RE: My truck vs local ricers
 
My truck works pretty good for takin on ricers with little or no modifications but if I really wanna take out some high performance ricers I pull out my 66' mustang. That's about the only CAR i'll drive. pure American muscle

I like the newer body style Supras I dnt see any of them around here though.The fastest import I've driven was prolly a Type R Acura haven't really had a chance to drive 2 many fast imports.The new Skyline GT-R is impressive though its suppose to be faster than a vette.

Yeah I've seen a couple videos of those things smoking all 4 tires coming off the line. They definately rock.

Anyways, getting back on topic. As far as eating ricers goes, I've only raced 1 and that was a Chevy Cobalt which I completely desimated right off the line. I thought those were supposed to be quick but my truck was bone stock when I spanked it.:D

The fastest ricer car I've been in was a CRX with a built Acura Type R engine. It had enough ball to keep the tires smoking thru third. It would eat Stangs and Z28s all day long.

my mustang has a built 351 in it. I can roast the tiresthrough everygear. I'm not for sure but the approx. 0 to 60 is 3-4 seconds. but i've never really tested it. I can only handle it up to 135 mph though

charger im honestly a little suprised you beat the Cobalt bone stock. Was it the supercharged version?My buddy has one with the 5 speed and I saw it beat his dads 05 V8 Stang. but since then the Stang has gotten a supercharger of its own and just plays with the Cobalt.

i think the fastest one around here is a 240sx with some kind of new motor and a turbo and one hellacious blow off valve... i kinda want to turbo my truck just so it will make that cool "whoosh" sound when it shifts lol

theres a supercharged civic running around too though, and a twin turbo 300zx...

Yeah we have a lot running around here too. There is 240sx that has a huge turbo on it.There is a mild eclipse that looks really nice.we also have a twin turbo 300zx. a few Cobalt SS's. an acura RSX. one 3000gt. there is whole pack of RX7's. The fastest one I have seen is a poop brown RX7. this car looks terrible but flat out flys!

My girlfriend has a POS Ecort GT with ehaust and intake. I nabbed a Cobalt (non supercharged) with her escort. By the time the guy got in font of me the escort was already winding out and I just pulled away from him. I hate that car but it redlines at 7,000 and moves pretty good for what it is.

No the Cobalt I raced was naturally aspirated. Actually I also raced a modded Silverado at the same time and both of them got the jump on me but I left the Cobalt like nothing and reeled in the Silverado in about a block. Ofcourse before I threw my exhaust on hereit had a more guts off the line thanit does now.
