Anytakers?

If you're talking about cocoabrova...his car is not a Mazda 6...
I don't know of anybody on here that does have a Mazda 6 either

I have had it at the track before. Faster then most would guess.
And I am pretty sure I could take a Mazda 6 (V6 auto) but probably would get beaten by the manual trans version, if the person could drive!:D....most people can't drive a manula very well

ooohhh....Not bench race!!! Compare on paper? Thats way too fun and exciting!:rolleyes: Why don't I just watch paint dry???

Not sure if you've ever raced before but I have and its fun.
I have the road test of the Grand Am and my times are faster at Race City.

Its even more fun if you race someting compareable to your won car--then its a good race and not a masacare.

Why the 6? Well I drove an automatic and thought it was a dog.
I think the Grand AM GT can take it. 175hp VS 220--the 3400 V6 has more torque at should be stringer down low--while the 6 is pretty high rpm stuff.

And I would welcome a race from other mid sized V6 cars too.
It would be better to try arrange a race then show up at Race City and just hope there is someting you'd like to race.

Ill race you on the 11th of june. We'll see how close you can get to beating a "crappy 4 banger"... :D

what do you have?

05-30-2004, 08:34 PM
Im pretty sure it says under "car I drive". It's a 240sx with a fuel managed SR20DET but only 5.5psi of boost. Im sayin that if you're gonna be there we should race, and you'll see that 4 banger's aren't that slow. Ill be there cuz i want a "baseline" E.T.

Now I always wondered, was he talking about the Standalone system being 10,000 or the whole thing?

Hey Buddy....please don't start misquoting me....I never said 4 bangers were " slow" OR crappy. So give me a break.

I am smart enough to know that some are quite fast. And I have heard of the SR20DET swap.

I raced one at Toronto Motorsport park. He must have been having some problems though, wasn't running too great. And he got lots of wheelhop. Neat though.

The North American 240's should have came with that engine in the first place.

And to the guy in the Neon---unless your spraying or are turbo/supercharged....good luck!

:devil: I'll try to make it out.

Sorry man, I'd give a bolted on 1st gen neon about a 90% chance of beating you.:dunno:

Reading this thread, I can't help to notice that we have quite a few assholes here lol.

Bench racers gets picked on, and avro206 being responsible and looking for a race at the track gets picked on. Can't ever win can you? :)

Hate you break your fast and furious ricer bubble...

Most drag cars are automatics.

Your not bursting any bubble. Yes, I agree most drag racing cars are automatics.

But people go out to Secret Street with their daily drivers--and some happen to be manuals. So wouldn't call a car that goes out there a drag car (unless it was)

Yes rage2--this thread is a joke now. I just want a good race (a Maxda 6 would be nice but anything else that would be competive would be fine) so right, I cannot win. Unless, maybe, at the track! :D

ACX--I am not sure what a first gen Neon has for bolt ons or how fast they run with them. Do you know?


Lastly, anyone care to guess whats the best time for the Grand AM GT??

Lennon
05-31-2004, 07:16 PM
Can't guess, have no idea what their numbers are. Never liked them enought to care.

But if you like, I'll take my stock 1986 300ZX and race you. Non-turbo, nothing special, just my daily driver. Not really fast, but fast enough for me.

Compare your horses to mine.... (I'm sure you have more)

I'm 160hp with 186ft/torque

I hope for your case you beat me, especially being an 18 year old car.

175hp and 205lbs-ft of torque. Is your car a 5 speed or automatic?

Nothing too wrong with 18 year old cars. As long as the mileage isn't super excessive and its been taken care of --it should run allright...I think:dunno:

Lennon
05-31-2004, 08:27 PM
5 speed, 206,000kms. Babied.
