This pot is going to Jim if he runs better than a 15.300 in his car in "street trim" with an N/A setup. This way he is not doing it for respect, but to earn "easy" money. If you want to chip in post it up as well as the amount.


Pot:
WiggiE - $20
Frosty - $5
Cavman- $50
WWOBD - $100

Total=$175

how's that? what would be the point? respect? who the hell cares. it's fairly obvious that i don't need the money...if you look at other threads you will realize how everyone criticizes me for not coming to meetings and all. the reason is simple: i work a job for money and that is satisfying enough for me. believe what you want and keep the pot going if you like. this is pretty humorous to me.

I've known jim for a while now, and it's not his style to say something he hasn't or can't do. Also, I don't believe he brought this to anyone's attention, it looks like someone dug it out of the database, not from him throwing it up on the board. What, did you think he was trying to pull a fast one on you?
no one's contested me running a 14.8, i wouldn't look at my car and believe that, but you jump all over him for doing it..
no one doubts that brock ran a 13.8 with basically a stock car...

on the whole, my car is a 15.0 average, if I had to guess, i'd say on average jim's car is a high 15's to very low 16's car.

One time it gel-ed for him, and you're going to pick at it? don't you have something more constructive to do? Hell, if i wanted to, i could pick at just about any one of you guys that i want... so what... that doesn't make my car any faster or my cock any longer... goddamnit, most of the people on the board are college age or older, fucking act like it

and damn you all for making me stoop to this mud slinging :)

you probably didn't know who was in the jetta that night we all raced on the interstate but it was me. i know for a fact that your car is fast from personal experience. not to mention the fact that respectable and trust worthy people have told me before hand. the jetta runs low 15's stock so you're saying the sol runs with the jetta. come on man.

Hell, if i wanted to, i could pick at just about any one of you guys that i want... so what... that doesn't make my car any faster or my cock any longer...

I've seen both of you run those times. But if you posted a 14.0 then I'd question it.

on the whole, my car is a 15.0 average, if I had to guess, i'd say on average jim's car is a high 15's to very low 16's car.
So your car averages about .2 seconds from your best time. But Jim's car averages about .8 seconds from his best time??? I don't think so. You can't just pray to the car gods or suck someones dick to run fast in the 1/4.

One time it gel-ed for him, and you're going to pick at it?
I'm not picking at it...I just want some solid facts to back it up. We even made a pot so that he has an actual reason to run at MMP now. Come on, if I made this same offer to you to run a 14.95 or better wouldn't you take me up on it?? I didn't set a date, I left it an open ended offer.

Hell, if i wanted to, i could pick at just about any one of you guys that i want
I'm ready for it anytime you are!


When we ask Jim about most things he always goes around the facts and never shows any proof. All I want is a little proof of his timeslip. If I asked you to cough up your 14.8 second run, I bet you would have it on hand to post up.

Hmmmmm......maaaybe, YOU!!! :poke: Mike, here is the bottom line. The sol is faster than the cavalier stock and now you can't understand how it could be faster after mods. Come on, this isn't brain surgery or rocket science. Look at the numbers. These are the facts. If this is something that you just can't (or won't ) acknowledge, well no skin off my back. This is your problem, not mine. However, I will say this one last time. I will post the slip. Until then, I will not waste anymore of my time on this subject.

Jim, what exactly are your perfomance mods that take your car from the 15.8 in stock form to the 15.2 that you are able to run now. I dont know, but would love to know cause I am running with the D series too. Your car is faster than mine. I have no problems saying that, but I just want to know what you have to get that time. thanks

Linuxman51: I think the main reason why everyone is so quick to doubt Jim, is because they don't know him and they have never seen him run.

No one questions your 14.8, because some people on this board were there when you ran that. I was there and believe me, running 14's was the last thing I was expecting to see your car run. It was very impressive.

No one doubts Brock's 13.8 because we have all been watching the progress of his 1/4 times and it seemed very realistic.

Jim: If what andy said about your car running a 15.8 stock is true, then I could believe that with the right mods and having it stripped out like mother fucker, a 15.2 is not too hard to beleive.

I remember hearing that you don't have some of the stuff on your car that you had a while back. What kind of mods did you have when you ran the 15.2? and do you still have them all?

Well, thanks for at least being civil in this matter. It's not like this was something that was accomplished overnight, but over the course of years. The first thing I did was the intake. I was given an intake off of a friends 93 Integra GSR. It didn't fit perfectly, but hey it was free so I made it work. I extended it to make it a CAI. Next I picked up a DC header and dropped the car with Intrax springs. Exhaust was still a little to pricey for me, so i went will the next logical thing. With the help of Sam and some from Kenny too, we were able to come up with a semi-decent design. Once funds were available I went with a GReddy system. I believe it is the same as the ones for the 92-95 hatch. Unfortunatley, speed bumps got the best of me and now the exhaust stops under the seats. :cry: I had a friend that worked for Honda and picked up a complete head and intake manifold from him for 100 bucks. He ported and polished both and later on I sent the cam off for work. JUN will do this, but expect to pay dearly for it. Looking back, I probably should have gotten one from somewhere else for two reasons. 1) the cost would have been much lower. 2) people would not doubt it and give me a bunch of shit. :wink: I then went after a new clutch after mine blew to bits on the way to work one morning. I went with a ClutchMasters stage III and lightened flywheel. McConnell Honda here in Montgomery did the work with little down time. :) The rest is really, timing and tuning. Ditch unneeded weight here and there, mess with the fuel, advance the timing, experiement with different plugs, wires, coils. Just little stuff. Also run in cool weather with a nice set of slicks.(I don't have any, so I borrowed them for a few runs from a friend) There is probably more that I left out, like suspension, which does make a difference, but I'm assuming you just wanted engine mods, right? Hope this helps and maybe even clears up a few things. :D

Right now I've got the Bridgestone Potenza RE-910's on there. 205/50/15
I've never run these tires before and as far as guessing goes, I have no idea.

if you dont launch high, you BOG THE SHIT out. there is no point to launch at 4 because you will bog badly. You have to launch high to get a good time and if you dont, you wont run a 15.2 in a del sol with a few bolt ons.

jsut to kinda look at jims perspective

he said he launched between 4 and 6

so he tried different levels to see what worked best

so what ... he tried 4... isnt that what is all about
trial and error....

so he went again and launched higher and higher till around 6

then at 6 or a lil above he ran a 15.2

plain and simple
its not like its engraved in stone

Except a few of us know, and this post has already been brought up in this disucssion that:
"That is not the correct speed to launch at"...

Felix already stated that at those RPMS you will bog. So obviously his best runs probably did not come from those drop speeds.

So try it again.. What RPM's did you launch from on your infamous run?

Why is it I remember seeing your Del Sol run 17s? :shock: :?: :?: :?:

I dont want to take sides, and im not the most knowedgeable person here, nor do i know how to spell the word "knowledgeable" or how use a spell checker. But, 15.2 sounds a bit skeptical to me to. Why dont yall just take it to the track?

If he DID run 15.2 with slicks, what should he be able to run on street tires? 15.4? See if he can hit 15.4 on a nice, cool day.

Slicks are going to make more then two tenths of a difference. This thread is worn out fellas.

Nothing wrong with the 17s mark. That is what I am at, but you have to own your slowness, and openly admit it. I go to a SAH (slow as hell) meeting every week to keep me focused on the truth and what needs to be done.

It depends on what size slicks, and wether or not he knew how to properly use slicks.

how much time does a pair of slicks take off. .4??? .5??? or is there no way to estimate.

As far as the slicks are concerned....I don't know, they were not mine.

I won't deny ever running a 17. Do you think I don't remember some of my first times running? I will never forget your first time in the rx7. You sat there over the line for at least a minute or two. Everyone yelling for you to back up. God that was funny as hell. :wink: Look at you now, you run much better. Your reaction times are good and you have improved in every aspect of it. This all comes with practice, tuning and the process of trial and error.

Your reaction times are good

Reaction times don't do jackshit for your ET.

Reaction times don't mean shit to me unless I am in a grudge match. I don't normally even bother leaving the line till after the green light, because I am going for ET, not to beat the person next to me. So no, my reaction times are not that great normally, unless I try.

Getting better at drag racing doens't take a car from 17s passes to almost 15 flat.

You didn't even check the presure in them?



I agree with Cameron, this thread is useless, pointless, & a waste of bandwidth now. He's not going to run, you guys caught him in a lie... then end. :roll:

I don't know who you are thinking about, but I have all of my races on video with the RX-7. I did not pull up far enough to stage the first time I ever dragged raced.

That's funny, there is no way that you have your first time on tape. You went with Jason and me. We didn't have a camera on us, but that is beside the point. I'm not ragging on you...it was just funny. The only reason I even brought it up was for you to realize how much better you become with practice. So chill out!

I remember my camcorder, its was almost as heavy as me... so yes I had a camera.


Like you said thats besides the point, the point is you got caught in a lie and you want to do everything you can to beat around the bush. Anyone that was not lying would be out at MMP this Friday to make an easy $175. You can say that you don't have anything to prove all you want, and that you don't care what anyone here thinks. Everyone here with the exception of a few know your time is a lie. If you want people to drop it then remove it from the list, go and run a 17s pass.... I mean 15s pass or do the following:

I'll ask again. You didn't even check to see what presure they were running? :roll:

so you just threw the slicks on and went at it. thats sounds kinda like the kid that wanted naaawwzzz "big bottle" 2 of them!!!

felix: i offered to race him and he just sat there. if he runs what he says OR anywhere even close, then he should get up and leave me cause i run a 16.6 my first and only day at the track. but i just don't think he will. yeah he might beat me but it woudn't be that bad!

No, I didn't check the pressure in them. Shit the guy was nice enough to let me borrow them...checking the pressure was the last thing on my mind. I could have sworn that I said that this was a pointless thread on the first of now six useless pages. You didn't catch me in a lie, some of you just refuse to believe. Think it bothers me? Not at all. :lol: This was simply my best time, not my average or anything like that. You people get so worked up over nothing.
