Even start in 3rd. I immediately pull 2 and shifted to 4th had 4 1/2 at 125 shut down. We went again and I purposely punched a 1/2 a car behind. i was a half ahead when shifted to 4th. I proceeded to pull in front of him about 2 1/2 ahead @ about 125.We got up to the light a while later and I rolled the window down noticing the supercharger. He asked how much boost I said 15 psi. He then said he can stay even w/ his buddies 67 mm turbo supra ( i doubt it). He told me he was making 470 to the ground (doubt that too). Told him i was only making 375. He didnt believe me. Nice guy nonetheless. We went our seperate ways.

 

Nice race... Yeah I think that I am with you on this one. I don't believe that he is puttin down that much with you putting that many lengths on him. Nonetheless it was a good win.

 

Nice kill, no matter what his HP, its still supercharged

 

Nice double kill. Always good to make sure they know the first wasn't a fluke

 

Nice kill, what are your mods?

 

Everything to support maximum boost on the stock turbos w/ a large street ported motor. G

 

nice kill.

 

+1^

 

I can't believe it.

 

Oh stop with your WRX and its full exhaust. ^^
nice kill

 

???




It's just hard to believe a 470whp ls1 could lose to a stock twin FD

 

Nice kill! I guess that's what weighing 1000 pounds less will do for ya. Now that I stop and think about it, I do believe that he was making 470. I used to narrowly pull a good friend who had a supra who was making 100 more rwhp then I was back then, 450 to 350.

 

You just don't know enough about FDs. His car probably weighs around 2700 pounds, with a 4.10 final drive. How much do you think that TA weighs, and what's it's gearing?

 

LOL....damn

this thread is a JOKE.

 

LOL....damn
wait, what is the fastest a stock twin fd car has gone?

Iam gonna say, this ***** just set the record. that ta he raced is a 10 sec car.

 

hommie, there is more to a car than wheight and gearing.

 

And here come the trolls......'horsepower to weight ratio'<------Google it.

 

My god I hate trolls. Just ban him already.

STi ----do some reading on the forum. hp to weight, ect.

 

good kill......

horsepower to weight ratio:

T/A

470 rwhp - 3450lbs --> 0.13623188405797

FD

373 rwhp - 2700lbs --> 0.13814814814815

OK, FD's ratio > T/A's ratio... then you have to add gearing and other factors.

still hard to believe... congrats you have a 10s car.

 

NA, i dont need google to tell me which car is faster, ive worked on enough, and have had enough experience with performance cars to tell which is the faster car.


iam sorry you need google to tell you if a car is fast though.



"I dont need a piece of paper and light bulb to tell me if a car is fast"

 

Is that the ONLY argument you guys have? seriously.

 

ellisjuan up above did your homework for you. As I already stated, the cars were about evenly matched---looks like a driver's race to me

 

no one ever answered my question, what is the fastest that a stock twin FD has gone?

 

What the hell is a TA?

 

nice g
