I dont believe it
i have a buddy that owns a Volkswagen R-32, he has done evrything to the engine possible. internal as well as btu's. but he says he raced and won against a Shelby GT 500 and i dont believe him.
is there any way this could be true? |

is this guy serious? assuming the elenor was parked, the r-32 would have a good possibility of tieing. Maybe the Elenor decided to give him a 3 day head start... then he'd lose by a bumper.

Who knows, I guess you can do anything with thousands of dollars. Thats always been my motto. I would bet against it happening though.

Re: I dont believe it
he could beat the driver, not the car; what are all his mods that you know of? a buddy of mine has a r32 its fairily quick but he says his 97 m3 was faster with minor upgrades

Re: I dont believe it
ok a fully built R32 will be a stock GT500, remember you said he had internals. AWD + near 400 HP in a car that weighs less then the GT500 makes for great 1/4 times. Seeing as they do low 14's stock and 13's on slicks and teh typical GT500 driver is doing mid 12's right now on stock tires and low 12's on slicks a fully built R32 will easily run w/ a GT500.

Re: I dont believe it
well he says he has everything done to this r-32, and i have seen him beat a corvette, (no it wasnt the new Z06). and he has a fast ass car. he has everything internal as in, cammed, bored, stroked.....well as he says at least. its not my car so im not exactly sure what he has done to it, and i dont talk to him everyday. and i also dont think that he has all wheel drive either.
i have yet to se this video, but i have a feeling if it is a true Gt500 and not a dress up, and he really did beat it. im thinkin it was a redlight to redlight race, something short, cuz im thinkin that r-32 might have the gt 500 on acceleration.....maybe........... but i still dont believe him and cant wait to see this video. |
