Before I say what our bet is, do I have to be driving it? :P

jd sucks at trying to hype his projects :P

This thread is/was meant to ---- with Spiker. I've posted, what, three shitty cell phone pics that show jack and ---- in crummy detail and pretty much run my mouth to every comment not worth replying to while not giving full or complete answers to any decent question. Pay attention, buk, there's little hype involved.

Stock rockers in good repair = 8K reliably. I know a couple LS/404 guys revving 8500 daily, but I think they're crazy.

you rocking a 4 speed as well jorsher? the only reason my rpms are a tad lower is because i got bigger tires than stock 13's from honda. i belive i got 185/70-14's right now. it may be 185/65-13's but i do know one thing for sure, cant beat 40 bucks a tire at walmart that last all year. though this year im planning on widening my 13's and getting some nice and suttle 13x7's from tire rack.

Nah, 5 speed CRSEX SI. Around 4k 3600rpm at 70mph in 5th with 16s. Didn't know tirerack has 13x7s. I want to get some 15s, I think that's the smallest wheel I can get that'll fit over ITR caliperz.

Anyone can drive minus a "professional driver".
