Just some slow average houston street cars..."
Best thing to do is compare your car to all the cars out on the street at any given time where you live, not the other cars on this site and than you realize that you have a very fast car
But I still think talk like that is gay when people are serious. Last edited by KB99WS6; 10-31-2004 at 02:23 PM.

Yeah unit, you knew you were one of the guys I was talking about, lol. Anyhow, As I indicated, when I am driving my car around I can beat anyone around me 99% of the time, that's good enough for me
Granted, I am in the process of upping the ante to keep up with the Manufacturer HP wars going on...

Honestly, there are so many highly modded cars in my area you'd need around 600rwhp to gaurantee the victory.

Supposedly there are a lot of those cars here too (NY, Long island), but just to give you an example of what i run into on a day to day basis, my previous car was a 94 mustang GT with Full OR exhaust, gears, edelbrock heads, intake and a bunch of bolt on's and I never once lost a street race in a period of about 4 years, and i got into many as i drove much more aggressively back than. Now I LOVED this car but it was not that relatively fast. To give you an example i raced a bone stock 02 SS on the highway and i *Slightly* pulled on him, also slightly pulled on bone stock Supra TT on highway.
Things are changing though these days, as I have already lost 2 street races with my currently 315rwhp WS6 (will be about 350rwhp by monday ) One was to a 450rwhp Cobra and another to a modded Sti. Thats why I am going back to the mod drawing board...next up is a cam.
I just think MOST people with these real high HP car's either leave them in the garage or don't even ever race them on the street

yeah, just have to look out if you are in houston... even Dan millen knows this. texas guys dont really play around. if you are on the streets and your car is not going 10.5's or better, then you are just **** out of luck
