A Frigging Saturn

ARE YOU KIDDING ME

The ***** on some people, I wouldn't waste my rubber
OR A CHANCE ON A TICKET for a Saturn.
The a-hole is sitting there doing the ying ying ying reving,
and I'm laughing my *** off. The best part about these things
are when the light turns green you causually drive away as you normally would, and here this thing is going ballz out, making all kinds of noises, AND GOING ABSOLUTELY NO WHERE,
in a matter of seconds he's like a hundred cars back, and your
crusing at like 2000 RPM listening to this annoying buzzing sound
in the distance

Don't they realize how slow they are ???
I think a good foot runner could take one down in a Race

 

I too don't not waste my time, gas, or tires on worthless races anymore. After ten million tickets last year I have threw in the towel. When I got back from Japan I actually did the speed limit for a month before I tore motor out this past week. I figure this is Hawaii. I have nowhere to go in a hurry. Hey Rob, when I get the truck back together I'll go to the beach for spring break and get some lemonade shots for you. Maybe I can change your mind to get out of that ice box you live in.

 

Hey Rob, you had me worried there for a minute when I read the title of your thread. WTF, a Saturn. I had a funny thing happen sort of like that way back when. I'm riding my Ba!!s to the walls KZ 1000 Kawasaki. Fastest bike in town. This guy in a V8 Vega asks me where the race is? I said "what race" he says "you and me" I laugh and say "you got some extra gas you're trying to waste?". He just gets real serious, both hands on the wheel waiting for the light to turn green. We get the green, I leave like 50 Ft of rubber and then back off. He wouldn't even pull back along side me. The stupidity of some people.

 

My race car is a Saturn.

Odds are this guy was an idiot, but they can be made fast. A limited slip diff is available, and at 2500 lbs full stock weight, it's not hard to get them reasonably fast (13s)

Turbos and SCs are available, and you can get 400hp out of the engine if you're working hard.

I think the fastest Saturn is faster than the fastest Lightning (10.2 if I remember correctly)

Again, all that being said, he was probably just an idiot in a stock Saturn.

are you guys kidding? didnt anyone tell you that any car with a aftermarket ghetto exhaust is truely a race car?

i get most of my laughs from those guys, i like to toy with them an stay door to door untill they think that theyre actually keeping up, then slam it for a few seconds, and then slow down to see their face! its usually not the happiest face ever@

 

What about Jason Brown?? He ran a 7.88@182 with his 95 Lightning

 

Hey ROB, the vids in your sig, where were they filmed?

 

"turned down a race last night" and a "rob02" sig together in one post is just plain wierd. Heck Rob, you will roast em' with no one at the light something's up? you mellowing out?

I did see a plain jane saturn at the track this past summer running low,low 9's in the 1\8th. He put a supercharger on it and did all the custom work himself. He couldn't touch us but the stangs he sure could.

Hell, just rev the engine in neutral until the light turns green and then put it in gear and drive normally. Let em drag by themselves... It would be cool if ya had some audio soundtrack of burning rubber that you could turn on to fake em out...

 

Dam Mart Man we do have a lot in common,
I owned the Proto Type Kawi Z-1 900cc, and later the Z1R 1000cc Proto Type. The 900 was bored to 1015, had custom paint, a red and black Motor, Nitrous, Wheelie Bar's, Racing Carbs, Velocity Stacks, Header, Cams, Electric Fuel Pump, bla bla bla...
LOTS OF FUN, and also king of the streets in my neighborhood back then.

The 12.0 is at Cecil (Maryland), and the 11.81 is Eng Town (Jersey)

NO NO NO , No Mellowing Out,
A matter of fact, I got to do some serious smoky's last night,
(I got to do some crusing minus the Kid)
and I did have some fun, but all by myself.
The prob is traction, OR MAJOR LACK OF IT LATELY.
Truthfully speaking, between the cold roads and the FTVB,
I can't touch the got dam pedal without going sideways
(It's starting to really bother me)
I know there must be some fast Saturns somewhere,
OR SOMETHING
but this was just a typical ricer with the garbage can exhuast
sticking out the back, believe me it wasn't worth the trouble,
but hearing it making all that noise and going nowhere
was priceless

 

You could still race him to the speed limit and not get in trouble....then let him do his flyby and get busted

 

Rob, I had a couple guys in a Saturn try to run me about a month ago. Normally I wouldn't even pay them any mind, but this guy was an ***. He pulls up on my right and beeps at me, then I look over and he signals me to roll down my window, so I did. Then he proceeds to laugh at me and say that Lightnings are slow as hell and that he smokes em all the time. I just roll my eyes and give him the "You're a waste of life" look. Anyways the light turns green and I roast em bigtime (naturally). I look back and he looked like a speck in my rearview mirror. I slowed down and he of course does the gay "flyby". It's funny though, I did happen to see him again on the road about a week or so after that and he wouldn't even look at me as I leaned over and glared at him. He knew I was there, I'm sure he heard me.
