Word around the campfire is......

gearing/torque can win races too.

This I agree with you on, as it is why I was recently able to walk a G35 on the street, under similar circumstances to my 3000GT kill.

Pity it takes so long to get there. We all know how often you get to drive 187 mph on public roads... Seriously, you and the catalog racing, what gives? Your ETA is slower than your girlfriends 3000gt, WE GET IT ALREADY! Your ETA is slower than my IX. And my IS? Please, we've been through this.

Aerodynamics are why our vr-4 is able to hit 187mph, even though it weighs almost 2 tons.

This can't have been Ben, could it?

At the end of the day, one guy goes to sleep as a ricer.

I don't tend to lump supra's, rx-7's, 3000gt's, or nsx's in as ricers.... they are actual japanese sports cars.

You wouldn't be hard pressed to find many e30's, mustangs, and camaro's that outrice pretty much any of those "riceboxes" as some might call them.

Musta been a pretty shitty driver

eruo models ftw all day long

yeah you need the euro models to stand a chance against anything JDM, you fool! WTF were you thinking?!? :loco:

racing isn't all about putting down whp guys. even straight line racing isn't 100% horsepower, or horsepower to weight. Gearing, driver capabilities, weight, horsepower, torque...

gearing/torque can win races too. And in all seriousness let us not forget drag coefficients. Aerodynamics are why our vr-4 is able to hit 187mph, even though it weighs almost 2 tons. And you can't hit 187 without enabling the electronic controlled suspension and lowering the active aero chin spoiler and rear diffuser.

You'd be suprised how much better our flying bricks fare on the highway between stock ride height and being almost on the ground. Wind under car = suck.






...plus the bimmer was way heavier coz all the bitches. He was stackin the ho's. too many bitches when you drive a bimmer. The asian chick in the 300zx only weighed 63 pounds. The 12 european supermodels in the e30 probably added like... at least 700lbs.

More info on the e30... sounds like it was a turbo eta or something. My car made 240 whp with 3 compression rings last year...

it was a windy day, and his car, based on extreme aerodynamics originally, was easily able to slip by the flying brick.
