    ^ Nice one yo, what do you have on your TT?

    Awhile back I was going to get a Audi tt, S4, or an S60R, one of them but didn't really know alot about Euro cars.

    As far as I know There are only 3 or 4 modded S60R's in Atlanta. One of which is red but it is a wagon not a sedan. So it is a V70R not an S60R. In stock form the R makes 250ish to the wheels.

    he did not need mods to beat you. the TT is a very nice car but a drag car.... it is not. not that the S60R is either but as mentioned, out of the box they put 250ish to 4 wheels. 300hp and 300tq at the crank. (without a chip)

    Without a chip on a street race they will hang with an E46 M3 and chipped walk that same M3.

    (sandwich technique)
    again, not to take anything away from your car. It is def a hot ride but it is not as fast as an S60R...

    were they R's? there are not that many of them. Remember that the R has alot more tq than an M.... so for street racing it has the edge.

    What car do you drive?

    i have an STi as well. i absolutely walk the FUCK out of s60r's. and i beat e46's.. but i cant walk the hell out of them like i do the s60r's..

    in all honesty.. i dont even think an s60r can beat my Z either on a roll.. find me a stock one to race. that'll be cool

    Mikey, if I recall correctly, I raced your R in my STI, when I was bone stock, and you had mods, and I stll beat you very easily. The STI is no comparison to an R, as the STI is a much faster car. As far as the 350z is concerned, stock vs stock, I'd say is a much closer race than many people think when put up against an R.

    dammit.. well atleast you beleive me.


    well yes.. i have raced a few stock s60r's in the 350z.. and i pulled them a few cars between 90-140mph.. definately had to take it up there to do it.


    but still find me a s60R to run in the 350z thats not modded.

    s60r's are BOATS. stock form they are slow. Now modded, diffrent story..But, they need ALOT of power to push it around =]

    And yes, I will put money on Speed's 350z vs a stock s60r.

    First of all.... if you are putting over 300hp/tq to the wheels in an sti then of course you will beat a STOCK R. A STOCK R will still win at high speeds though. There is no way a stock Z beat an R (stock) at high speeds from 90-140mph. Volvos like most "luxury" euros do their best at high speeds and will destroy the mentioned cars at those speeds.

    The R and sti/evos are completely different. 0-50, the sti/evo will beat an R. to 60-65ish it will be even and 75+ the R will win. The Sti/evo are made to dart from one turn to the next and that is where they excel. On HPDE tracks and "autobaughn" driving the R will beat the STi/Evo pretty easily.

    lastly, it's not like there are a ton of R's out there to race so I am calling BS on 80% of the claimed kills even being attempted. Most people don't even know how to tell the difference between an R and a regular S60...

    man.. you are fucking stupid..


    hey why dont we do this.. another Monkey has an STi with a little less than your claimed wheelhorsepower.. lets put this TOP END theory of yours to a test cause its bullshit. a STOCK sti has pathetic top end. my 350z is all top end.. in fact.. i cant pull the s60r till after 110 where i walk away. thanks mikey..


    PM me if you want to run the STi thanks.

    Actually you're wrong, I've proved this theory before. I like the R, it's a cool car, but it's not as fast as an STI by any means, not outta the hole or up top. I'm good friends with Mikey, infact, I've helped him with his car many times, but even he'll tell you that my STI, BONE STOCK, beat him on the HWY, when he had mods. Infact, I even had a passenger while he was solo. It wasn't even difficult to pull away. The STI is lighter car, that makes just as much power/tq. That doesn't make the R a worse car, it's just different. It's not meant to compete with Evo's and STI's, it's got other competitors that better suit it.
    **EDIT**
    And to add one thing, racing an Evo at 75+ will be even worse of an ass kicking than racing an STI. People have run 10's on the stock turbo, and have made 450awhp. In addition to all of that, the gearing is MUCH better on the Evo, as my STI was a VERY busy car.

    hmm.. with comparable power the STi has proved to me to be the faster car @ 75+ against evos.

    i have plenty of friends to test my own theory though lol. should make a cool video.. i guess that's what ill do since the kills forum is pretty dead right about now. lol

    btw. you're cool +1

    i AM an expert.. i know enough about the s60R to leave it in the dealer parking lot where it belongs.

    i love the "checkbook" comment.. i wanted a nice free Clear things up run.. but if you wanna play the money game we can do that too.

    its a good friend of mine who makes less whp than you.. lets test your "top end theory" 60-150 for 100 bucks.. or i can race you in mine if you'd like.. 400 bucks DIG 1/4. i've seen your driving, im no where near scared.

    your call. and please.. keep it to PMs.. i dont need your bitching taking up any more space. thanks babe

    have a great day
    XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOX

    ^ Oh my cat here we go again. I personally like R's they do look bad ass. Since I am also into Euro cars I can tell the diffrence between an R and a normal S60.
    -brakes
    -rims
    -body
    -Tires
    -blah blah blah blah

    But dude come on they are not invincable(???), I know the guy Speedmonkey is talking about and it should be a close race, make sure to bring YOUR check book. *EviL Grin*
