have you been to Panama?

HTM Yaris · 03-16-2007, 05:28 PM

Yeah I lived there for 6 years . I lived in La Chorrera . I went to los rios elememtary and Curundu jr high . I used to love to go fishing for peacock bass in Lake Gatun . I love the way you can hear the Howler monkeys from miles away while on the lake . Colorado beach = the shizzle . Yeah I miss that place :(

Which side do you live on ? A or P ?

? what are the fruit that grow in large trees in bunches (like grapes) called . They have a green shell and have pinkish flesh . They are sweet and juicy .

Spades · 03-16-2007, 07:35 PM

by first place i am assuming that you mean bracket racing(consistently running the same times over and over, if you go over or under you loose points)...

also, i hope thats 17 seconds in the 1/4, not the 1/8, otherwise that is one slow yaris,lol.

That's a fact.
Im from Guatemala, and I had raced my Yaris TS in the 1/4 mile and in the 1/8 mile, and i have had better times.
My yaris shoes are: Hankook k104 195/50/ZR15

My times:
1/8: 11.16
1/4: 16.40

Spades · 03-31-2007, 03:11 PM

Hrm, 16.4 ....not bad, I think car and driver and the other mags have only achieved 17.1s...

I still havent found out if placing first in the 17 second category was due to it running a 17.xx and was the fastest time in 17 second runs, or if it was as I suspected and was bracket racing.

Thanks, well I guess is not bad, but considering that I was running with 28psi in all of the tires, and half tank of gas, is really not bad.
And that time I was also running in the 17secs category, and I was disqualified because of my time of 16.4 I was really amazed because a friend of mine was running that same day a 2002 VW GTI VR6, and his best time was 16.3.
Even so, the car has great potencial, its just a matter of having the right upgrades and really knowing the car.
