Sick and tired of this crap

I am geting really sick of hearing about all these people who say they kicked the crap out of all these faster cars. One person said they beat a 99 V6 stang, another said they beat a GSR, the list goes on and on. Our cars arent fast and most (98%) do not have N2O. If you want to make up lies, go to another site and tell your bull crap stories there. Thanks for listening.[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]

99 V6 Mustang? Fast car? I don't think so...V6 mustangs are not fast cars...the right driver in a 5sp Ex can beat it easily

just because its a faster car doesnt mean a civic cant beat it.....it depends on who is driving, the driving conditions, and other things.

Ive never beat a V6 mustang, or anything that would absloultely decimate our car....but i have beaten a 2 celicas, an integra, 3 neons, and a couple others...nothing to really be shocked about. although i did run with a firebird, and even beat it off the line....for about 3 seconds....then i was toast.

i have no reason to lie....i know this thread isnt directed towards me but i just thought id defend myself....because someone told me there is no way i beat a Celica GT-S, well i did and you can talkt to the guy....we're pretty good friends now

as far as people saying they beat the stangs or gsr or whatever...i agree with you.

All I gotta say is telling a story where a crap driver was involved shows how much of a PU$$Y you really are.

Race the damn car with a half decent driver and take a loss in your rice-box of a car. End of story.

I'd have to agree with lowboy and Neo in general. BS kill stories are just plain stupid and lying on the internet just seems like a waste of time. But if anyone wants to bring their BS
here I could really use the flame practice. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/IMG]

Dude, I dont mean to be a punk about this, so dont get mad, but your full of it. Im sorry, there is no way a 127 horse 5 spd civic could keep up w/ a 99 or above V6 AUTO mustang.
Im going to go rent a V6 steed tomorow and my dad and I will race it with my 5spd EX. Remember, the mustang wil be an AUTO. I will bring my digital camera with me and take some pic's. I look forward to posting my civic got its @$$ handed to it by a Ford Crustang. Dont get me wrong, but Ive realized, our cars might look really good, but they cant compete w/ alot of other cars, thats probably why they are called economy cars.

The firebird is the 200 horse power version. The trans am, firehark, and formula are the LS1 versions. I could see beating it off the line if it was an auto, but like pounds said, he got smoked after that. Trust me, dont try to race one unless you want to go home with your tail between your legs.

lol.ok dude..just telling ya..my sis has a 00 V6 Stang..5spd..I've borrowed it alot and that thing isn't that fast. I raced an Integra and got my *** kicked...and I am not sh1tty driver w/ a 5spd mind you. And we all know hp numbers don't decide a race. You haven't had any experiance with this most likely (hell if i know..can't read ur mind), and I have. Best to keep your mouth shut when you don't know what your talking about. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG] (yeah I know, my civic isn't fast either)

no i dont think the firebird was 300hp.....but waaay faster than my civic.....

im sure it would of beat me off the line but it sat and melted his tires for about a second....then blew my @ss away.

but he wanted to race....and i wont back down....id rather try and take a loss than chicken out and do nothing at all....

that was me who posted the 99 stang auto that I beat. Belive it man, that car is a turd. The only thing fast about that car was its altezza's and graphics. The 18" KMC's might have slowed him down, But no BS I beat him!!!

you guys say hp dosnt matter yea it might not matter between a 2000 and 2001 Civic, but a Mustang come the fuuck on!!

Over a 60 hp gap, more torque and 2 extra cylinders give me a break! The people who you beat obviously WERENT racing!

Let People post whatever they want. Choose what you want to believe,
and if you don't want to read it then don't read it.

chew on this
weight/power ratio
Mustang 19
Civic 16
Obviously you want to have a low weight to power ratio, as less lbs per hp means its easier for the engine to do its thing (meaning get ur *** moving)..yeah thats a stupid definiton but its the best thing i could think of at 3 AM (CAN'T SLEEP!!! AHHH)
sorry buddy but you guys are wrong about this..give it up

alright everyone. i looked it up. and guess what. we can kick the crap out of auto V6 stangs! so there. haha hahahahaha

0-60: 8.7 seconds
1/4mile: 17.1 seconds
top speed: 109 MPH

so there, they are slow as hell! for 190hp and 220lb-ft. lol what junk cars.

even the 5spd's aren't fast. but they probably are a tad quicker than our cars. at least for 0-60. but maybe not the quarter.

0-60: 7.7 seconds
1/4mile: 16.3 seconds
top speed: 112 MPH

And for all of you that don't believe me, here's the link.

Just because they have more power than us doesn't mean they are god. it's ford power remember.

hope this helps all you that don't believe that we could take an auto V6 stang. and maybe even a 5spd in some cases.

::5 in the morning:: ... can we talk about girls or something? All this arguing's keeping me up. ::yawns::

Mustang's suck... HP/Torque #s aren't enough... now we have power ratio, too... okay... I've raced a Mustang... whoever says they're slow... are right... ::yawns again:: Everyone should know that they don't make Mustangs like they used to and since some people like to look at the #s... bam... power ratio. ::yawns:: Now all of you shut up... please... ::rubs eyes:: it's just a Mustang... and our cars are just Civics...pkpodr;knrgnkrn :: falls on keyboard ::

(So many goddamn arguments... people with experience, #s and false stories...)

OK obviously youre not factoring in the 600-800lb weight difference plus the fact that FORD f*cks up the transmissions on the V6 'stang. Trust me they are slow. I beat one of my friends who has one in a race, and i have an LX 5sp(only mod is CAI). I don't know about the stories with cleica GTS's and GSR's(another one of my friends kicked the sh*t out of my car with his GSR), but the mustang story has to be true.
