Hey all,
i'm kinda new here, posted a froum once a few weeks ago but haven't
been here since. Just looking to get my name out as i plan on being
a steady participant.
So on to my story.
I was out drivin downtown at about 11 o'clock in the Bonneville, just
rollin along lookin for something to do. I'm on 8th ave i think, heading
out of downtown to hit the exits for memorial and crowchild, about
7 blocks in, stopped at a red light. On my left pulls a 2002 Jetta with
a kid and a backwards hat. On my right pulls a 2000-2001 Grand Am GT with an older guy driving. Both cars were revin to beat heck, and i figured hell, i've got a supercharger, why not?
The light turned green and i hit it. I've never punched it in the car before this off the start, and i tell ya, that 4 speed auto front drive
supercharged V6 REALLY kicks!! So anyways, we all kinda squeeled
the tires and that, and the Jetta actually stayed with me better then the
Grand Am, which is was surprised at.
We hit the lights perfect, and it was a drag race straight down to the
exit of Crowchild where i turned off. I whipped them both, and the
top speed I hit was right around 200 km/hour...........i think that's
around 120-140 mph, somewhere in there.
My question to you guys, is how did the VW Jetta keep up better then
the Grand Am GT? I imagined the Grand Am has a far superior horsepower ratio, not to mention more torque. The only thing the
VW would have is the fact that it's lighter.
What happened??
