I was talking abou tthe cars curb weight. not my weight. Althought I probably out weight him by 100 lbs.

I lose every day. Contrary to popular opinion, Civics are economy cars, not racecars.

aye, I drive a Civic to and the only time I win is at the gas pump.


Good point. Every 2-3 weeks I fill up and smile to myself when I hear people complaining about paying $.10 less 3 days ago.

the old 740i is a slow, high 15 second car, i'm surprised he didn't pound your ass harder.

obv you are assuming his times are much lower than 15 which they are not.

WTH no0bert, 14 isn't just "a lot lower than" 15 ... it's so much lower that they called it "14".

Is it really that hard to believe? I know many people that have a small FWD GM car in the 13s and beyond.

I like how the OP thinks his slow grandpa-mobile is a race car.

never said it was. its a 4 door luxury sedan. if i wanted a racecar i would have purchased an m5 or something.

"many people" is not the same thing as him having the same.

so what after 60 your car has a rocket booser and magically becomes faster than his car? please show me a stock car that has a difference of more than 1 second to 60 and is faster than the other car in a 1/4 1/2 or any distance.

oh and notice the 1/4 times for your cars... about 15.5 secs for your car and 14 secs for his.
this race wasn't a 1/4 mile race tho 😕

are you an idiot??? i don't care it it was a 30 foot race, his car is FASTER than your car. it has a more powerful engine and it doesn't weigh as much. it does matter if you are going 3 miles or 435.54 yards. his car is faster than yours.

Wow... 14.7 is so fast 😀 If you want to talk about your car being faster than theirs... Mine is faster than yours... and DaTT's is faster than mine... and someone probably owns something that's faster than his...

Let's get into a HUGE e-pen1s war about who's car is faster on the INTERNET!!!

As for the OP - What kind of idiot are you street racing people in the rain?
 
Racing in the rain, with lanes merging, in public? And you got pwned by an old geezer?

What an idiot!

Why don't you ever say "BMW 740i" or "Mercedes CLK500" is that too un-cool for you?

Cool or un-cool doesn't even play into to this. Anybody who knows cars knows immediately what a 740i or a clk500 is without have to explain any further.

The fact that you haven't got a clue simply implies you're still playing with lincoln logs and couldn't even recognize a VW Beetle, unless of course it was one of your Matchbox cars.
