SSvs??

Alright here goes, in my travels, I have come across a few victims!!

05 Dodge ram with the cummings turbo diesel, guy starts chirping his tires at a light, i was like ok, see you later man.........

Some kid pulls up beside me in a 350z with a body kit, i didnt want to race really, because where it was i got a ticket for the same thing last year in my old car, but i said what the hell, he starts going, then i pull up next to him, and he floors it, i was like the hell with that, so i stomped on it, chirped when they hit second, meanwhile we are going up hill at about 55 in a 40, i hit 70 and let off, because i got my ticket for 75 in the 40 in the same spot, he was pretty pissed, i dont know maybe from a stop he could do it, but he completely screwed 3rd gear up so theres another kill..........

raced a semi hopped up WRX, but not the sti, we where neck and neck from a 10mph roll, from a stop though i didnt get 1st, the tires spun all the way through the gear, and he had all wheel drive....... we hit 120-125 and i got infront of him, my mirror was at his bumper, then we hit a corner at about 110, and i tell you, my dad has a porsche 911, and i almost thaught i was driving that, the car handles very well at both low and high speeds, GM did a good job, i traded my 97 cavalier z24 in for this car, and i must say i couldnt be happier

played with an srt-4 also, still waiting to actually race one, he had some stupid ass blow off valve as he was revving his ****, so i dropped the clutch needless to say he stopped revving..... it is way to easy to get these pirellis to turn over.............

I have also raced a couple older eclipses with turbos, the 89 model i think it was..... he thaught he was hot ****, comming up behind me and blowing by me, needless to say i showed him a little bit of supercharger........

When i was home one weekend i had a guy come up on me in a dodge viper as well, and he was up my ass, i was kinda pissed off about it, so i went, i knew there was no chance of winning, not with 500 hp under the hood, but i played with him, it was fun, stopped and talked to the guy after, he wanted to know what kind of car i had, he wanted to get his son one i guess, nice guy................


More to come im sure............ cant wait to get the magnaflow, and either the PSI-FI kit, or the stage1 and 2 from GM

My dads is a 96, N/A model, I think at high speeds my car did handle better, however the tires where nearly shot on his, that might have been why it just felt more stable, I know in the over all scheme of things the porsche is obviously going to handle better, I just felt safer in my car i guess...... i have hit 140 in the porsche on a long straight road..... not racing anyone, just seeing what she had to offer, the 6th gear is nice though, Im a little dissapointed to see these new g6's with a 6 speed...... and even the new civic SI for 06, however the tranny in the cobalt is a great tranny, such an upgrade from the cavalier, god, i drove my old car a week ago, to move it so i can sell it, and i tell you, it feels like a mile between gears........... SAAB did a great job with that tranny though, Im interested to hear about, or even drive one of the 2.0 turbo SAABs just to see how it feels, I wouldnt trade the blower for anything

Ya probably just the tires... Also ive always thought Porsches took a little getting used to...
I drove an 02 911TT and had it up to about 165mph on the freeway and it felt absolutely GLUED... I wanted to max it out but im too big a puss... @165 everything is FLYING by

Nice kills, and its hard to control a porshe at top speed with rear wheel, and mid engine block, but still 5x a better car then ours.
