I've raced and won against:
undefeated against 2nd Gen Integras
NX2000
86 Mustang GT
BMW 318
98ish Cavalier Z24
Thunderbird 5.0
88ish Prelude

I've raced and lost against:
99ish Firebird
New Dodge Dakota R/T(that was embarassing)
(I've never raced anyone else I thought could beat me :P)

 

your car is a gt right. how did you beat a 98ish Cavalier Z24. i raced a stock one and i lost. Thunderbird 5.0 should and would kill you really bad. sorry to say this to you but i have raced a thunderbird and a cavalier z24 and i wish that i did not.

 

I have to agree that your list of beat offs is bull ****. The only one you may have beat is the NX200. Theres no way youd beat a T-bird or crapalier. Those pedals may make you think theres nore HP, but theres not.

 

Why is it so hard to believe that I beat a Cavalier? They're not that fast. My car does 1/4 mile in 16.3, and I'm a good driver, so it's not hard for me to beat people who's car may be a little faster than mine.

And the 5.0 Thunderbird is a joke. SO NOT FAST. Just because it has 225 horsepower, doesn't make it fast. It's heavy and automatic.

Don't underestimate a good driver. A good launch makes all the difference when you're racing up to 100kph(60mph). Huge horsepower advantages only make a difference when you go faster. I can do a 1-2 shift faster than anyone I know too.

Also, just because we have the same motor, doesn't mean you have the exact same horsepower. Every motor is different, and I was blessed with a gem. An ex of mine had a 91 GT, and the best I could get her car to do in the 1/4 mile was 17.2.

Besides, why would I make those up? Geez, you guys act like the idiots from Toronto Protege Club.

 

ouch

 

I believe him. :tears flag down:... btw... do you ever have anything good to say??

 

Why do you beleive everything every clown has to post? For all those mods you list and you dont even know what power shifting is.........More bullshit maybe? Oh well, ill leave captain save a hoe alone.

 

Thunderbirds are slow. They've got a lot of power but they're helluva heavy! They can be made to be fast, though, so it really depends.

 

If both cars are stock:

Thunderbird: 210hp (not the HO 5.0 in the T-bird), 3900lbs, 19.5 lb/hp

Protege: 140hp, 2600lbs(or less), 18.571 lb/hp

Add in a slushy Ford automatic, and you have a Mazda victory.

 

Ok please enlighten me... explain to me what "power shifting" is.

 

Okay Mixmaster funky bunch marky mark! Can we get a break down of the torque while were at it? I used to own a 1985 T-bird 5.0 auto, and it will kick the proteges ***.

 

why does everyone think where they beat a car twice their cylinders and liters thats its bs? not all drivers are the best and the cars are heavy as #$&%. you do the 10lbs = 1 hp saying and the 5.0's obvisouly weighing at least 1000lbs or more would be an equivalent to 100hp.

 

I can't stand driving in a straight line. Racing through a town... much more fun.

 

The last time me and my friend raced through a "town" he totalled his '97 Civic EX turbo. He was racing somebody and wasn't paying attention so he hit stopped traffic at a pretty high speed. The engine went into flames... scary stuff. We're lucky to still be here. Keep it safe out there.

 

Ive never seen a 10,000 pound mustang!
