I'm gonna try... I'm also considering going to watch the 25 hours of Thunderhill Enduro which is on the same day.
Unfortunately, I'm on deep "Evo Lockdown" with Evowife. So it is possible I'll miss both

Walnut Creet? I never heard of that place.

Mods - I thought you guys got rid of the trolls?
Naw, just the ones that don't entertain us j/k

but if you look at the user agreement carefully, you're the one who broke a rule (personal attacks, i.e. you are an idiot). I do agree with you that making references to another man's genetalia is far more out of line, though, but it takes the better man to stop.

The guy was obviously trolling, and both posts could be interpreted as personal attacks, so who broke the rules first? Also, I'm not sure calling someone an idiot is a personal attack if the person is BEING an idiot.

HAHAHA walnut creek, it's the gayest place on earth, i went to school there. thank god i left that piece of suburbia heaven and stepped into the real world.

all you that got **** to talk about robi, i watched with my own two eyes as he worked on his car from the night before until he put that beast back on the trailor. for a car that was being changed up all day and was still in need of fuel system upgrade he drove it hard and that deserves all the wrinkles on those tiny nuts of yours walnut creek *****. every other car out there sang all day long including mine, and keep in mind robi's car was running much better before the time trial, battling with kent's car all freezing ****ing day long. y'all need to put a dick in those mouths and come see tha **** for your damn self. y'all make me ashamed to be from norcal, fockers.

oh i also just realized the obvious, you robi, super racer, got beat by someone that's been driving for 6 months, and has less mods than ur car. so by trashing smoggie's car you're also trashing your own car..

If so, he edge out smoggies street car (with RA1s on stock rims) by .2 seconds. Kent drove really well from what I heard. Came in first overall. Smoggie's car came in 2nd. Robi's car came in 3rd, some 1.4s behind, IIRC.

shiv
No aftermarket aero and no lexan, Shiv. You should do a complete mods list compiled from both owners, although I'm not sure what you're trying to get at.

It's not all about the driver, but a track only racecar is not inherently faster than a daily driven street car. That's a generalization. Does this mean you're coming to the next EOC-type event to drive your race car and have a good time with everyone, fast or not?

Robi made no claims as to his car going faster, him being a super racer, or that smoggie's car was a pos (I assume what you mean by "trashing"). He specifically stated that he placed third and that he had some problems with both his car AND his timed runs (you only got two hot laps for the time trial session at the end of the day). Further, he was self-depracating in regards to not upgrading his fuel system sooner (part of his car problems), so I'm not sure where you're coming from. Anyone that was at the event like I was could tell you that Robi's car was sputtering like **** every time he got on it in third gear (kind of an important gear in an Evo, on Streets of Willow) and that he was having serious rubbing issues with some new wheel/tire combos that he was trying out at the event. He was trying to get his car solid so that he could compete in the EvoM Tuner Time Attack.

How is Robi pms'ing? He was disagreeing heavily with Shiv's comments, but making good points. EDIT: Thought better of the PMS comment.

Excuses, excuses. That's the usual story from losers and this event has shown to be no different. Whining about this and that. Whether it was a driving school event or not there was timing equipment. Someone was taking the liberty to keep track of times. The one with class here is Paul, who has remained silent even after proving he's got skills after the snide remarks before and after the event. He let his skilled driving do the talking, no excuses about the car, unfamiliar track, weather, etc. That's class. He was serious enough to hop on a plane to come play. IIRC it was Pauls first time ever at Willow Springs and for him to turn out the impressive times he did in someone elses unsorted car and on someone elses turf speaks volumes. Paul good luck next weekend at the 25hr enduro.

if thats the case then what about Kent J, competing against a PRO driver !!!
with less hp then what smog's car has . Funny thing is that Smog has been part of the EOC events before and know one care to mention anything since we were all there to have fun. As soon as his car shines (because is tune by VISHNU ) you guys are making a big deal about it. Time equipment is provided to see how much you improve and not guessing. Its a driving school and not a wheel to wheel racing. IMO if Vishnu wants to compete and stop making excuses bring the shop car to an event and go against Robi, Marks car GT40 (with OTTO driving the car ) and Kent and John M. and let the times speak for themself .
We will see what times are run at this Evo shoot out event, this should be interesting.

Then Kent's got talent. He also beat down cars that have thousands of more money and time into their cars than Smoggy. What a shame. I comment here, but there are other forums which you are aware of where whinners cry at in the comfort of their lemmings. The only reason why some are bringing things to light is because of the past smack talking that was going on in other threads. If you've read and kept up with some of these in the various forums and threads you'd realize why some members are saying what they are. Some get it, some don't. Whinners always stand out and they always cry about the same thing over and over like a broken record.

IMO if Vishnu wants to compete and stop making excuses bring the shop car to an event and go against Robi, Marks car GT40 (with OTTO driving the car ) and Kent and John M. and let the times speak for themself .

Vishnu has got bigger and better events to compete in. Events like the 25hr enduro they compete in are more brutal to both car and driver. IMO, it's also a more rewarding move marketing and publicity wise. When Mitsubishi and publications like Car&Driver invite you to drive their car or compete in an event with them vs. going to an Evo only event with limit exposer. Well.... Shiv and Paul are probably gambling men to choose not to go to the latter. Let's see the payoff next week.

knower, i just simply like to point out that robi while talking **** about smoggies car, was only clowning on his own car's lack of performance on the track the other day. maybe if robi's car was running right i wouldn't be typing what i am. but since his super race car broke due to the fact, as you claim he hadnt upgraded his fuel system (according to scc he has bigger injectors, and a fuel pump tho, so...), i don't see how you have the right to even attempt to talk trash about Tom's car with Paul's driving, the latter of which i know has been done.

please prove me wrong robi, id love to be wrong here but i think you layed out the details nicely for me.

ps, trinadex... you must be hardcore, talkin like that online... why dont YOU grow up, i'm from walnut creek too. nor cal > so cal lol. i dont really care acutally i just wouldn't get all worked up over a city. everyone worked hard getting their car ready for that event, no one's denying that. rs13 must just like to stir shyt, don't generalize cuz of 2 posts.

I upgraded to the 255 months ago. It died trying to keep up with the latest round of engine mods. I'm talking about the REAL upgrade atRRE talk to Mike for the details.
