[solaris=amazing]

Lol, you'd have had yo ass whooped if it was a hemi charger....

[kioplo]

Haha, hey I didn't know you were on here man. (Project D on NT).

Anyway, yeah the Delta does come with a 5 and 6 speed transmission. It's just that is the six is more popular. Anyway yeah, it sounds like far out of reach for me to believe, and I research Tiburons all the time. Anyway, whatever. Good story reguardless.

Plans for another race, hopefully, this time on camera...

[turtlecrxsi]

Cool...

I was going down 3 lane Interstate Freeway running with a Passat, Maxima and BMW 5 series, all about same style, etc. at 80-85mph. Hemi truck (had big HEMI on side of it) pulls in front of me and I'm in the far right. Sedans go on, I slow up to maybe 75, I pull up next to the Hemi doing about 80-85, he looks at me like a badass and floors it, basically goes nowhere and wastes gas, and I blow by him and the other cars at 100-105 in no time... Honda CRX Si about 125 hp with mods in 2000lb car... Weight makes a difference...

That "POS" Charger would smoke both of 'em

sounds to me like the race went down as expected. Sure the HEMI is a great and powerful engine but put it in a big truck that is most likely geared for towing anyway and you don't have much of a race winner. They have great low end torque but the outcome was as expected wasn't it?

My friend has a 5.7 hemi truck and he stayed with me through about 1st and part of 2nd but as soon as I neared the end of 2nd I started putting trucklengths on him.

it still looks like something i shat out after eating my grandma's good home cooking...

[CBFryman]

i expected the hemi to win untill about half way when the tibby would start creaping back up due to the air resistnace and wieght difference... 4800lbs + Full tank of gas + the air resistance of a truck = hell past 60mph...but the tibby was ahead pretty much the whole way, except for right off the line. i didnt even notice the tibby missed 2nd gear.

Lined up with a few Hemi Rams.......

weight doesnt matter so much at high speeds. i thought u had like a b16 or b18 swap.. i dunno how much 125 hp does against 345hp even if he weighs 2 and a half times more than u.

[RedLightning]

But.. but... its got a hemi, I call BS, hemis never loose. I heard one "hemi" owner say that since his was a hemi it could take out ls1s, even though they have more hp....Yea...

someone doesnt know much about physics...

4800lb TRUCK...the faster you go the more energy it takes to accelerate a given mass, on top of this we are on earth, earth has an atmosphere, therefor the faster you go the more power ot takes to brake the wind.

Trucks have a big lumpy cab high off the ground and then a drop off which creats a nice vacume...a lot of air resistnace at high speed.

Tiburon, on the other hand, has a nice low profile and may have 6" of ground clearance, on top of a nice smooth shape that slices though the air like an areofoil.

I was standing at the finish line, the Tiburon created a nice wind going buy me at about a buck 5 and the Hemi was like standing in a hurricane doing about 100...

and like i said...he is luckey if he is putting 300hp to the ground...and you have to remember the rams have 20's and the tires arent all that low profile... Tiburon has 17's (i think) and low profileish tires, a lot less rotating mass there.

still, i expected the ram to pull ahead off the line...it got a jump then the tibby crept all up and past it quite quickly, a surprise to me. i didnt know who was gonna win but the way the race played out was a huge surprise.

However i dont know what the final drive ratio is on the Ram and it may not be that low.

either way we are thinking about a race this comming monday on film

[CBFryman]

wow i feel like an idiot
i thought you where talkng about our race :slaps self:
