Thread: a manager from autozone wants to race for cash

ok so 14 psi is stock. if hes running 20, he's not stock. end of story.

Although at the same token, I've met some real "winners" that are managers at AZ(almost all the guys at my AZ are actually pretty good which is rare I know). Maybe this guy just bought a car that he just "thinks" is fast. Or he just "thinks" your car is slow. It's funny to me how many guys I've seen posting 1/4 timeslips and I'm thinking, "why would you verify that your car is slow". I currently wouldn't show my time slip to any ol' person I met on the street. Hoping to change that soon, but my car isn't fast.

what year is this eclipse? i probably would run him.

hes pushing 20psi of boost. He might smoke you if he has flow mods. ported head? cant look for that. is it loud? Remember psi doesnt mean ANYTHING with flow.

I am the only one that thinks the idea of a 100 dollar race between a grand prix and a supposed stock eclipse is silly?

well, he does manage an autozone. Thats like a "g" to us normal folk.

You can own decently awesome cars on a 50k budget, but you still live in a trailer.

I am wondering the same. I have run into many people over the years that think their car is fast because its a sports car, it feels / sounds much faster than their old car, they assume your car is slow because it is an "X", etc. I would verify before the race that it is stock and go for it.

The manager at my local az drives a 87 dakota. They don't all have money.

wow 2 pages in less than 2 hours lol thats fast. bet this thread beats that eclipse

I think a GT would give a stock GSX a run for its money, stock its only a high 14 second car.

never know.Keep in mind he's putting cash on the line. At least look for a muffler. im telling you flow mods on a turbo car will tell you. ESPECIALLY with a turbo car.
