firedawgs Posted July 1, 2005 Share Posted July 1, 2005 I went to the track two weekends ago. My buddy dv8ingvector ran a 14.66 bone stock 5EAT. It was a humid 82degree day there. A reaction time under .5 is good, your -.22 is disqualified if were for real. But even though your 60 time is great (anything under 2 secs). Your 1/4 time is great to for the car. I missed it. You have a manual right? Updated my vBGarage: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest *Jedimaster* Posted July 1, 2005 Share Posted July 1, 2005 Not to start a rant, but I think racial jokes, etc are funny. The ones about my race are too- I just don't think it needs to be that serious. It's like the "attack" on the African American in Howard Beach recently. They called it a racial issue when the guy was there trying to steal and got a beat down that was coming to him. All that being said, you may now refer to me as Whitey the blue eyed devil- I can take a joke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LegacyTwin Posted July 2, 2005 Author Share Posted July 2, 2005 car manual, i know that -.22 will disqualify me my goal was not to get the tree right, it was to get the best 1/4 mile, i had one reaction time of 3 seconds with a 14.6 1/4 mile time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhilT Posted July 2, 2005 Share Posted July 2, 2005 As a Brit, I may get offended if anyone was to call me a "limey" also. Is calling an American a "Yank" offensive to anyone here ?

Tripod Posted July 2, 2005 Share Posted July 2, 2005 And a lot of black people call each other nigger, and they don't get offended when they call each other that, but if someone of another race does, it's a whole different story. So some "rednecks" might not mind it, but many others might. "yank" is a term for Americans in general not a derogatory term describing a "white American" with southern or country background. So I guess we can all start referring to Mexican's as "wetbacks" on this board. And African Americans are, of course, "niggas" or "ghetto brothas", or just "boy". We'll now officially start referring to Asians as "jinks" or "slant eyes" If you are from the Middle East...let's make it "A-rabs", or we could just call them terrorists, or "towel heads" And why stop at race, let's get derogatory and offensive based on sex too. Women are "bitches" or should we just call them "hoes", "sluts", or "cunts"??? Matter of fact...let's make it a free for all on the derogatory, offensive name calling and race/sex labels. The administrators and moderators have absolutely shown that, that kind of talk is perfectly acceptable on this board, due in fact that calling a white person with southern/country origins a "redneck" is perfectly okay since it has yet to be deleted, even after repeated reporting and asking kindly to delete it. I'm down for the labelling and name calling, but let's make sure we are "playing fair" and if we are going to allow some, allow ALL names and racial derogatory labels to be used. In the name of EQUALITY, of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luminati Posted July 2, 2005 Share Posted July 2, 2005 *senses a thread closing comming on* *RANT* yep, this will be clsed, but not without everyone chiming in and giving their .02 cents. Agreed, name calling is immature, and there will always be double standards to this. But the people who complain about how something offends them just askes for more. I personally don't agree with how political correctness is used. Okay, noone wants to be called names, but dang, THEY ARE ONLY WORDS!!!!!! GROW UP!! *END RANT* So, back to topic, nice times for the heat, anyone know what the lEgacy is supposed to do in the 1/8th? Cause thats the only track i know of that is close to me. - Luminati Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How is it you can "understand" one race getting upset if people call them "niggas" "niggers" "negros" or whatever, but not if another race gets upset at a racial term slung at them? Seems kind of....racial doesn't it? Again, point is...if you find it acceptable to use racial derogatory names with one race, you MUST be fair and find it acceptable to use them with all. Unless of course, you support inequality and division among races and people. You might find it okay for you (or others) to call a "white" person a "redneck" but then you better well be prepared and accept someone calling you a "nigger" or anyother racial slur that describes your heritage and way of life and not gets upset in the least.

XTOUTBACK Posted July 3, 2005 Share Posted July 3, 2005 I find it strange that someone in California (Tripod) is offended by the term Redneck. I have lived in the South my entire life and have never heard anyone offended when called a redneck. As was stated earlier, it is more of a point of pride than anything else.
