07' CTS V vs 09' EVO X and cummins 2500, and others!!
Bought my car Wednesday and Thursday after work a buddy from work wanted to race cuz we r both stock. He said I was gonna get him by maybe a car.... sooo we line em up on an open road with no cars on the road and do a roll from 40-100 we both jumped same time with him getting the initial jump(brake boosting) I immeadiately stopped the pull and at 100 I had him by 5 cars! I was impressed cuz I thought it was supposed to be closer than that stock 4 stock.
Sunday I was leavin cruisin the coast in Biloxi, MS and on my way out of town an 08' 2500 dodge with a cummins, exhuast, intake, boost, hypertech chip, and some other stuff was tryin to run me.... so I did, we went from about 35- 80 or so and i had him by about 2-3 cars. He rolled up with his girl in the truck with him and had the funniest look on his face! I turned the music down cuz he wanted to talk to me, He said "WTF is that thing?!?" haha guess he didnt know what the V meant. I enlightened him. He told me he went 13.6 at 104 in the quarter and said he usually waxes just about every car he runs... Guy was pretty cool and told me nice car. There were more races but just little red light runs or short interstate rolls, beat a newer GT, Turbo cobalt, and an 03-04 GT.... I love this freakin car! No I dont plan on racing everybody but that car show dished out way too many opprotunities!!

Nice Kills bro! The Cobra may have been a late 90's if you pulled him because the 03-04 Cobras would put a smackin on us for sure... Have lotz of fun and hurry with the vids 2... I should have a massive vid coming soon with some pretty fun cars including Vettes, Supras, Evo's, MS3's, GTI's, Turbo Civics and a few others I cant think of...

Ok I dont wanna fight... My hands are lethal... I just wanted to share my experience... that is all. All of these races were from a roll and I personally am not trying to build a "race" car, I simply want a nice car with a good ride that when you just so happen to press the pedal it will outrun plenty of cars on the street.... all while enjoying A/C, comfort, style, and out of every 100 cars you see on the road you might see 1 V... Thats why I bought it, I freakin love it, so dont rain on my parade, Thanks... Go Cowboys!

i wasnt stating that 108-110 is fast but when people say 13.6 you think of 102-104. if not slower. meaning that the V is top end and i feel the 108-110 isnt very accurate because i have hung with cars trapping a lot higher then that at high rolls. but i could give two ***** what you say your **** aint impressive either, 11s arent the **** either, i know.

There are some pretty fast cars down here in MS, the problem is a lot of us are broke as dirt so most of our builds are low budget jobs. 12's and 11's are common numbers. Main thing is that there are also a lot of folks that don't know what fast is and think that their 13 second ride is fast just because they've beat a bunch of cars on the street. What they fail to realize is that they're beatin stock cars or almost stock cars. Most folks don't know what a real street car is. And the Dodge owners around here think their rides are invincible anyway lol.

Everyone has thier own idea of what fast is.
Theres 500hp and 300 hp cars everywere, you just chose what you race.
I look for cars that are in the same class , or sometimes I admit I do pick on some cars.
Thats the fun of it, you dont need a 9sec car to beat ppl and race...
Id love it if my V ran 9s, but realisticly dont have the money for it ...
Ricediposal you gotta get a camera next time, good kills..
