Lets hear you car stats,
rather hear about hotrod n muscle cars coz i rekon all this technology is spoiling the essence of what cars are there for.

Fastest ive driven was 138mph in my
2001, 4cyl 2000cc
Bhp 130
ford focus.

Fastest 0-60 is about 6.4
2003 Civic type R
4cyl 2000cc
200bhp
that was the fastest car ive driven but it was a demo car not mine so i got no times

Notice ive mentioned new cars there thing is the old cars in the UK were wank and you would be lucky to get a big block to break 120mph.

had a old ford capri, 2000cc with twin 45s
that was fast but did about 12miles to the gallon.

Any tales or pics of cars that you have owned that are affordable and ass kickingly powerfull in the USA??

I've got a C3 Corvette with a big-block 483 stroker. Not the most high-tech car on the road, but sure will pin you back in the seat

[Odpierdol_sie!]

Cool, what year is that?

Cool i think that is the nicer shape of corvettes. proper retro looking
in the uk if u wanted retro from the late 70 that is comparable to teh shape of the corvette i think would be left with either a vauxhall cavalier or a vauxhall chevette

Dont even go on about engines, there is nothing made in the UK to compare

What combo did you use to get a 483?

I bought the engine already assembled from a guy who upgraded to a 572. The bore and stroke calculated out to 483.4 cu.in. but I don't know how he arived at that. Mine is only 505h.p. so is not as radical as yours, but still makes for a fun ride.

[sphincter]

this car took me to a little over 186mph indicated (my highest top speed to date)

I've been 160+ indicated on my bikes

run consistent low 11-high 10 1/4 miles in my 4-door sleeper street racer @30+psi and AWD

all my vehicles have had turbo(s), AWD, and 450+hp. (excluding the bikes, natrurally)

Man how heavy is that car to run that...*ahem* slow (no offense)? We got cars out here with 400ish to the wheels wei***ng in at a hefty 3100-3300 running mid tens all motor, and faster on the bottle. It's not that rare either, we got 01-02 stock internal f-bodies running bottom tens @ 2800-3000lbs. Just curious because you got the HP for a 9.50 car, in a chassis that could be down around 2500lbs.

As far as my rides:
96 Z- lots of mods...new combo 383 w/ sb 2.2heads 18*- no runs, but shooting for bottom tens

97 30th anniversary Z- Convertible, automatic, stock internal, 150shot...11.50's all day.

01-GSXR 600 for the street- yosh cams/exhaust, 1 tooth smaller counter shaft, hot computer...only been 130 on it recently.

No i think you have your times off just a little bit. That are also a lot of factories that go in to a good run. But i will tell you right now 400hp in a 3k car will not run in the 10's.

Go check out ls1tech.com. I used to be a mod over there...many cars (25+) stock internal camaros and z28's were running 10's (bottom and mid) at 3-3200k. These are N/A cars as well. Its not uncommon, just people forget how to hook all that power to the gound and that its more important where the power is being made versus how much (to a poiint of course).

I couldnt pull up ls1tech at the moment to post the database...but yeah 400rwhp/ 360 rwtq is more than enough for 10's.

The only way that is getting done is with the following.

2500-3000 stall converter.
with like 411 or better in there rear
full set of race slicks.
trans and or line locks.
msd or crane unit with delay box.

Now if that may hit the 10's but the car is not drivable on the street with that set up.

[Bigen12]

I've got a 71 Mustang with a 429 in it.

I need to rebuild the engine, and I'm thinking about going with a stroker kit. to take it to 532 or 557ci

[G-1000]

I dont see the point in a car that my bike has more Hp then.

[sphincter]

my honda is AWD auto and is great for utility.. I love our honda Element AWD... it only has ~160hp or so (I think) but it is a tool, just like any other.. I have toys for going fast, handling, track days, etc.. this is our grocery getter, snoboard tripper and things of that ilk.

[Big]

I've got a heavily modded R1 that makes my car seem slow, but the car is still so damn much fun to drive.

[G-1000]

And now that this turned into a pissing contest i will put up my stats.

01 gsxr 1000
weight dry 365
rwh 198
fount sprocket went up one tooth.
top speed over 200mph
1/4 9.80 can not go any faster with stock swing arm.
3th gear roll on wheelies.

Oh and the bike looks 100% stock other then exhaust.

[HardCharger]

This is my baby now. 4.0 litter stroked to 4.7 littlers. 4.56 gears in the front and rear, slipyoke drive shaft, 5.5 inches of lift, a few more mods also.

My old car was an 86' Z26 T-top. 350 stroked to 383, detroit lockers, roll cage for strength, and a few other things.

Yeah, I'm a gear head, born and raised to turn wrenches.

sorry, smallest pic i got of it

Nice Jeep bro.

[Kratos]

I've done 140 in my saab 9-5 with a 2.3 liter engine, but yeah man displacement does matter. Mom and dad own a car dealership so I have driven about everything. C-6 vette is fast as balls, had it to 160, but the thing that is impressive is the ease of tire spin and the ability of it to throw you in the back of your seat.

Motorcycles are cheap motorsports so everyone has something that will beat a car on a budget. My Aprilia does 0-60 way faster than a mclaren f-1, but who gives a flying f.

No it's called power to weight ratio. But them again with you get into real high dollar sport cars this does not all was hold true. Once again there are many factors that play a roll.

[HardCharger]

Thanks Gsxxr. It's looks a lot better now. Bigger tires, different bumpers, and a few other things.

i love getting rubber in my Jeep. People freak out when they see me spinning 37 inch tires.
