Me vs 370Z Nismo and Dodge Caliber SRT4
#132
So what I gathered from this thread..
05 Turbo'd Focus is faster than a C SRT4, G35, G37, 370z, bolt on 2v, any N/A V6/I4, and even the bugatti veyron super sport?
**** me sideways, this kid talks alot of smack.
and 4k for a single turbo kit? Man I wouldnt even put $400 into a Focus, unless it has SVT badges/certificates
Video.... but no in car.. just him talking.

If he lived near me, I would take him to his track of choice and run him... with my all winter tires on...

Mr. E where the heck are you from? Id be willing to run you this coming spring/summer. Surely you will beat my little German kraut burner that has a big fat snail fitted. This Fuhkis you speak of sounds like a beast.... If you consider buying a faster cooler car in the future I recommend this Termie killer!

So I finally got some real cars to race me, not cause I thought I would win, just wanted to see how I would do as my set up is new. I dont count the modded Civics, Accords, TCs I have dusted off to be real races, so wont even bother to post those haha. In case you dont know, I have a 2005 Ford Focus ZX3 with a turbo kit putting down 191whp/177wtq at 8psi. I turned my boost up yesterday to 11psi which put me at 223whp/225wtq and decided to mess around and see how my stock clutch held up as it was slipping a bit before.
The 370Z guy was cool. We were both at a light and I asked him if we could run up to 70 cause I wanted to see how I stacked up. He actually held back a laugh and then looked around and I said there were no cops around and he agreed. Light went green and he instantly put about 3 cars on me off the bat but didnt pull away any more. Stayed that way to 70mph. I think he was expecting to kill me alot worse than that, he waved and took off.
Caliber SRT4 was racing with a Camry LE and probably getting bored. I stayed behind them for a few blocks and then pulled behind the Camry at a light with the Caliber to my left. Light went green and the Camry took off quicker than the Caliber, so I was on his bumper waiting to pull in front of the Caliber and take off. The guy in the caliber flashed his high beams a couple teams signaling me to get over I guess, so I did. I was at the top of second and as soon as I pulled into his lane he was on my ***. I went into 3rd and started to pull him. Let off around 80 with him about 3 cars behind. His lights kept getting further back so I thought that was it, but I come to the next light ready to turn left and he comes up quick and gets right behind me. Now I see there are 2 guys in it. Light goes green and I give it light gas to see if hes going to play and hes right on my bumper. So I go into 2nd and pull wide to get into the far lane, giving him the other lane. I give it too much gas, so I am squealing tires around this turn but finally get traction and in full boost in 2nd with him at about my driver side door. I put about 5-6 cars on him by the top of 3rd at 85mph when I let off. So that was my fun for the evening.

As I said in another thread...Just because someone owns a faster car doesnt mean they know how to drive it. I have video from the track yesterday of a Henessey Vette doing a 13.6@110mph quarter mile run LOL (wanna see it?). That thing should be at least a full second faster. I also saw 05+ Mustang GTs running high 14s and one in the 16s, explain that. A quarter mile run from a dig on a track is also far different than stoplight racing people on a street. So yea, just because someone you run across on a street that wants to race has a faster car doesnt mean they know how to drive it.
