1986 Mazda RX-7 GXL 8.5 16.5
1992 Mitsubishi Eclipse GSX 7.0 15.3 (same time as talon?)

A NON-TURBO TALON. Which would be the ESI. The GSX had AWD and a turbo, equivalent to do the TSI AWD Talon. Are you the one that always posts the track times to cars that are barely simular?

Even with a DOHC could be taken easily if you can ship

thanks for the correction. iuno, maybe? but i have posted times 2-3 times :)

And every comparison you've been off.

You compare a stock TII to a j-spec'd Convertable with a heavier hood (added weight, loss of compression (how many jspecs are perfect? Who swaps to stay stock?) and call it the same. It's just annoying.

SayNoToPistons 11-08-05 10:32 PM

i was right on the G35 one lol. i dont rememebr anything ive posted about conv. i only posted the G35c/sedan and the GTO.

Jager 11-08-05 10:43 PM

Maybe it was someone else that always posts times of cars that are nowhere close. My bad.

Cosmo_TT 11-09-05 06:00 AM

a gsx runs faster than a 15.3 maybe a gst might run that on a bad day but awd ones are in the high 14's
i see it all day long and yes i own one of those too but a 91 tsi not gsx but same thing
anywho uuummmm you should still be able to win you would have the rear wheel drive advantage over his fwd and you would have more ponies 146 compared to 135 or 92 if he has the real low model but probably 135 so 11 horses more plus launch advantage and weight is pretty close but yes you will win if you dont mess up

come on guys, you cant believe those online 1/4 and 0-60 charts are accurate...there are so many other factors involved, mainly driving ability and condition of the car.

I like this guy :D!

Snotcycle 11-09-05 07:13 PM

i think you'll take him, those things are really not that nice, and its a 1g N/A. you're N/A i assume? you should still take him, just keep a cool head on the launch, visualize the launch and then act as if the talon isn't even there, that you are at your favorite light just racing yourself. you are the one d00d

well if it was a question about his ability versus his friends then it would be about that, instead it is about the cars
but anyhow that is the reason for averages you cant just see one race or one "chart" and think that that is the correct info research and better yet witness more races and cars and then you will have a better estimate of how fast certain cars are
