2009 "Your Car VS" Thread

[feistyacorn]

Here is some pics of my baby! Its a 2006 Grand Prix GXP. I dont have any mods done to it yet, but I would like to go intake and exhaust. It has a 5.3L V8 with 303hp, HUD, navagation, power everything. It is a blast to drive! I have only played with a few cars. One time a guy in a little turbo civic took me by suprise. I didnt realize that he had a turbo and I was just shifting it into second when he decided to play, so I gave it a little and before i knew it we were doing 67 in a 25 (race only lasted a block).

Great vids man. That looked like a blast!

Don't have a very good pic of my truck. Here is the front:

And here is the back:


It's a 1992 dodge dakota wiht 75k miles on it. It has a 318 5.2l v8 pumping out an amazing 235hp. It gets 14mpg mixed driving. The thing I like about my truck is that it sounds BADASS. I'm going to get a glasspack in the near future... Then it should sound even better. (but not as good as a regularly priced muffler...)

Do rentals apply? I had a Dodge R/T once in Georgia that ran pretty well, I smoked a small Mercades couldn't tell what it was by the grill I ran it up to a little over 120.

Then one time I got an 05' Grandprix with the supercharged 3.8L V6 it was the newest one at the time with the gen. 5 M90 supercharger. I was driving around at night and had a Sunfire pull up beside me and start reving the engine. He had the fart can and all. I smoked him off the line and into second. He followed me into a parking lot and asked what I had done to it. I laughed and told him it was a rental car. Make sure to turn off the A/C when doing a burnout in a FWD car.

I have had a few fast cars one was an 89 Thunderbird Supercoupe with a 5speed that I did quite a few things to (OK a lot), and I have a 78 El Camino that was pretty much stock except for the intake carb, distributor, cam (210, 218 duration @ .050 .495" lift) and a 2200 stall convertor and 3.08 rear. The exhaust was still manifolds but I ran 2 1/4" into a flowmaster Y then a Torque Tech 3" single (one side of a dual system) exhaust and a Flomaster 3 chamber muffler. It ran 14.1's at 95. The SC's best run was 12.78 @ 107.

I used to do a lot of street racing, but had a few bad things I saw happen. I had a friend that got his truck shot up because he won and saw a few bad accidents so the only time I ran my own cars was at Baytown. I don't really like street racing anymore (little older and wiser I guess), I had an idiot loose control of his car doing about 80 and just about killed a friend and I and burned down our house, and he didn't have a drivers license or insurance, Effin' illegals

I finished wiring the old 68 bronco from Monster Garage a few months ago They are cool I like old and simple. These were some pics when I first started.

It was pretty cool but I was suprised at how bad of a hack job it was. None of the gauges were connected, only a few things worked the Fuel injection was so rigged that I ended up having to go through all the wiring because one of those guys broke a wire inside the insulation. I ended up stripping everything that had copper in it, and rewiring the entire system.

13K isn't bad I think this guy payed 16K for this one.

Currently run 38" baja claws on the back with skinnies on the front. It is having some fuel issues right now, but when I ran it on aviation fuel with restrictor plates it managed a 7.93 @ 101mph on the home-made 1/4 mile track. I did not use the "nitros" but it was definitely pulling hard. The time looks a little funny as it layed over a bit on the top end, I just do not think the HEI distributor can handle 9700rpm.

As far as competition goes, I raced a rocket powered grocery cart, it was close, but the cart wrecked as it had that gimpy front caster that plauges many carts. I have a feeling that it was a walmart cart, I may not have such luck if I line up against a target cart...

I have a feeling the buick you have may take me, as my ride is rear wheel drive, and you cannot compare to a front wheel drive car for off the line traction.

LMAO!!!! Linc, I think your problem is that you are tight in, loose out...
