Yes, my wife's minivan does fit the rules in your new class 100%......

Come on BS ... no "rules". Just TWO WORDS ... Power Tour.

Now you can continue here with all your BigSmoke(and mirrors) ....and talking-in-circles.

I will have to agree with another guy ... your posts DO bring a BigSmile to my face ..... with all your shuck-and-jive. ...

ARE YOU by any chance a politician ?

Dude, you need to take a look in the mirror .......The way you decide what a street car is as silly as the rules for your Fabulous Doc Fiberglass Mr. Potatoe Head Practical Pump Gas Drags Magical Mystery Power Tour.....I wrote that to make a point.......and you're too blind to see it and not smart enough to write a rebuttal..........You've done NOTHING to make your point but flap your jaws and try to belittle me with your silly "shuck-and-jive" and "smoke and mirrors" crap that you keep repeating because you have nothing else .........

I, and obviously, others, get tired of you constantly telling people that what they have and consider a street car, doesn't fit your definition.......

I hope you guys don't take what I'm saying as knocking Drag Week, because that's not how I meant it and I'd actually considered doing it this year, but I just couldn't afford to take the time off either......

I'm just jerking Mr. chain for constantly forcing his idea of a street car down everyone's throat that DON'T want to hear it........He has a right to his opinion, and so do we..........

Oh GEESE ....Big Squeeze !

I am not FORCING my idea of what a street-car should be ... but what they do on that POWER TOUR is the ultimate test ... if there are doubts of whether or not a car is truly STREETable or not.

YOU do what YOU want to-do ... and carry-ON with your writings .....I still DO get a BigSmile out of your rants !

Like i posted before, this site sure has a lot of haters on it.

---

Yep, it's amazing. Some of the guys preaching about how everyone should build, use, and enjoy their cars have never even posted any info or pics of their own cars. Do they even have cars? And I'd have to hit the lottery to beat the snot out of my 9 second street car 7 days a week. Most the time it's on jackstands with a car cover over it but I sure do enjoy it when the time and money are there. And yes it's more of a race car with plates and mufflers but I'd drive a ProStock on the street occasionally if I had one.

---

im assuming this post is directed at me...i guess you have to post "info and pics" on here to be part of the crowd eh? LOL..dont take such offense..although its funny because in an earlier post you said you could drive your car more but you dont because you cant handle it for long periods, and now your saying you cant afford it? which is it really? your car looks like its up to snuff for street duty from what ive read about it, but you dont seem to think so as much...its soo funny to see everyone get all offended and tied up in a knot about this...everyone is entitled to their opinion,and that means me too my own father has a car that performs similar duty to yours, so im really not bashing...just stating what i think a street car is, not how to build one (i think the op hit it on the nose when he said only the chev guys can do this- seems like the mopar guys just wont have it for a variety of reasons lol)...ill stop now before i hurt anyone elses feelings ...ill be sure to start posting more "info and pics" on here so i can feel cool and believed

and another nothing-but-fluff post by ........this is pretty funny.......

You are forcing your idea......Here's where I'm getting this;

Interstate driving would not be a very pleasant experience for more than 30 or 45 minutes w/ 4.10 gears and 4" exhaust. CHIP

---

NOT pleasant ? .. then that is not much of a street-car IMO.

---

Your post added NOTHING and has NOTHING to do with this thread.........

Why do you think I'm ranting? because I tell it like it is and you can't handle it? You don't think I was laughing when I wrote the rules for your powder puff racing class???

Quote:

---

So I will ask this question again from my earlier post since no one answered it. Do chevy owners have more money,more grit,more determination,more time off,less excuses,better jobs,and faster cars?

No Mshred, mostly directed towards Doc, but your pics and info are always welcome.

Carry on, opinions are so entertaining.

So I am a "hater" ? ... for expressing MY opinion ?? ... ....

And to the BigSneeze ..... ...

There's nothing wrong with stating your opinion, in the right thread.......again , since you're having such a hard time comprehending this.......What you've posted has NOTHING to do with this thread and has no place in it......

In the "what's your definition of a street car?" threads.......post your opinion 'til the cows come home........

Quote:

---

And YOU BigSqueeze .. are beating-this-to-death

You saying that defining what a street car is ... ON a topic like this ....and it has nothing to do WITH the topic .... is showing your PURE lack of comprehension of ANY part of this topic.

STEP BACK from your keyboard ...and take a cold-shower ....

---

More useless and silly cut downs AGIAN because you aren't smart enough to make your point.....and you say I beat a dead horse??? I guess ignorance really is bliss.......

...and YES ... you PROVE THAT most every time you go to your keyboard. So you must be "in clover".

there was no potty mouthing in my post, but its moparts i guess i gotta watch out...never driven for an hour and half straight? um youd be surprised what we do...like i said the track is an hour and half/ 2 hours away and my friends drive their cars there, on the highway, with at minium 4.10 gears, screaming, and even still hammer it on each in high gear...i love how people think its my age...you think that i HAVE money at 20 years old? I think that is probably one of the most uneducated statements ive heard of all time- how many 20 year olds do you know with deep pockets? (and no, i dont get any financial help before you even go there)all the money that goes into my car is from a part time wage with only a couple months of full time in the summer...i have bills to pay too, but i wont get into those because im obviously too young for that right? so in reality, im just like every other "poor" racer out there...that doesnt mean though that im going to tippie toe around driving it everywhere- if stuff breaks, you fix it, and if you have to wait to get the money then so be it...All im saying is plain and simple dont go around boasting my car is a street car when you cant even run it on pump gas or for more than a half hour because its too loud this, or it overheats that...the impracticality of these cars as street cars is what makes them so flippin cool! and as for roadtrips like the power tour or drag week, if you can drive your car there and enjoy it kudos to you! like i said these cars are meant to be driven, and driven damn hard! for anyone who disagrees with me i could care less, because i have a hell of a good time doing this stuff with my cars and my friends...you only live once, so live flippin fast!

So....you are out pounding on a T5 5-speed behind a 340 and really raising hell. I must not hook up or make much steam I'm assuming? It's all goo fun to have a fast daily driver (aka my old '76 Valiant 408/4-speed/4.10 winter beater) but it gets old tearing stuff up and having to fix it all night just to get to work. There is a time and a place for practical and impractical cars. If I want to drive my hotrod 168 miles over the mountain pass to my brother's house for a visit I've got my eye on the oil psi and watching out for the cops because it's LOUD. For me the trip is much more enjoyable in something that is not deafeningly loud and enjoy a mellow ride. My 4.30 geared Charger and I have been on quite a few 200+ mile trips and I did enjoy them, but after a while I'd like to be able to answer my phone without having to pull over and kill the motor. It it a street car? Hell yes tagged and insured! Is it my preferred mode of transportation for a road trip? Nope. I guess it all depends on what you get out of driving your hotrod. For me I have a 500" 4-speed pounder sitting on MT ET Streets for thrill rides and a little black top action on the side. Next to that is a Sweptline PowerWagon for mountain adventure and hauling dirt. Next to that is a full size luxo-barge for cruising along with my honey tucked up next to me. Like I stated above, it all depends on what a person wants to do...I prefer multiple vehicles for multiple uses so I don't tear up my hotrod driving up a rocky mountain road.

Even with purpose built vehicles I still break enough parts. Dragweek would be awesome but given my line of work (aka STRESS) I don't need to get high on my vacation, I need to come down. 'Not going to happen with 3.5" exhaust and 4.30's!
