It's not a matter of babying them. My son is a full-time highschool student with AP classes, involved heavily with Civil Air Patrol, baseball and his church's youth group. He is building character the way he feels he needs to, so I am obligated to clear his path for him to successfully reach his objectives. His time is worth more than minimum wage.

I have all ap classes. I get to school at 7am and dont leave from practice until 6. I have a good four hours of homework a night too. like denny says. its just not worth it. besides I bet every one of you guys would love free gas. lol

Back in 1992 I went to the Motorplex with a guy with your exact car, coupe with some bolt on shit. He ran 13.08 and 13.06. He wanted a 12.99 so we took the belt off the car. 12.99 was the number. I won the bracket race class and took home $50 and to top it all off the final race was me against a Fiero and he fucking redlighted.

Now stop fiddle-fucking around and get serious.

Best I got with the 90 was 13.46 @ 99.

I know this... My car runs the same if not a little slower then Brooks blue coupe when it was stock, that impresses me. Lol

Put some real tires on that car and get a real driver and it will do a 1.55.

Stop embarassing stock coupes!

Now, Alan... don't be too hard on these kids

2.24 on 2.73 and 225 street tires last time out.

When I had a pair of radials it was 2.0-2.1.

It now has gears, and hopefully with full drag suspension I can get 1.8 or better.

I'd like a 1.7, but I don't see that with stock power.

Justa4banger, he's a kid, he's gonna do stupid shit. My parents paid for a tank of gas every week for when I was still in HS. Don't call the kid a piece of shit for something his parents do for him you ignorant ass.

Denny, you really ride this kid hard. Why? Is he your illegitimate son or something? He asked about gears. Not whether or not you approve of him as a person.

What the hell are you talking about?! Did you attend the same school as matts5.0?

Yeah, its twisting a little. If you had really sticky tires and some more power, I would guess you would have already begun ripping the mounts out. I would get to stiffening the chassis before I got too crazy with the racing. Are your subframes small/cheap? You might be able to upgrade there. Definitely do the weld in upper and lower plates. I also had a bar in the rear hatch area of my 93 that connected the rear "frame rails"

I'll get a picture of the subframes later.

Besides larger subframes and a cross bar what else besides a cage?

Welding the torque boxes will be done before it makes another pass.

need a 150 shot on top

[Denny]

who can have a legit disagrement online with someone with 44K post.. my bad good sir

Dude, you tried to call me out and looked like an idiot because you misread what I said, then got called out by two other people. You finished it with a "I bet you wouldn't say that to my face." comment.

[Jimbo]

I was going to do the weld In plates as well.

Here's another odd thing my car did when I had the radials.

Behind the back seat there is a cross brace that goes center to upper corner of seat and is spot welded from the factory.

It broke the welds and twisted the brace.. I welded it back and it broke again last week after I was getting on it. Why is it flexing so much?

Is this a common problem with coupes? I've only had hatches before.

Would it benifit me to remove the stock brace and replace with more sturdy materials?

You don't have subframes, do you?

Welded sub frames, not full length.
