    I'm sure many of us have this. Everytime I do a perfect launch(full boost kicks) I always have a Black out due to the amount of blood in my brain rushing to the back of my head. Gosh i hate this. How am I going to Turbo Upgrade? I dont want to past out on the track and hit like 20sec. I'm only running TDO4. Any tips for My Head or is my brain not made for this? how about you guys?

    Yeah, get your blood pressure checked out. Your stock parts shouldn't generate so much force that you black out. See a doctor, your nut behind the wheel may need fixing.

    wow, either this is the biggest load of crap I've heard in a long time or you really need to see a doctor:eek4::eek4::eek4:

    btw- how are you launching with full boost? and how many transmission have you killed?

    this does not sound healthy. Do you black out when you break fast too? Because I would be worried about that more.

    our jokes are not causing him to black out. He should slow down on the acceleration.

    IMHO...if it's actually that serious MNSubaru should be the last place he should be spending time worrying about a turbo upgrade. He should be in the doctor's office.

    haha, maybe i wasn't meant to say FULL boost. I launch at about 4.5K Rpm then floor it along with balancing the clutch to get all boost I can.

    ... has anyone noticed that ej20 hasn't posted since 4:30 this morning? Maybe he was launching too much on his way to work and blacked out? Goose! nnnnnnnnoooooooooooooooooo!!!!


    Edit: So, apparently he didn't die.... disregard

    Either way Kong, if you are blacking out behind the wheel, you should probably go see a doctor.

    OMG..this is serious folks. I found this hidden deep in the internet...SOA is obviously covering something up:eek4:

    g-induced Loss Of Consciousness (abbreviated g-LOC) is a condition where a person loses consciousness because g-forces primarily acting along the length of the body move the blood away from the brain to the extent that consciousness is lost.
    These conditions are linked to astronauts, pilots of fighter planes, pilots of aerobatic aircraft, and drivers of the almost supernatural super car, the Subaru WRX.
    Incidents of acceleration-induced loss of consciousness have caused fatal accidents in aircraft and Subarus capable of sustaining high-g for considerable periods such as the BAe Hawk, F-16 Falcon, WRX and F/A-18 Hornet. As a result, air force training facilities in many countries now include man-rated centrifuges and auto-x courses for high-g training in a safe environment.

    As g-forces increases, visual effects include loss of colour vision (grey-out), followed by tunnel vision (where peripheral vision is lost, retaining only the centre vision). If g-forces increase further, complete loss of vision will occur, while consciousness remains. These effects are due to a reduction of blood flow to the eyes before blood flow to the brain is lost, because the extra pressure within the eye (intraocular pressure) counters the blood pressure.

    The human body has different tolerances for g-forces depending on the acceleration direction. Humans can withstand a positive acceleration forward at a higher g-forces than they can withstand a positive acceleration upwards at the same g-forces. This is due to the fact that when the body is moving up at such high speeds the blood rushes from the brain which causes loss of consciousness.

    A further increase in g-forces will cause g-LOC where consciousness is lost. This is doubly dangerous because, on recovery as g is reduced, a period of several seconds of disorientation occurs, during which the aircraft can dive into the ground or the Subaru can crash off the road. Dreams are reported to follow G-LOC which are brief and vivid.

    The g thresholds at which these effects occur depend on the training, age and fitness of the individual. An un-trained individual not used to the g-straining manoevre or HIGH BOOST LAUNCHES, can black out between 4 and 6 g, particularly if this is pulled suddenly. A trained, fit individual wearing a g suit and practising the straining manoeuvre, can, with some difficulty, sustain up to 9g without loss of consciousness.


    just messin with ya...Seriously though, as believable as this may be, it's just a joke....

    Actually, no we don't. And I'd be willing to be you're either full of it or you're about to die from some intercranial issue. Do you really know what a blackout is? If you were really blacking out, you'd have already wrecked your car. And if you really are blacking out (which I doubt) then a 20 second timeslip is the least of your worries. You do realize that a Carrier launch is enough to cause tunnel vision and blackouts, and they're going from 0-120+ in less than 2.5 seconds. Your car isn't that fast.

    This is, quite possibly, the most retarded thread ever posted on the internet. Even more ridiculous than that guy that had sex with a dead crab. You either have a serious problem that requires medical attention IMMEDIATELY, or you are just so incredibly full of crap that you really think you are in the fast and the furious with your stock WRX. Dream's car is probably the fastest Subaru on this site. I've been in it for full boost runs. At no point in time did I ever have acceleration blackout or tunnel vision. And the forces were enough to make it near impossible to lean forward in the seat during acceleration. Please either see a doctor, or admit that you are just incredibly full of crap.

    Yeah, and photographed it. It's on GenMay. Or just search Google for "Tolageek crab." This tolageek guy, he is lost. Not only did he photograph himself ****ing a dead crab, but he also took pics of himself in a bathtub trying to recreate tubgirl. He calls himself 'TubBoy.' And the last picture I saw of him he was face down in a tub full of brown water with "TUB BOY DOT COM" written in permanent ink across his ass.
