Need Help going up against a Deawoo Lanos

Ok, my FD is Bonestock ,and my friend has a Deawoo Lanos. He wants to race me, but I dont really know anything about these korean cars. From what my friends tell me, he's swaped his motor out for the monsterous 2.0 Nubria D-Tech engine, and has headers, intake, kenwood MP3/CD headunit, PIAAs and a really big exhaust. I also saw a type R, NOS, Turbo, and GTR sticker on his car, so I know its not slow. He's claimed to take out Civic SI's, Excersion's, Integra Type R's, MacLaren F1's, and a couple of Boxers too. I always see him buzzing by on the freeway and sticking out his head out the window making a "Paaaasuuuhhhhhh" noise, and he always drives so fast, so Im kinda bit nervous. The only time I saw him race was when he lined up with a Camero SS at a light, but he stalled off the line because he said his ATC stage 4 clutch was slipping due to his high horsepower rating. I dunno, help me out guys what do I need to do to my car to even stand a chance?

That's supposed to be funny ?
My dead grandmother in a three-wheeled wheelchair can stomp your POS FD, no prob :p

And btw, I too have lined up against an F-16, but my clutch was slipping badly at that time, so I thought I'd give him the time of day and let him walk...

Question What the FU$#

Is your FD a complete piece of **** running on one rotor firing half of the time? If not **** That Hybrid Piece of **** Up! It is a junk car made by a bankrupt company. Even if he did have Nos, turbo, the all out exhaust running ungodly boost you would still destroy him. If you don't beat him you are a disgrace to the FD comunity and sell your car to someone who isn't scared to race that POS.

LOL...We've got a comedian in the forum. I was kinda believing the story until the Daewoo's kill list came into my view. McLaren?? you've got 2 b kidding me. I want to know if there's any street FWD that can take the F1... it would be nice to know if such machine exists....

Crashunit - $$$Thousands$$ = bone stock

This probably would have been better staying in the kill section, but oh well

Hey beware the Dawoops. I almost lost to a Cavalir this weekend because it had a body kit and was burning up the 145/60s he had, Mabey I was just giggling to much to get a good launch on him?

Gee I'm sorry, compared to some of the stories that have been going on round this section, I thought this would fit right in? But aperrantly some people don't have a sense of humor, or do you just drive a Deawoo too? Sorry about that, next time don't waste your time read my threads, you'll live longer . Haven't your momma told you " If you don't have anything nice to say, shut your trap!"

Do you think a stock FD could beat a Lanos or would I need to get a dp? I heard their 1.5 liter v6's really have some *****.

Crashunit, yeah the interior of your car looks almost stock. I would say that all those gauges are vital to monitor the totally stock car. And good luck with the Daewoo, I mean, he beat an F-1. But it still should be a good race. You'll just have to shift somewhere around 1200 RPM to keep it close.
