[quote=wheel4hummer]If the transmission and suspension was upgraded, then it would kick yer Neon's arse.

there ya go right there....IF the tranny and suspension was upgraded......mines not...both are factory on my car....and i can almost guarantee you that if a camaro is set up to run 9's in the 1/4 it's not the same as it would be to run a road course....my car's suspension doesn't change...whether i'm running at the strip, on a road course, or using it as my daily driver(which it is)

last summer i was racing at the LimeRock road course here in CT almost every weekend and was up at New England Dragway in NH almost every Wednesday night...so yes...i do race my car quite often

What does this have to do with the thread? illepall

Quote from tristancliffe :

Basically some cars now have two cam lobes on the camshaft. At a certain rpm the lobe in use in changed, which also has different timing.

This means a car can be civilized, quite and economical at lower revs, but can make it a teeny bit more powerful at higher revs whilst also

making it sound like a 5 year old bolted it together.

It's mostly a marketting ploy, although it does have a bit of real science underlying it. And chavs love it.

Wellllll.... I don't think so...
It's a pice of engineering, that some folks like, like me...
But have you ever driven a Honda with VTEC?

Quote from wheel4hummer :

I don't think Venom5 knows what a camshaft is...

Although I would like to see variable valve timing implemented, and upgrading of cams

I do know...

I've maid a Civic Type R EK9 and a Civic 1.6 VTi EG5...
Have'nt figured out yet how to move the revv limiter...
But virtual redline, for the Type R; 8400 rpm, VTi; 8000
Have fun!

I don't know if this already excists, but it would be cool to have a VTEC sound above 4800 or so revs in every car, or a car at your choice...
I've maid a Civic Type R EK9 with Mecanic S2, but I'm missing the VTEC sound that should be kicking in at 5800 revs (correct me if I'm wrong)
Can somebody make something so we can hear a VTEC sound, that we can adjust to revs?
THnx
