car running weird


idk if maybe im just getting use to the new gears or if my car just needs a tune up or somethign really bad but she doesnt seem to throw me in my seat as hard when i get on it

everything seems fine except i think the front tires mite need to be balenced (rear tires just got done last nite)

CEL has been on for about 3 months so my solution is running vs a pretty much stock 03 gt and seeing how i do from a roll...if i lose ill know for sure somethigns wrong

figure the drive mod comes in alot less since no launch and we're gonna get like 10 runs in

How bout instead of racing to find out if something on your car is messed up try and figure out what the problem is and fix it

yeah thats probably the dumbest thing ive ever heard to find to see if something is wrong with a car. if you don't know whats wrong with it take it to a shop and have them look at it or something.

im lucky enough i just take it to my step dad and he finds out what it is and fixes it.

last time something was wrong i took it to him and he figured out that i needed a whole new brake system. so he installed a whole new system in three days.

no its not the tires or brakes if you have a light on. i cant remember what mine was doing but i didnt expect it to be the brake lines.

and they are stupid for wanting to charge that much. im sure you could just buy the hand held for less than that. if you were closer i would let you use mine

well thats ur problem...

as soon as u turn ur 02's off u'll be fine....

and demello, just because ur car doesn't put u in the back of ur seat as hard could also mean ur just getting used to the pull and compensating for it.

the real test is if u passengers get pinned

for the last fuicking time

stop basing ur cars condition on how u fair against people in a race. there are too many deciding facters that can change the outcome.

people with the ability to drive can make these cars run 13.8 trap times. It's because they utilize every aspect of power they can get, and understand where the car makes the best power. What happens if u race someone like that who only had exhuast and intake.? that slightyl moddded car is going to be just as quick as ur more modded car, because they can drive that much better. r u going tothen think somethings wrong with ur car because a kid beat u with CAI and midpipe?

and the same can be said for a guy who doesn't know how to drive. What happens if u race the same exact car down to the brand exhaust and both drivers suck. ur not timing ur races, u don't know that 1 guy ran a 13.6 and the other a 14.7. what happens if u both run 15 second times. How r u gonna know ur cars not running right because u n this mystery stanger tied and it's all cool cause ur cars are =

stop diagnosing ur cars problems by racing. U WILL BLOW SOMETHING UP
