Default Pulled a New Edge Till 90mph...

We were goin out for dinner last night. Had my cruise set at 70 on the interstate. I go to pass a New Edge v6 stang with cruise on. He gets on and off the throttle seein im in a stang also. THe guy sitting next to me ( we went on a double date with our girls ) was like show him what yours can do. So i nail it all the way to the floor (Auto) and i get a good jump. Both us seemed to get on it at the same time. I pulled about 1/4 of a car till about 90 then he gained back on me. His head light was at the door till about 90-95 then he pulled ahead. THen i let off. I have never takin this car past 85 lol.

I guess even with 203K miles, my car is still runnin good. Thats the first race ive done since ive owned the car. lol I try to stay away from racing since i got a street racing ticket in my Jetta. But no one was around so i said what the heck. lol

From driving my brothers sn-95 v6, it seemed to have good top end, but just no low end power...

The jetta was modified pretty good. Not ricer either. me and my dad did it. IT was lowered 2 inches, Borla Car back Exhaust, Ram Air Intake, Short Shift Kit, Cam, and some other bolt ons. IT ran pretty good. I loved that car till the motor blew.

BUt it seems vice versa. My Sn-95 seems like good low end but now top end. But thats probably the gutted cats. Idk.
