Crushed a Camaro
Crushed a Camaro
After work yesterday me and my friend decided to setup a friendly race. He has a 90's something camaro V6 auto with a hooker muffler. We decided to go from a 20 roll. I was in a pretty good point formy car and ended up getting a good launch. We both were even into 2nd gear. After that I started pulling hard. I had nearly 3 cars on him by the time we stopped at somewhere near 70.
He's got around 150k miles compared to my 2.5k
so his poor camar ois a bit tired. None the less I spanked him and it both surprised me and him. I figured it would be a much closer race then it was, but I guess the good ole balt came to win.
Today I raced my other friend's 90 something Jeep Cherokee V6 auto with headers. We went from a dig and I totally destroyed him by buses to about 100mph, which I knew I would since my old 1.8L Nissan would beat him.
Next Opponet: Friends BMW Z3 or a cocky kid with a turbo diesel.
............anybody ever race a turbo diesel ford?

yeah i have raced a turbo diesel ford f-250 and a duramax 2500....both my buddies have them... I have the duramax beat, tighter race when the ford is in stage 3 turbo....i have a 2.2l you should have no proble, with a 2.4
Cherokees have Inline sixes.
Low compression too...tell him to boost it...I have seen built 4.0s put down 11s in a wrangler chassis
Oh and keep rolling with him after 100 I bet he'll catch up
Them things can bury the speedo's quite easily

i would be careful with those turbo diesels. those things can have some serious power with just a reflash. i know the few i saw at the track were running in the mid 13s, and they were supposedly the slower ones.
I just want to see how I run against him, because he's know at my school for "the kid with the beemer". I want to be the kid who beat the beemer.

Our cars are COMPLETE DOGS after 125
Any other motor will beat you/be real close but the advantage is still to him.
