Default 5th gen vs Mach1!

Bolt on mach 1 pulls up next to me revs it. I'm like Oh ****. Obviously I was super scared. ******* things are fast from what I read on here. So I approach him slowly and glance over and he's all like .

He says lets do this all dominic torreto style. I'm like alright man but this car only has 630rwhp, and 810rwhp my 150 shot... not sure if I can keep up. He says it'll be a good race then starts talking to his boyfriend next to him (assumed it was his bf b/c he has a mach1...valid assumptions are valid).

Anyway he beeps off. ******* thing rockets forward i'm spinning and he's starting to put cars on me. I'm like nooo. In 3rd he has me by like 4 cars but I'm reeling in slowly and slowly. I then decide to spray and rocket foward but only so slightly could I reel him. In 5th I finally catch up but ever so slowly and put a fender on him.

Stopped to talk after. Guy was impressed I could catch him. Says he never loses. He had just came from killing a vortech srt8 jeep in a 1/4 mile race.

Impressive cars.

Jesus dude. Good kill. You're lucky to have survived that in one piece.
Was it this dude?

You can see his boyfriend clearly in the passenger seat.

If he would have thrown all that KY out from the back seat it might have been a different story. Every 100 lb counts.

He clearly needs the driver mod. If the Mach would have been driven to it's full potential, then there is no way you would have caught him. ROFL

He must have missed 5th or he ran out of gear. He had to be packing at least 4.56's. The top end on that car should have been at least 180 or 185 right in the power band if he was still running the stock gears. LOL

The intent of this post isn't that I won.

It's just showing the true potential of a mach1. I mean holy ****. I am so impressed. He has like a Chinese made CAI and some metal welded in Bulgaria as headers and I think his tune is off a gameboy.... and he runs that fast!!!! 800rwhp really can't compete.

havent you heard? gears wake up a 4v HUGE. swapping to 4:56's takes them from a mid 13 sec 1\4 mile car to a mid 13 sec 4 mile car. he obviously must not have been running 4:56's otherwise there is no way you would have caught him and his b\f with a meager 800 rwhp.
