I dont usally attack anyone and usually to stick up for someone, expecally when BigRed goes on a rampage.... but I agree with this one. Maybe you worded the whole thing a alittle wrong, instead of learn to race maybe learn to "drive" woulda been the right choice. but for what you actually said.... I must say

mitsubishi684:
That concept looks pretty damn good. I think I'll build my gsx out to that style. Imagine taking the 4th gen body of that concept (entirely) and putting it on my 2nd gen gsx. THAT would be mind blowing.

EMC 3000gt:
Something as simple as a single word, race or drive, that's what his stab is about?
That was worth posting? 2 words, and a cut none the less, over a single word discrepency?

Let's just let this one go. It's not worth continuing to waste database storage on. ;) I won't respond any further in regards to the trash talk.

Thanks!

anywho back on topic.i would take the evo x over a gsx by this time now.its the new technology the evo works alot better.besides it will also have the sst or a manual.now the sst will be like the vw cars.so it will have two trannys so trann one will have 1,3,5 gear and tranny two will have 2,4,6.so whenever the car is in 1 the second tranny is angaged but not doing what its supposed to until its ready to engaged fully.so there will be no power interruption between shifts.it may be faster then a person shifting the manual.better stability and for being in the 50k i really doubt they will go that high when subaru is selling for alot less.they will not just give that up to the competition.i think the evo x with the sst may be higher hell not even the MR goes that high or even an FQ.

You guys are missing the point, I'm not worried about the **** people that kill themselves, I'm worried about the innocent people on the road, women with children, little old lady's, new 16 yr old drivers etc. that could get killed for no reason at all besides the stupid people trying to race on the street, rather than going to a track.

It is what it is...people die everyday...And when is your time to go...nothing cant stop it. We as adults have to be responsible for our own actions so let's try to do things right. That's just my 2 cents... :57:

if people can see the whole picture not just the corner they will understand what might half in the aftermath of it all. I don't think that is going to happen anytime soon. Since people are only getting stupider like Homer Simpson.

so what have you decide to go with.the x is not out yet besides it will take sometime for aftermarket parts to come out.it will be good remember that the gsx are getting harder and harder to find.new is cool but i would stick to a gsx the evos will be around for awhile but the gsx is no more unless mitsu comes out with a new version.but is also getting old and i hope they dont forget about them and stop making parts for them.

silvreclipse:
I've decided I'll stick with the GSX. While the new evo will be pretty nice, but i'm looking for power, and the look of the 2g is just superior to the evo (in my view).

I liked the concept of the 4g someone posted earlier. I found it kinda funny they they reverted back to the 4g63 powerhouse.

What I think I'd really like to do, is build a drift gsx or a rally gsx. I really wonder how the GSX would do in drifting, we all know it's a championship rally car, but drifting is a bit newer.

As for Street Racing, to put it simple, if people weren't street racing, there would not be that much production in the aftermarket industry. You don't make a 1000hp engine to have it sit in a show. ;) I was watching an IMV Film on google the other day, really put things into perspective on street racing.

Here it is: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-4...earch&plindex=0 if the link doesn't work, goto http://video.google.com and put the title "The Vice of Bad Folks - IMV Films" into the search.

Long video, but it's pretty true to every driver that builds up a car, and drives it on the street.

While I do respect most of your views, it's this simple. If you modify a car, performance wise, or exterior wise, your doing it for 1 reason or the other. Go fast, or look good.
You put the power under the hood for a reason, to GO. When you see someone fly up to you at 2am on the freeway, your not going to stay at your 70-75mph. I've seen many crashes, and have pulled many cars from hundreds of feet off the road after they crashed, and it's plain and simple. Dislike racing on the street, or the people all you like, but it's a simple fact, you will put your foot into it when the time comes.

Ofcourse, there will probably be more flaming for the above, but this is the internet, just like street racing, you can't stop it.

Thanks!
Russ
