So one of my 'friends' keeps bragging about his dodge magnum, that his parents bought. He said he took it to 132 in a mile long race thing at PIR in portland. The top speed is 140. Does that sound accurate, for him to go that fast? I searched, but only saw 1/4 times.

Some guy in my class with a V6 Charger was talking shit about how his car is faster then mine (My ETA). So one day after class we ended up beside eachother at a light.
He shut up after that, and I laughed because my 22 year old low on compression, shitbox, economy sedan BMW beat his $30,000 muscle car wannabe.
Point of this post, the ugly shit bag herse looking thing is slow.1985 325e 2.8 Turbo VEMSComment

Don't see why you couldn't hit 132 after a mile. I've hit 110 in my MG in less distance and it has 1/3 the HP (though probably 1/4 the weight. lol).
Top speed claims are lame though. Being able to achieve a high top speed does not make you fast.Comment

The straight out of turn C12 to turn C1 is 2330'. after the festival curves (C1-C3) is 585'. Add the aproximate space between the festival curves and those two distances is about 250'.
Totaling 3165.
Ask him where the mile is. The whole track is 2 miles.
In my Integra I was hauling ass if I hit 100 coming into the braking zone for C1....and that's coming out of turn C12.
If he was drag racing, he's full of shit...unless the car has some serious work done.Last edited by joshh; 02-09-2009, 11:40 PM.Your signature picture has been removed since it contained the Photobucket "upgrade your account" image.

Well, you shouldn't. And if you do care about one of my questions, I hope you don't lose sleep over it ;)
Hahaha, no. I never had the intent to race a 250hp grocery getter.
Agreed, and agreed. He doesn't want to learn how to drive a stick.
Why do III care? Simply because to see if he is lying a lot since he claims to know a whooooooole lot about cars, but only knows the names of a small, select few.

Hm interesting. I've never ran on a track there before, or anywhere as a matter of fact. And nope, its compleeeeeeeeeetly stock.
HAhahaha lolz :roll:
Do I even know you?
Yeah. So don't bother.
The only reason why I'm wondering is because he is annoying about cars and lies freq. about them. He is going to take his aunts "80,000 BMW WHICH is a 625i to portlands PIR and race it!" He just bags on BMWs all the time, and wondering if he was lying or not.
I know, there is not a 625i. Just quoting what he said.
All in all, this thread can go to sleep now seeing how I got a few honest responses. And the rest were just ignorant asshole remarks
