    Talking 02 spec-V vs Red old ass BMW with autofab sticker

    b4 i begin with what happen let me state that this old 1980s RED BMW with Autofab sticker and with what i believe he had a CAI and i know he had a Exhaust. we were riding in a 02 spec-v with 4 people in it all we have is CAI. ok the start. We were coming home from Atlanta and near the gwinnett place exit this old RED BMW with a Autofab sticker comes from no where doing a fly by. so we took it that he wanted to race so the driver in the sentra drops the gear and we wait for him. The BMW guns it and then so does the driver in the sentra do and he killed the BMW with about 5 car lengths and still pulling. this was repeated 3 more times with the same results. He got beat by basicly a STOCK Sentra Spec V. I mean his car wasn't quick at all. But, I still think that he thought that he was gonna win. One would think that it should of been closer than what it was though.

    The owner of that car is from what I know the owner of Autofab...and if I am correct that E30 is not 1 to shangle with :-) Im sure he didn't want to get pulled over, since he is in a racing team...SCCA=nono

    HOLD ON THERE! I used to have alot of fun racing my dads '94 accord before I got my S2k. In a way it was "safer" because it basically quits accelerating at 90 mph whereas I've hit 100 in my car without trying to do so. It was also alot of fun showing camry owners a thing or two. Ohh, and I raced a guy in a celica gts once and HELD ON! He couldnt believe he couldnt pass me. I know it sounds lame but personally I have fun racing other slow cars and seeing who's the better driver. Just my

    i didnt beat him its not my sentra i own something far better than it. I also told the story in 3rd person narrative so dont say i won the race thank you. Why argue over something simple as a CAI, not if i was going around saying i think he had a bottle/supercharger/swap then i could understand getting on my case about that.

    Nothing wrong with a Sentra.... Shit, I rather drive that then a 13 year old unreliable boosted yota.

    BTW if it was the AUTOFAB bmw is not set up for Drag or hwy games.. Is more of SCCA type of stuff..

    True... I ran a 14.89 and repeated the 1st time I took my Spec to the track. And every1 has to start somewhere... so who cares if he has a 15 second car. A kill is a kill.

    ya, Thomas's is black and it isn't street legal, but its setup for road racing, as much of the cars they've worked on our. I want to race the White Dinan M3 they got.

    I would say that bmw would probably kill the nissan in the mountains. but a kill is a kill, i beat a Geo Metro with my golf

    Ennnnnk!!! Wrong answer. Spec V is MADE for the twisties... I'd bet my next paycheck on the Spec V in the mountains. Spec will out-torque the BMW, and also more options to "dig-in" w/ the 6spd tranny vs 5.

    umm sorry but if its was a "BUILT AUTOFAB" car, Thomas could take his slow BMW and staight hand you your ass in the twisties... he does Touring Racing and runs at ROAD ATLANTA. And what mountains are you going to be using a 6 speed anyway?

    I thought we already estalished that it was NOT that car. And as far as my Spec V goes, I do not win 'em all, but it's not your grandma's Spec V. Check the sig and then check the link... www.seriouscustoms.com/sunbeltprogress

    When you say Mountain Run I assume you are running both down AND uphill (at least that's how we played in Colorado) and then average the times... there are many ways to do a mountain run though I guess. I DO know that the Spec V in stock form is one of the fastest autox cars available (in it's class), it loves to turn... which doesn't make sense if you take note that it's a SEDAN w/ only a 99in wheelbase --> what's even MORE daunting is the solid rear axle.

    I thought we already estalished that it was NOT that car. And as far as my Spec V goes, I do not win 'em all, but it's not your grandma's Spec V. Check the sig and then check the link... www.seriouscustoms.com/sunbeltprogress

    When you say Mountain Run I assume you are running both down AND uphill (at least that's how we played in Colorado) and then average the times... there are many ways to do a mountain run though I guess. I DO know that the Spec V in stock form is one of the fastest autox cars available (in it's class), it loves to turn... which doesn't make sense if you take note that it's a SEDAN w/ only a 99in wheelbase --> what's even MORE daunting is the solid rear axle.
    well i never said it was your spec V... were discussing the stock spec V vs. the Red BMW, but since you have a built one... i'm sure i could get Thomas to bring out his black touring car to take that challenge in the mountains. I know he is making less power than what is in your sig, but it still won't be a problem.

    i don't know any nissans that are winning touring races, nor is nissan even in the top makes for touring racing. nice motor

    RTR won 3 seasons straight w/ this car (world challenge). LOL. My engine builder built the engines for Cunningham for the debut season of this car, but lost the bid only after 1 season. I forget the team that build the engines for Cunningham now though. As far as the challenge, I know what my cars can do... but I ALSO know my limitations. LOL. I am no-where near the level of guys who do this for a living. I am sure my Spec can make up for my lack of finesse in the twisties... but lb. for lb. I am severely outclassed by this guys driving ability (as far as mountain runs go). I have the skill I think, but lack the balls that these guys have on the downhill (spent the las 2 years in CO, trust me... these guys have balls bigger than mine). But in drag, he wouldn't scare me at all. LOL
