It's ok Oleh, many USA muscle guys are the same way, it's not just ricers. It's all "car guys" that don't really know anything.
I've got a friend/bandmate that thinks his tacoma will out run my Z. He also owns a 69' charger that's been sitting for 5 years. He constantly says things to proove he doesn't know anything about cars. I'd surprised if he could do his own oil change. He keeps saying he's gonna put a 900HP high compression (he doesn't know it's high compression, I saw the catalog he was looking at) 440 in it and then put a blower on it and get 1600HP, cuz he saw someone in a mag do it.... I'm afraid he's gonna kill himself. Yea, lets take a 12:1 comression motor and try to put it beyond 20:1. Real smart.
He tries to tell me that factory challangers ran 11's back in the 60's. All because some mag took a "factory callanger" and ran 11's... I asked him "did they change anything?" he says "no" i say "NOTHING?!" and he says "well, the changed the tires & exhast. I asked him "does radial tire mean anything to you?" I went on to explain about how old tires suck major *** and exhast alone could mean a 5% increase in power. I told him that if the mag was really saying what he was saying, he should stop getting that mag.
Some people need to learn something on thier own. I'm getting sick of people who just believe what someone said and taking it as the untaintable truth. For example. I love mustangs. One of my favorite cars. Who wants to tell me the 03 cobra will run 12's stock? Cuz i've seen well over 50 run at the track. The only 12 sec cobra i saw were modified... Ok, so it COULD be the drivers. But fact remains, in most drivers hands, it's a 13 sec car. That kind of information isn't told, it's seen.
