okay they are holding their annual USCC. here are the participants, and their upgrades. but remember this is the ultimate test. its about drag, track, drivability as a street car, and even fuel consumption is considered. tell me what you guys think of the winnin order would be. here are the contenders.(there is a skyline in it too)
1)Hyundai Tiburon: twin engine, twin turbo. has 2 automatic transmissions, and burns Methenol. (NOS) and does 10 sec quarter miles.
2)2000 Nissan Sentra SE Turbo. this thing is running on the SR20DE engine with turbo running at more then 300hp at the flywheel. it also has upgraded with brembo brakes and has the usual suspension upgrades.
3)1999 Ferrari 360 Modena. this thing is basically stock but with a added width, and with Ferrari competition springs, along with a Tubi Exhaust.
4)1988 Mustang LX. this baby has a 6 point roll cage soo that the chassis can withstand the 600hp. its a perfect drag racer and the suspension is tuned for it too.
5)2000 Acura Integra Type R. this baby is supercharged and has 260hp at the wheels. and does 13 second quarter miles. this car is tuned specifically for club racing. this guy is also a very very good racer. sooo he might win with his skills.
6)1985 MR2. this baby is super charged and turbo charged. most of you should know how that combo works soo i'll leave that detail out. and this also has the usual suspension tuning such as lowering springs, coil overs, anti roll bars.
7)1972 Datsun 510. this baby has a RX-7 13B rotary engine swaped in it. it also runs on a HKS prototype duel ball bearing turbo.and has a full line of Cusco suspension parts. once again, the usual suspension tuning is involved.
8)1994 Supra TT. this car has a fully custom suspension system that can actually make this heavy A$$ car handle good at the track. not sure about the horsepowr but from the mods that i see i'm guessing htat it is atleast 450 at the wheels.
9)1996 R33 Skyline GT-R. this bad boy is takin the place of Seam Morris's Black Bird R34. this bad boy has 505hp at the wheels with 18psi of boost (around 1.1 bar) on pump gas. this car can easily handle 24psi. (around 1.8 bars) this car has also been tuned to handle the corners extremely well with a 16 way adjustable compression and rebound coil overs.
10)1990 300ZX. this bad boy can run 11.9 sec 1/4 miles at 114mph in full street trim. but they also say that the car has the suspension tunin to back it up in the turns casue its beening tuned by one of the most respected Z tuners in the U.S. and this car is tuned to the part where (money is not an issue kind of level).
soo okay guys. let me know hwat you guys think. here are my pics.
1) ferrari

I was thinking the R33 with that boost, but they all come down to the driver and whether the mechanic did his/her job right.
Close race, and I agree the Ferrari has a very good chance, but I want the R33 to succeed.
