josh817 Posted May 8, 2009 Author Share Posted May 8, 2009 ^ Another hilarious clip. I'll look on youtube. Its part of the PINKS tv show where the dudes balancer comes off and he races anyway... http://videos.streetfire.net/video/PINKS-Got-Balancer_204414.htm ^Google search provides. I still don't know why everyone went nutso about it. Why not just put it back on and do it again instead throwing a fit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thrustnut Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 I have two things to say... first off its a fox body Mustang, everyone I have ever known with one of those is about as smart as a box of rocks but thinks there car is the fastest thing on four wheels. And second, boy am I glad my engine is internally balanced! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not saying you're wrong, but that's painting with a wide brush IMO "The members of HybridZ pride themselves on the friendly, open atmosphere in the forums.

AkumaNoZeta Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 I would have ran it too. Either way you lose and the other person gets your car so you might as well run it so its kinda like a farewell to the car you put so much time and money in, and also so you give your competition a peice of s**t instead of a race-ready car.

josh817 Posted May 8, 2009 Author Share Posted May 8, 2009 I think what surprised me was how quickly the motor blew but then again they are beating those things up each pass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BirdmanZ Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 That shift light was on more than it was off. Over-rev might have killed it rather than the damper being off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AkumaNoZeta Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 I don't like the show, but I have a friend that loves it so I've seen a few episodes. To me, the fact that they let another person have so many car leads than the other is completely wrong. The way I see it, you race to see if your car is faster. End of story. You shouldn't be like "I can beat you if you let me start 50 feet in front of you" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You shouldn't be like "I can beat you if you let me start 50 feet in front of you" Yah dude, I saw a clip where this dude asked for 8 lengths, beat the guys. Then they come back to negotiate for the second race and he asks for 13 lengths and everyone is standing there going dude.... you just beat us by 4 lengths... His reasoning was "I was spinning the whole time". Everyone was still baffled with how ridiculous he was. He looked like a guido too.

AkumaNoZeta Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 Sorry if I offended anyone by insulting a mustang owner. I am a Mustang owner but I didn't take offense. I know I'm stupid, but I don't act like I know everythig or tell everybody my car is the fastest around...in fact I tell people its a rust bucket with a stock 2.3 ltr, and you'd be surprised how many people actually believe it. But the know it all attitude with the self-deciet of thinking their car is the fastest around isn't just a Mustang thing, I've noticed it with all kinds of different vehicle owners so I take it as a "general public" thing instead of accusing a certain group of it. One of the reasons I love being on this forum 24/7 is because the people here dont have that attitude. The kind people here are open minded and very informed.

It's hard to think your cars faster than everyone elses when you have examples like RIPS and his RB30 monster, and others with V12's shoved under, plus that monster dragster Z with it's on R200 motivator poster Add as many examples as you wish Anyone on here that thinks their car is faster than anyone elses would tend to be someone with enough work in the car to deserve to feel like it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
