You live in a dream world. That hp with your weight is about a 100mph trap speed. Give or take 1mph or so. Its weaksauce. Trap speed is what determines how you do from a roll. Right now I will bet a well driven S2000 will scare you from a rolling punch. I used to think my car was the **** too on the street until I took it to the track. Found out I was racing people who werent trying, lmao.

Update on my car: Going LS1, 'nuff said.
because an M3 going 75 to my 55 and passing me like that and taking it up to 150+ isn't trying... [&:]

if I live in a dreamworld it must be real as **** then... I hope I never wake up

You wont hit 150+ unless you are deep into OD. Also, if you beat a car with 50hp more than you from a roll (roughly = weight) at a high speed, you can get he let off around 90 and watched you shoot by laughing. No way it happened. I have ridden in M3's and GT's. NO COMPARISON in the upper rpms. 245 whp WONT CUT IT. My old LT1 Trans Am had around that and I promise you I wasnt in the M's league.

maybe if you watched the video... I diddn't blow by at all.... he pulled the flyby and all I did was try to shut it down, and if you watched the video fully you would know he was trying..
I could tell he let off in the first sequence because he saw I had a camera and let off when I started making ground... that's why I stopped filming... but then he tried the flyby so I picked it back up and filmed him actually trying...
he diddn't really go anywhere though
funny... when people call BS on kill stories and then call BS on a legit video... kinda makes you wonder if they are just jealous lol

I pulled a Z28 LS1 in a car that barely traps 98 mph, so I guess anything is possible on the street (pulled him from 75-105 mph). But definitely not the norm.

The only thing that video showed my was that even though he did a flyby and you gave chase, he continued to walk you. I saw no instance of you stopping the pull. In the first segment the only reason you started catching him was either because a car pulled in front of him off camera or he let off. Im glad you didnt kill someone while filming that race. I hope you are that lucky every time you drive and film at the same time.

bharsen if you wouldof turned o/d off eariler u would of kept up with him much better,when you turn o/d off it is like down shifting in a manual...o/d puts you to the highest gear to save gas mileage.

then you diddn't see the video... I knew he let off in the first segment... which is why I stopped filming... I'm not like that... but the reason he let off is because he saw me making ground and breaking even along with the camera.... then he did the flyby... you honestly diddn't watch it that far did you? with me cruising at 55 and him flying by at 75-80 he got about 2 cars and then went absolutely nowhere, and if you payed close attention I started to pull ever so little and then I reached the last of my gear and had to turn OD back on... after O/D was on I stayed with him with nobody pulling anywhere and at the very end I started inching forward... but I'm not expecting people to look that closely at it.... I'm expecting people to call BS around every turn... shame that other mustang guys don't believe in the car they have and call BS at everything

the point of this post wasn't nessisarily "oh look at my car!"
it was more along the lines of.. "don't underestimate a 2V'

Do you really think I didn't see that? You where pretty lucky you're modded, or he would have killed you...

I am just saying people like that deserve a smackdown... If you want to race, race fair... Flyby's suck. Unless you are flying because you need to get somewhere in a hurry...
yeah the reason I posted it is to prove paper dosn't really matter.. I posted kill stories in the past of me taking 5.7 GTO's and Magnum RT's by 3rd or 4th gear when they got a car on me off the line

some people called BS because they have alot more HP than me on paper, for the record I had 245RWHP/260TQ... and that is enough to even out a 333FHP car flyby and definitely kill him from a stop IMO

lol probably... I guess people mistook the point of this post, I'm not comparing my car to an M3... not even that one... the main comparison I'm making is a underated 2V compared to something like an M3... that was one of the points, the other two points I was making were the true N/A 2V top speed, and how the 4.10's don't affect it at all
if I just did a top speed run everyone would be like whoopee maxing out the limiter.... but with that ///M there it gives a good show while still proving the points and gives you a scale on how fast I actually do get up to that speed... like I said when I stepped on it during the flyby I was at 55, when the camera freaked out I was sailing at 130... and keeping the M3 from pulling.... it's not one of those "I would have won if" posts like everyone is making it out to be

atleast he tried to catch up.. im pretty sure he wasnt expecting to fly by him

put 300+ rwhp in that mustang watch wat happens... that m3 will be seeing tail lights

they are quick but that guy is a tool for not even lining up. i bet the GT would have kept up but the topend belongs to the m3.. they dont have 180mph speedo's for nothing

unless we have a software upgrade, we are limited to 155mph[>:]
