Default Almost raced a mazdaspeed 6 last night

I was driving up to the gas station and some guy in a blue mazdaspeed 6 was shootin his BOV at me trying to taunt me into a race. I would have happily put him in his place, but my car is still running super rich on a break-in tune. I hope he doesn't think I was scared of his turbo. I really wanted to race, but not at the risk of blowing up my tranny/motor. [:@]

Christ, you would have murdered him. The Speed3 is actually a hair quicker (than the 6). Whatever, that wouldn't have even been remotely close.

Nanaki what are ur mods? We do not even know how modded that 6 speed was? After all still and turboed car and can be fast preety easy so i really dont see why a speed6 would not be able to take a 2v new edge.

He's somewhere around the 600rwhp mark (I think, or not too far off).

i like how people assume the mazda is stock. what if they mazda had an upgraded turbo? lol

most likely he doesnt. you wouldve owned him.

btw, there isnt such thing as a blue mazdaspeed. they come only in black, silver, red, cherry black (purplish black), white and dark grey. maybe it was a dark grey or a turbo'd regular mazda6?

then, it would have been a slightly less slow mazda?

hehe, you guys are the same as the guys on the Evolution and SRT4 forums.

it is just as fast as a regular 05+ stock stang gt. maybeby a hairless from a roll. with an upgraded turbo it runs 12s...about the same as a blown GT.

the speed6 is AWD. I would like to see you run one from a dig with that thing on ur sig.

BWAHAHAH!!!

hey guys, guys, guys... "AWD IS KEENGGGG!"

lol, hate to break it to you pal but a drag racing package is consisting of a RWD car with slicks, an AWD launch doesn't have **** on a properly setup RWD car

the OP has a 600ishRWHP fully built 4.6L, please sit there and tell me you think this car was daily driving in a 500+ AWHP 4 banger [sm=icon_rofl.gif]
