They take it to the twisties afterward? 100-0? Top speed? Comfort?

Good kill, always up for that.. But the vid say 20k VS 440k like it accomplished something by beating it in a straight line at a drag strip?

I asked the driver, he was to upset from getting his ass kicked after talking shit about how fast his car is.

In that case, well deserved! Nice ass kicking!

You don't take a stock car (regardless exotic or not) to a drag strip and talk shit to purpose built cars.

The goat accomplished the only thing that matters at a drag strip. Also, do you really believe the carrera gt offers more comfort than the gto?

Than a stock GTO? Yes.... That GTO, Probably not.

That GTO has been modded to make it faster and I'm sure some sacrifices in comfort were made. However, the Carrera GT comes with many of its own sacrifices from the factory in the name of performance (i.e. on/off switch clutch, stiff ride, low ride height, lack of cargo space, etc).

That GTO is as comfotable as a stock GTO. I should know, I drive it everyday.

Lets see a 70-150 highway style pull or a 1 mile pull... I bet the GT wins then.... but in a 1/4 mile that is still a hell of a kill......those porches arn't built for the 1/4...they are built for the twistys as somone above posted.

It's called drag racing and they were both at a drag racing track and yes the GTO handed the Carrera GT his ass. They were not in a Fast and Furious movie, unfortunately for you. For comfort you are not going to beat a GTO either. Now go back and watch you copy of Broke Back Mountain and sip on some tea.:D

I love the ricer comments, like yours. If they aren't built for the 1/4 mile what's it doing at a 1/4 mile track? Besides getting bitch slapped?:pimp:

Did you read past the first two posts or are you the typical butt hurt GTO owner, you sure do sound like it.

I hate racing from a roll and what not, my comment at he time was VERY valid for the reasoning behind it. In this situation the Porsche owner got exactly what he deserved.

But, with the obvious comprehension skills you have, you knew that and was joking with that post. :swing:

Nice run.

And maybe carrera GT owners should just stick to the twisties and stop races instead of getting embarrassed at the drags?

It seems it would make everyone happy. Since the people who have a poster of that car on their wall are getting so butt hurt about it.

It was the way I "thought" the OP was portraying it... Like the GT is a POS because he beat it with a purpose built car, doing its purpose!
After I found out the way the GT owner was acting.. Well deserved!

Exotics in my eyes aren't worth their money. All I care about is straight line, so no poster on my wall of anything except Fbodys! :)

Just to clarify. This GTO was purpose built to be my DD. A mild 427 and a TC, that's it.

Butt hurt GTO owner? Well at least I'm not some mullet wearing previous decade F-body owner who is missing half his teeth and has sex with his sister on weekends at the trailer park.:D BTW, I've owned 5 real F-bodies, you know the kind with V8's in 'em, but that was back in the 90's and early 2000's when they were still considered "cool". Now most 98-02 F-bodies are just considered humongous piles of crap.

O my bad.... I forgot I drive a V6...

:confused:
Its a good thing mine isn't "most".
I could go out tomorrow and get a GTO, but they are ugly and over weight with the same modability. No reason for all the baggage.
You talking about the vortech supercharged NBM formula that ran mid 11s?

I'm not sure if that was supposed to be a come back or not. I can tell the entry level mullet/trailer park comment was, but not sure about the other part.

Yeah, it was a M6 on a stock 10 bolt(3.42 gears) with Nitto road race tires. The car made 480 rwhp and it was my full weight daily driver.

According to this list a 2004 year model Carrera should run 11.1. So, when I saw this video I figure the driver should be able to rip at least a 12 flat. LOL @ the 12.76.

That GTO has a great launch.

Hmm Ricer comments? People take cars to the track all the time for benchmark acceleration tests and they are not necessarily racers or race cars. How many times do you see a car on here for sale and one of the first two things people want regardless of the car are "Dyno and track slips".

Nothing I said was a ricer comment. The Porches were never built for the 1/4 mile, they are built for top end, and twisty s and without a lot of serious work the would stomp a GTO or any F-Body.

So am I impressed that a GTO built for the strip beat a Porche GT... No, I'm not. Would I be more impressed if it beat the Porche GT at its own game...YES I would be flabbergasted.

The driver of the Gt though seemed ignorant to this though taking his Porche GT to the 1/4 mile drag strip to show off his performance. Stock for stock though lets see the GTO keep up with the GT even in the 1/4 mile....

Built car vs Stock car......no surprises and nothing I said had anything to do with being a "ricer". Just simple facts regarding the line up of these vehicles...

a 1 mile drag strip would better show off the Porche GT but its FAIL for the Gt owner for taking it to the 1/4 mile strip and Fail to you for calling my comments "ricer" comments...

I wish I had the additional $420,000 to put in my GTO to make it a fair race under any circumstance.

GT owner talked shit and got what he deserved.. You don't talk shit to cars built for the 1/4 mile at a 1/4 mile drag strip with your stock exotic.

Fact is, GTO was modded and GT wasn't, doesn't matter what would with either one of them having different mods.

I would agree with you 100% if the GT owners hadn't ran his mouth.

Well I agree the GT owner got what he deserved. Without a doubt. That part I wasn't really debating. the DRIVER got owned and that's just what should have happened in that instance.
