If i beat you from stop light to stoplight you lose...Straight up. Who cares whose faster or quicker??? 'Cause there's no difference in a race. If I finish first, I beat you fair and square, meaning I'm quicker and faster than you at that given moment, therefore, there is no debate and no difference between quicker and faster....especially if your girl is riding shotgun. Then you'll only get laid out of sympathy, but your still a loser.

You wanna talk the talk about who's faster, you all need to line up and settle this ****...The traps do the talking, bitches.

huh?

 

I think he is having a little fit about all of the call out threads which were mostly joking, I wouldn't let it get your panties in a bunch.

 

It's not that at all, bro. I wanna know what the difference between quicker and faster is and if it actually means something.

Take this as an example:

You line up with a new SRT-10 at the local track with your chipped and filtered Lightning. You run a 13.1 @103 to his 13.5 @ 107. After the run you go talk to the dude and check out his ride...When you meet him he says "You may have gotten me by a couple car lengths, but I'm faster".....What would you say then??? I seriously hope you would laugh in his face.

I think it reminds me of that old song by Bruce Springsteen...You know the one with line "boring stories of....Glory Days"

his MPH is FASTER, while your 1/4 is QUICKER

 

 

It's pretty obvious what I'm talking about, dude.

If you gonna have the title of fastest or quickest anything you better have the goods to get to the finish line first....Understood???

WYLD STALLYNS RULE

 

Sorry. I haven't had a chance to use that picture yet. I guess I could have waited for something better; but, I didn't.



I understand what you mean. It just doesn't always apply. As long as trap times and trap speeds are recorded separately for organized drag racing, quick and fast will be two different things. Would you make a big deal out of it to belittle someone else's accomplishment? No. I don't think I've seen anyone here do that.

 

i take back what i said earlier....


This is now officially the biggest example of post whoring and the worst thread known to man.

I look at it this way, if we both start at point A, and I beat you to point B, I win, I am faster, I am better. Same way a foot race would work. You don't see the guy who ran the fastest 100yd dash going "chit guys I got there in 10 seconds and beat everyone to the finish line, but that guy behind me was running about 3-4 mph faster than me at the end, I guess he gets the first place medal, sucks for me"....

When they start recording runner speed at track meets, the guy who can attain a speed that is faster than the other runners can attain will have a bragging point. The first runner to break a certain mph will have bragging rights to that speed until someone betters him. There will also be mile markers along the way that people will be waiting for to fall.

In drag racing it was 200 mph for a while. I think Don Garlits was the first past that marker. 300 mph was the next big marker for the sport. Kenny Bernstein was the man for that one. Having the top speed at the end of the track doesn't mean you win the race; but, has it's importance in the sport. On the street, it don't mean chit.

 

He's either smokin some of that good chit laced with STP, or somebody put some Mobil 1 in his diet coke.

 

 

Freeebie...

Yeah! Lets just totally ignore what all the other drag racers do! We're so much smarter than they are! We don't care if speed is a measure of power that has been around since dirt...we just want to know who's in front when we pass Bubba's barn.
