What is up with all these new threads.
Do you have a fast bike or I need a car club. Any 200 mph cars? Come on.. Its almost as bad as the repost on dope status

Performance versus Raw Horsepower: Thoughts and Opinions?
So here is the question: Will a turd of a car with lots of horsepower kill a finely tuned and balanced car with less horsepower?... come on VADRIVEN chime in on this.
Does driving skill enter into the equation?
Straight race or oval track? Dirt or concrete?
Does the weight of the car enter into the equation?
What about setup: tires, suspension... can that 110hp Corvair Monza really outperform the 426 Hemi in a 4,000lb 67 GTX or a 400hp Cadillac Coupe de Ville?
How 'bout that little RX8 versus the might Trans Am? Or a BMW 2002tii versus a '69 Chevell SS 396?
Who invented liquid cheese and why?
These questions need to be answered... and you people on VADRIVEN are just the folks to do it...

Quoted. And for the record, if you need us to answer questions like the above in bold...you should log out. You won't last here. Are all these honestly serious questions? Why would driving skill and weight NOT enter the equation? Holy crap.

and TATRAT told me to "lighten up" (LOL)
I think I remember reading about how much "fun" you people have on VADRIVEN... how you relax at work by focusing your valuable time on stupid questions and make wiener jokes...
Sounds like some of you guys can dish it out but can't take it.
And I agree, the question was dumb... it was to prove a point and everyone that responded proved that point.
