Walked an R32

Not much to say, always wondered how I'd do against one.

I was cruising home this morning when I heard this loud exhaust droning out the movie I was watching. I'm pretty sure the exhaust was afermarket, unless it's that loud stock. So I looked in my mirror and saw golf headlights. I didn't know it was an R32 until I moved over to the right and saw his exhaust. I moved back into the left lane behind him.

We didn't get a lot of chances. These stupid idiots kept hogging the left lane. Hello, wtf is so hard to understand about using the left lane as the passing lane and not to cruise below the speed limit on the highway? Not just one, but three cars!

Anyway, we got an opening in the right lane. I heard the sound note of the exhaust change when he downshifted and I followed him to the right lane. We started off at about 70-75 mph, perfect spot for my third gear. He was about 1.5 - 2 carslengths ahead when he started. We passed the idiots that were cruising in the fast lane, in the slow lane :disappoin

I gained maybe 1/2 to a car in third moved over into the left lane and shifted to 4th. I pulled pretty good, I was maybe 1-2 cars ahead of him after it was said and done (125 mph) So, I gained about 3-4 cars on him at high speeds alltogether. I had to slow down because traffic was building up again and I had to take the next exit. I'm pretty sure down low it would be more interesting with AWD.

nice, good run

BAH lucky bitch with your movies and luxurious car. :boink:

good kill

They are slow and drivers are so cocky!

along with 99.9% of vw drivers.

Lol I love this guy's passive/aggressive compliments...
"that car you raced was slow as fuck...good kill!" :eek7:

Nice kill....although I was disappointed to see it was a golf when i was hoping for a skyline.:icon16:

Well, mid to low 14s at almost 100 mph isn't exactly fast, but it's not "slow." That's like saying Bulldog's Cobalt SS is slow, which it's not (look at his list of kills)

I see more pricks in Audis and BMWs. :iceslolan

Me too...

But honestly, keep your eyes on the road instead of the movies...

Screw that, I don't care about other lives. I watch movies while going 140 mph all the time, nothing wrong with that. :grinno:

14's are slow...?

Not to Honda owners.




:grinno:

yeah ppl who hog that left lane really suck, here in denver where i live it's actually now illegal to be in the left lane unless your passing people, supposedly it causes road rage when ppl are held up, i hate it when i finally get up to like 120 and some idiot is there and i have to slow down like a billion times

Not to Honda owners.

geuss you dont know what your talking about after all then.

LMFAO so true

infact last time i had a 13 sec slip i demanded to talk to the owner of the track and told him lights must be of honads can't leave the 14s and a supra owner was with me bitching about his 11s :p

I know low 14s isn't impressive, but it's faster than about 90% of cars out there.

Last generation Mustang GTs, 350Zs and E36 M3s aren't fast, but they aren't "slow" either.

in my book

14's are decent
13's are quick
12's and faster your start to get "fast"

even today 12's are not as fast as it used to be.

I never said it was fast, I just said that there are SO many cars that are a lot slower out there. low 14s for a daily driven car is not bad. Of course there are faster cars out there, but 14s isn't bad.

Exactly how many 12 second cars did you see on the road today?

I rest my case :rolleyes:

13s stopped being fast when you get can it for less then 20K new

hell soon 40K ish will net most sportier cars in 12s

cars are getting faster then ever before

not to say a 14sec car can't be fun my jeep i love to death and its probbbly mid 16s on good day.

I saw a shit load of 13 sec cars every soccor mom in her vette is a possible 13 sec one 12 sec cars a few honestly.

I dont know where you come from but around here theres dozens and dozens of them, honda's, dsm's, fbodys, mustangs...the list goes on...many of them deep in the 12's alot even in the 11's

That may be the case, but that's not what I was getting at...how many of those cars do you actually see on the road in an average day of driving? I'm getting at the fact that speed is relative...a 14 second car, believe it or not, is faster than 85-90% of the cars you will encounter in an average day of driving...unless you are now going to tell me that the streets where you live are magic 11 second DSM sanctuaries where they are allowed to roam the streets free of anything slower than 13 second cars...

Exactly my point. If you're at a track, a 14 sec car is nothing special. On the street, a low 14 second car is faster than a lot of cars. It's not "fast" but it's not "slow"

all the cars i were talking about are street driven, and alot daily driven or could be, true theres alot of slow cars too but there are alot of fast ones, theres just not a handfull around here theres alot.

I can count the 12 second cars I've seen on the roads with one hand. Most are exotics or well modded and you always know it when you see and/or hear them coming. The only 11 second daily drivers I know of are street bikes. Not to say there aren't a few 11 second street cars out there functioning as daily beaters, but come on...you figure in the time and money to get to that point and you can bet the owner has enough brains and money to afford a POS for his daily commute.

i think it all depends on the car too....

A 13 second ford taurus= pretty impressive

A 13 second LS1= Meh, anybody with a decent launch and mediocre shifting skills could pull it off....(no offense to any LS1 drivers that can't break the 13 second barrier......you suck at driving though....you need to practice......practice alot) :p

unless you are now going to tell me that the streets where you live are magic 11 second DSM sanctuaries where they are allowed to roam the streets free of anything slower than 13 second cars...


Ahhhh......DSM sanctuary...that sound's nice!

I'm obvioulsy not in the 11's but I might be able to break into the 13's. :uhoh: Can I still come? :p

I live in the same area as Pun (civichbsi) and we have 9 second daily driven street cars around here. So basically..if you wanna play..your car better atleast run mid 12s or you may as well stay home.

Yes, we will ship you off to this magical place where you and your DSM can frolic with your own species! :icon16:
