Alright, tommorow I will be finishing up the last bit of my ecotec swap into my 2000 cavalier.
I will be running the 2.2 ecotec auto, with an intake, cat back, B&M shift plus, fg hood, and half the car is gutted out.
I am just wondering roughly what 1/4 time I should be able to lay down. I think mid 15's? The reason I ask is because
there is a rivalry between buddy of a buddy of mine saying his 1968 4 door 3 speed auto 307 chevelle is faster than mine on the quarter.
He is sayin with his gmeter (I dont know if those things are any accurate) he runs low 17's consistantly... seems really slow for something
that has a full exhaust, edel carb/intake mani, and a very mild cam... I would love to think I will be able to beat this guy and shut him up
(he thinks his chevelle is the most bad assed, fastest v8, 4 cyl destroyer in the world) because it would be SOOOOOO NICE!!!! Like he thinks he
can out race my buddies integra around an auto cross track... ya... im serious thats what he thinks...

theres his Chevelle as of spring.
We will be hitting the strip this friday or next friday to settle this old rivalry, but til than I just wanna know what people think.
had a blown ecotec swapped 2000 cavy, now just an 02 Grand Am, and a 74 BMW 2002...
My guess for you assuming you can drive at all.... 15.48
My guess for the "chevelle"........ 18.21
heh, well we got the ecotec in. The cat is plugged, and the o2 sensor is fried but wow does that ecotec ever scream! my lil stop watch test showed with tire slippage (cheap winter tires) around a 7-8 second to 60 mph run... that totally kills my old 2200 ohv
Looks like this friday I will be racin the chevalibu lol I will keep you guys posted!

4 doors + 307 = a good race for a toyota prius.
87 Firebird
All stock...........lol.
yeah see he told me a while ago before he had his g-meter that he raced a 280zx pushing 14 psi of boost and that he totally raped the guy with no ky jelly... Now he either literally raped the guy physically, or that guy with the 280 didnt even race him. Yet recently as I said, his g-meter said he does the quarter in 17.2... Now for a car running 14 psi of boost to lose to a 17 second car... somethin is up lol
Anywho he seems overly confident he is gonna destroy me which I keep thinkin he either is gonna run nitrous or somethin retarded but I doubt it...
Honestly, if my car even does high 15's I will be happy

Looking at his YouTube profile he plays WoW....
So even if you lose the race, your still coming out on top overall.
if his car is running 17's, then you should have him easy.
and i missed the whole autox thing. your buddy is a complete moron.

I would expect your car to run mid to high 15's. It sounds like it is time you help your friend out of the stuck on stupid stone age. You guys need to go to an autcross event and he needs to run his car. It will be a very humbling and eye opening experience for him.
FORGET GIRLS GONE WILD WE HAVE GOVERNMENT SPENDING GONE WILD!
Doesn't a stock eco run 16s with an auto? You should be able to have a nap at the end of the strip before he gets there.

Wait a minute....if you have a bad O2 and a plugged cat with an auto.... IM changing my guess for you to a 15.8 at the best LOL
And I have an accelerometer also... it's been sitting in the glove box untouched for over a year..... but it's pretty damn accurate down to a 100th of a second if used correctly....although I have a good one... what kind is he using? Mine cost $200 and I never use it LOL ( the G-meter can be fun to watch though)
A 4-barrel and intake mani arnt going to do much for that car with those stock heads....I think he's exaggerating.... he might be able to pull a 17.8 out of his ass maybbe... but I have doubts that the car can even burn the back tires.
ahahaha yes! The g.f. is gonna run her stock 5 speed eco against him too!!!
oh boy, i gotta video tape this!

why exactly do you think you need to videotape anything. like I told you before, your just as bad as him because you both won't let this go.
btw there Tyler, you need to renew your license before you can go race......
Vehicles must be 'Street Legal' with proper working muffler systems - and they must be properly registered and insured. All vehicles must meet IHRA safety regulations by passing a simple tech inspection before racing. Racers must have a valid drivers license and must wear a helmet with a rating of SNELL 90 or higher. Helmets are available to borrow for a $5 fee that goes towards purchasing more helmets. Cars, trucks, and motorcycles are all welcome.
as well...
The same timing and scoring system used for regular drag racing events is utilized for Secret Street - racers use the 'Christmas Tree' light system and receive time slips detailing reaction times and speed. The water box is open for use.
..... because we were discussing this last night
BS on cars having to be street legal to race at a drag strip LOL
Or is this some "class" your entering?
my car is running fine, the only thing that is wrong is the fact its running crazy rich.
Yeh yeh yeh, the drivers will be updated tommorow
and its secret street at the dragstrip in calgary, its run what you brung. They will allow you to run whatever you brought coco regardless if its equipped with nitrous, or anything else.

alright well since I cant seem to edit what I posted, I was out just a few minutes ago tryin to see how fast I can get going. I went by appx how fast I can get going in 17 seconds, and that was about 85-90 mph (somewheres over 140kmh). That was with my car full of crap, no shift kit, my car running really rich, and my tires chirping for about a second at 2500 rpm... Something tells me my car is not quite up to snuff yet....

I think my car hits that speed in 14 seconds flat lol...
And doing things like your doing isnt going to work.... you cant possibly time that accurately yourself...
You need precision timing equipment and a stopwatch doesnt count for this stuff...... believe me... I've tried..
And if there is one thing I've learnt about the ORG..... it's never mention that you've gone over the speed limit on a city or public road.... people will flame you to all hell for it even though there
hypocritical bastards that think we care what they think when they sit behind there keyboard telling us we're bad.
Another thing is never mention you smoke.... LOL
i absolutely love posts like this lol
*laughs*
well ya its nothing accurate, but eh I was bored lol
as for the speeding thing, I have you know it was on a backroad lol

*Sighs*
Back road doesn't matter it's still illegal as hell LOL
But Im not gunna give ya crap personally.... because I've gone at least 130mph on a back road before so im not one to talk (was years ago)
(and yes I realize I just did what I told you not to do)
So when is this damn race... I wanna see time slips.. already....
Ty and the guy with the chevalibu decided to postpone it. The chevalibu needs something done to it (or at least that's what I remember), and Ty wants to get his engine looked at and fixed before they go at it. So probably not until next friday.
you should destroy him
