Default What would you hate to lose to on the street?

Just curious, posting this in a couple different places. I'm potentially looking for a new project idea in spring. I'm open to just about anything but I wanna know, what make/model or type of car would you hate to lose to on the street? Looking to have some fun and maybe **** a few people off. Drop some ideas.

Really though, the one loss that always stuck in my mind was this guy in a k5 blazer with a Cummins swap that was ridiculous. Cool dude talked to him later and he said it was making around 1,400 ftlb....

I hate to lose to anything, but a 4cyl import would be extra insulting.

I guy I know has a new ecoboost explorer with an intake and a tune. Its awd, and holy **** is it fast. It hurts alot of feelings. He took off from the light and i was standing back watching from the gas station, It was extremely impressive.

If V8EATR ever beat me with his JY LS turbo mustang, I’d be pretty sadness. Lol

Lol... I can't believe you mentioned it, that's what I was going to say. About 20 or so yrs ago that happened to me in my old '89 notchback. But the Caravan was modded and had a big turbo. I remember it was quite embarrassing, very surprising and hard to swallow.

Also, a Jeep.

Losing to a full weight N/A 5.0 would be pretty embarrassing I think.
