC in general. It is a fact, however, application wise, it is not possible for me to say that it is always absolute due to various aspects that needs to be considered. Does that sound reasonable?

I have had two turbo cars that I enjoyed. I have my mind set on a used 335ci or new 135i within this year and most definitely R35 GTR or something equally as fast before I get too old. The choice of SC on NSX is an extremely unique case. While I never had problem passing smog with turbo car regardless of mods, my heart had sinked countless times after being pulled over, when I get pulled over you are at cops mercy. This was just one of none performance related deciding factor for the direction I went. Nevertheless, lovefab, hp wasn't available at the time. I definitely don't have to own something to appreciate or acknowledge its advantage over another product. If I like something better to a point that I have to have it, I buy it and sell the old one.

Started the first grammar class today to turbocharge my ability to write and improve comprehension. I find it enjoyable being able to actually learn instead of struggling trying to catch up and just get by. I expected to see a bunch bottom enders/losers in class today even though it is among one of more respectable Universities in America. I am a bit amazed as most of the students taking the course are grad school and phd students who are acadamic overachievers in their field.

There are a lot of terminology I heard for the first time in my life today, such as: determiner, preposition, run on sentence, auxiliary verb, modal. Not too incrediblely hard once someone explain it once or twice. Just takes time and practice from this point on.

NSX vs. 2005 ZX 600 Ninja 636
Suppositly it's the fastest of the 600cc bikes.
we are going to do a 50roll and a 70 roll.
Hope we can Hang.
 
this is you and bike

Its for the thrill.
I am not running from a dead stop.
I would get creamed definately.. We did a 50 roll and a 70 Roll.
This way it eliminates driver error.
I was only able to borrow a 600RR 2007 Honda.
I believe the come with 106hp, 48tq and the weight is 427lb.
I will post the video here shortly.
Please, when we race. Due to the fact it is my car, I take all precaution.
you will not see spectators like that on the video above. I have lived here all my life and have connections on a road. So the risks are to a minimum.
the orignal 600r ninja was sold before I could borrow it.
so, the Honda had to do.
 
do the math. power to weight ratio and aero dynamics. You're still going to get creamed. Unless you're planning on going over 160 then you might have a chance. those bikes tend to top out about 165 with a 220lbs rider. In my eyes it's plain STUPID. I think you would have a better shot if you added race fuel and bumped the boost up to 14lbs. I'm looking forward to the video though. Don't blow a h/g!
