we dont like them....we figure maybe if we bag on you enough you'll leave. you're like the dorky kid in high school...the one that tags along behind the cool guys and tries to talk to them but always gets ignored.

Hyper--
Have I beaten a 5.3? Sure, but then again ive seen a prelude with nothing but intake and exaust beat a Z06 (no **** I have it on film....Z06 killed it launching it and still damn near won).

Did the Z06 have his motor running?
I don't even wanna know the circumstances, because that is pure bullshlt
Read more carefully......The Z06 driver killed it (the car) at the lauch. In other words. He had time to compose himself, start the car, and get started and still ALMOST beat the Lude in the quarter. I'll try to dig up the vid for ya.
My point was that slower cars can beat faster ones, but they are fluke wins (or the result of inexcuseable driver error). Like a stock 4.8 beating a stock 5.3 would be a fluke win (or the result of inexcuseable driver error).

Re: Thoughts about 4.8 and 5.3
I challenge you to find ONE SINGLE EXAMPLE of where someone has said that a modified 4.8 can't beat a stock 5.3. OR FIND ONE SINGLE EXAMPLE of where someone has said a 4.8 that is MORE MODIFIED than a 5.3 can't beat the 5.3.
one example of that would be the z06 vs prelude comment. we all know that the prelude(the 4.8 in the ex.) can have everything done in the book and still loose.
You clearly lacked the intelligence to understand my post about the prelude. The point was NOT that the prelude is faster. In fact the point was that the prelude has NO PRAYER but still WON. Which means that yes, fluke wins happen (like a 4.8 STOCK TO STOCK beating a 5.3) But when they do happen EVERYONE Knows they are flukes. As evidenced by the reactions to that post in this thread.
....gotta dig up that video.

That pretty much sums it up right there folks.
I really feel this comment stands alone with out me even needing to say anything else.
