Your biggest kill...
We all know putting a turbo on a car that weighs half as much as most cars on the road that people try to make fast is pretty smart. Not to mention it being a car that most guys that need a big car/big engine to compensate for their small penis would more than likely say its a car for girls and queers just makes it that much easier to get a race. I know that as soon as my car is ready to race, IT WILL BE RACED. I also know that it will be beating cars that it was never made to run with. I figured I would start a thread that people could share their most memorable kills, (on the street or on the track). Beating a car that came off the show room floor, at one time, being made to dominate most other cars, can only be a life altering experience. Tell all what it was like to beat that car to the finish line or to the next light....

*We do not condone street racing on this forum!
Oh wait, it's not m.net. I beat a Grand Prix once.... |
Ferrari F430 spyder (sorta...wasnt a straight line race...and i blew my tranny keeping up ), Dodge Viper GTS, Ferrarri 360 Modena, Acura Integra w/ A T3/T61. There are a lot more.
|
I killed my engine!
|
one time i shot a 6 pointer...
haha jk...no current kills yet as new owner...but my cousin i believe did a number on some cars. |
nothing around here but v6 suvs and luxo sedans
|
It isn't much since I didn't get to run like 10 psi very long but an STI, and a G35. Looking forward to the built motor to step it up a notch.
|
A few unsuspecting sti's and evo's!
|
at the track had a better mph than several STis, some modded, an srt-4 with a big IC, an SR'd 240, a Mach 1 mustang w/boltons (i believe a mach 1 is a 4.6 dohc cobra motor without the blower) and a 99 Mustang with a stroker motor. (off the bottle only, with it he trapped like 93.
yeah thats right, second only to a supra in mph, but one of the slowest E.T.s there. |
Both black Vipers in this town last summer, light to light.
|
at the track a nissan micra 1.1 and some blue truck..:ugh2:
|
sounds good, keep em commin'. Anybody beat a vette? And thats a CORvette, not a SHAvette. hahaha
|
neighbor's supercharged S2000. Twice :)
Sister's BF has a Modena, maybe we'll do it one day, but he'd take me. |
Toyota Yaris. Not sure if he was racing or not though.

on my old NB, naturally aspirated i smoked a mazdaspeed Protege and that car had way more power than mine, lol... driver skills!!! FTW! 16.2 on the 1/4mi. sorry for the S#!tty video. |
I love going to the road course and steam rolling turbo neons, blown cobalts, vw's and pretty much anything fwd.
However I really love running over the mustang gt's and running neck and neck with the base model boxsters. I'm going on real tires next week, so it should be cooler than last time...but the track is running in reverse. |

First day with the turbo kit I ran a 99-04 Mustang GT. Got him by almost 4 cars from 45-95. He was running dumps and an intake.
Mach1 from 70-110, was right on his ass, but had to half throttle it since I was behind him and didn't want to hit him. Got 4+ cars on a stock VR6 GTI from 45-110. Hold stead at 2 cars behind with mostly stock (intake) STi and EVO8s from 20-110. 3-4 cars behind a 242whp 240SX and 236whp Talon from 60-110. I am still running off the stock wastegate @ 5.5 psi. |
5.5 psi? how much horsepower is that?
|
I don't street race because I have to try and explain to the other guy how I can't launch because of the 6" rear end. That makes me look like a wuss who just doesn't want to race or actually has a fake turbo. It's easier to just pretend I don't hear them revving.....stupid 6", who's great idea was that anyway?

I made a pathetic 111whp on the stock Greddy kit. Then found out the plugs were extremely loose when I did the plugs/wires a few weeks later. I am sure that had alot to do with the low output. |

I ran the Talon from a dig, slipped the clutch at 2k rpm and he couldn't catch me till 100mph. He had 100+ whp on me, and still wouldn't have caught me in the 1/4 mi. |
turbo carrera, 03 cobra, c5 vette, sti's. modified evo's, blah blah. that was at 13psi, on 91 octane california piss water.
|
Funny, all of my friends have freaking WRX's or STI's and think their shit is the fastest thing around ... Once I get my spun rod bearing fixed, ill have to take em out in the country and show them what this "gay little car" can do.

that's what i'm talkn' bout'! It's all about the cars we beat that we shouldn't be able to beat, and the priceless look on the owners face when he's served his own nuts on a cutting board.
|
I don't "street race", but I do drive fast whenever I can get away with it. I especially like getting on the freeway AT freeway speeds unlike a lot of Arizonans. For some reason people here drive especially slow getting on the freeway. So, I've caught several Corvettes, Mustang GTs, STIs, whatever by surprise by blowing by them getting on the freeway.
None of these were races by far as they weren't even trying. BUT, the look on their faces when I flew by them is just too funny. What's even more funny is them trying NOT to let me by or even flooring it after I went by them and me getting to speed and cruising at that speed. lol |
okay sooo...recent update...
first few kills last night. 1 older 5.0 stang 1 Turbo Civic and kept up with an srt4 with 3 people including the driver in it. all on 8 psi...shoulda turned it back up to 10 look on all of their faces...priceless |
I had a lot of fun back in like 99-2002 doing highway runs in the turbo vr6. Lots of fun...and never went to jail ironically enough.
|
hmm, i raced a cop... eventually i got cornered by three more...
|
Well I have yet to turbo my miata, but it doesnt say biggest miata kill! So in my spec I took out everything from slightly modded sti's to 6.0 gtos, but the best race was against a talon who thought he was hot shit, i raced him before at 3psi and beat him, and he made all these excuses, and I told him that my car wasnt running well and that I would run him with 10psi, anyways a summer goes by and i see him, and with four other people in the car, so five all together, I walked him. And yes some of my buddies with me were 200+lbs so you know how that is....priceless :)
|
Hmm... Most satisfying kill? A Suzuki GSX-R 600.
There is special something about taking out a bike... :) |

I surpised the hell out of some fag in a Solstice last summer. He was driving like a total ass so I showed him what 10psi of poorly tuned Greddy could do.
Other than that ... nothing. And I'm willing to bet that half the kills here were unaware they were in a contest of speed :) |
I was able to beat a GT3 at an autocross. The owner said that the course didn't work well for his car, that he was out of his powerband. Uh-huh. I drive a turbo 1.6, what do I know about power band.

Best kill was a Mercedes SL55 AMG in the twistys on an uphill drive
Young guy (perhaps 20) with daddies car, he kept on my bumper during the whole village, falling back 5 meters and then advancing to 1m distance with a blib of the throttle He passed me directly after the village sign with WOT, I try'd to keep behind using my nitrous (50 shot) I got him in the first tight 120° left corner, where his ESP went on , I passed him in the INSIDE of the corner in a slight drift and and pushed me in front of him with the help of the little bottle. The face of the guy in the mercedes was priceless. Ok , he got me on the next long straight and blasted away, but this was no more important for me :-) |

I concider myself a realy good driver too. I think most of the people here are talking out their asses (specially that one guy who listed the 911 turbo and 03 cobra.....I dont think they were racing you buddy). |
ive seen 12sec 1/4 mile passes with 250whp.
a 04 vr6 is slow 1/4 mile wise.my friend has one with a 6speed and ill spank him on 8psi |
i love the no faith in turbo miatas coming from owners.:td:

Haha true stock miatas aren't that fast in straight lines but damn when you throw a turbo on em they get going quick. I've taken a 270 whp evo, couple gt's and others... Once I had a guy on a bike riding near his friends big F-350 told me at a light " hey I bet this guy can beat you" I said "ok" gave him a 3 car length headstart of the line and then blew past him. Looked like he just had a chip and exhaust although they are fast for a big heavy truck. |
dude there are so many trucks out there which are ubelievably fast. When I had my upgraded wrx wagon, it was a damn fast car, but apparantly not that fast lol. I was surprised the first time thinking I was hot shit.

Hey cheesenuts, sorry to here you are only making 220 whp with a built FM2. Even if you are this great driver you consider yourself to be, there are stock engines running 8psi that are making more hp than you are with your money motor. Not only do you need to reconsider your power options, maybe you need to take some driving lessons too!:gay: :gay: :gay:
|
I think you got a cool car ... it was funny he called you cheesenuts though :). Honestly it didnt sound like you were joking though. My car at 8-9psi on Megasquirt was about as fast as a stock sti from a roll. Cant say anything more than that because for one, my car is on jacks right now, and two, i have not done much besides Autox racing with the car since buying it.
