White 1G Talon AWD VS. Spoolude

[94NDTA]

I'll contact Jared to see what he has to say. It should be a best 2 out of 3 race as well, to account for driver error.

1st. i have beat a first gen eclipse/talon gsx/tsi there not fast stock so quit thinking they are.

2nd. i have non not a spot.

3rd. if ur cars are god gift to this world why are they ALWAYS broken. :rolleyes:

1. Stop thinking your prelude's fast. It's not. It's got a 2000+ dollar engine swap and it runs 15's.

2. Sorry but I'm sure you just need to look harder.

3. Haha, my Geo Prizm never breaks either, oh wait It only makes 75 hp. Our cars actually make power, and run faster then 15's, let alone DSM's with thousands of dollars in to them.

Look, this happens once ever couple months, you run your mouth, and you get caught in a spot where everybody knows you cant back it up.

You challanged me to a race this spring. Put your money where your mouth is, becuase springs coming....

All I got to say is AWD owns. Stock for stock a 1g talon would walk all over a prelude. Since you do have a swap, race him on the highway...it should be closer. If the driver behind the wheel knows how to drive, from a stop, I don't think it'd be close on the street. Make sure to video tape the races

I will bet that Chris (bad93ex) would race his stock talon against the spoolude. If the talon I voted on is going to race the lude, than I'd be willing to bet my jellybean that the Talon would win. Sorry spoolude.

That poor Trans Am.

I honestly think his stock lude would take a stock 1G eclipse.

We should set up a race. Jared would be up for it I bet.

His lude isn't stock.

this thread is why i come to fargostreet, god the world would be boring if there wasnt dumb people.

Jeremy already raced spoolude last Friday. Whats the need for the poll, spooludes been spanked.

[amicheze]

yeah id be down for it. second gear has been kinda iffy lately though. lemme know.

edit: i only wanna do it if spoolude honestly thinks he can beat a stock tsi. otherwise its not worth the gas and/or the wear on my car.

spoolude said that he's "thinking" about getting a dsm...said that after riding in mine (which doesnt even run 100%...especially when its cold)...what bout that spoolude?

[Tad218]

somebody here musta ran the 1/4 in a stock tsi/gs-t. just compare it to spooludes 15.3...i'm sure its in that area somewhere

[91psiTSI]

spoolude how about we race again on the highway..... that should make it more of an even race......o by the way i have a 14b

i ran 14.2 last summer with not very many mods

fuel pump
14b (stock 1g turbo)

[weshole]

I ran 14.5 with little mods. And that was spinning completely through 1st and 2nd gears.

[Jim]

Traction? what?

[Tad218]

damn 14.2 pretty much stock! not as close as i thought

In a FWD turbo, EXACTLY! Consider it nonexistent.
