Z-28 For You 03-13-2002, 01:25 PM I was just wondering who thought they had the faster car on here.....I for sure have a pretty quick one, but im not going to say its the fastest.. BlueCalx 03-13-2002, 01:43 PM fastest top speed? acceleration? or 1/4 mile or what? what you got? <img src="http://www.spartanburgracing.com/cgi-bin/ikonboard/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'> Z-28 For You 03-13-2002, 01:48 PM Just what comes to mind when you think of fastest... I own that black camaro. All its good for is straight line acceleration. I bet it will do 140 in the top end though..Which would be awefully scary in an old car like that. 03-13-2002, 02:20 PM Id say robert or cody Ben Howard 03-13-2002, 02:49 PM Ive took the hatch past 155 B4. I had Clint Davis is the car one night and had it at 130 in 4th. Its not the fastest by far. I am willing to bet at a Street Race Will would be one of the top 3. <img src="http://www.spartanburgracing.com/cgi-bin/ikonboard/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':p'> 03-13-2002, 03:50 PM oh yeah, add ben to the list <img src="http://www.spartanburgracing.com/cgi-bin/ikonboard/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'> Punter 03-13-2002, 04:09 PM I really don't know how fast the other cars on this board are so I can't make any comparisons but my car does 60 in about 5.4, and the top speed is right at 160, maybe a hair over, with the speed limiter removed Z-28 For You 03-13-2002, 04:18 PM okay well first off, i dont now of anywhere you can do 155 at, 130 sounds right and for the M3, my dad has one and i have personally driven it to 130 but that was that flat stretch of highway on 85.. Heres what I propose to do. Lets all set up to go to greer one night, in about a month and see whose cars are the fastest. If yall think this is a good idea then write back on this board and let everybody else now something..... Punter 03-13-2002, 04:26 PM Stock M3s are electronically limited to 135 in the US but if you have the limiter removed they will do around 159-160 before the rev limiter in 5th spoils the party. I never plan on personally verifying this, I've never taken it above 110, but I've seen it done in other E36 M3s. Z-28 For You 03-13-2002, 04:38 PM Like I said though, I have only done 130 in his, but it was on that real flat stretch of 85 where if you ran off the road and didnt flip you might be alright. Its right past the 26 exits on the bypass. There are hardly any cops out that way, because they all sit there anyways. Punter 03-13-2002, 04:48 PM I do over 100 on 85 all the time but the way my luck goes the first time I ever hit 130 I would see the blue lights and probably get my license revoked until I was a senior citizen StockForNow 03-13-2002, 04:58 PM I'd say robert is the fastest. I thought cody only ran 9.6 8th mile?

It hits the redline in 5th at 160 and has no where else to go, I don't know of anyone who's ever changed the ratio to get a higher top speed though because most people go for acceleration when changing it. So I really don't know how fast it would be capable of going if gearing weren't an issue. 91lx 03-14-2002, 12:57 AM Can i quote you on that 160mph??? How long does it take to get there??? Ben Howard 03-14-2002, 01:02 AM The hatchcrap will get 155+ any day of the week. Why dont ya ask Davis how fast we got to 130. Beside BMW plant on 85 south is a prime spot if you start b4 the turn and are at 100 or more going round the turn Z28. Its a garuntee that hatchcrap can do it. The M3 will see 160+! Those cars are sooo bad ass. As Will says...drive it like you stole it! Yo Ozzy...i cant say im one of the fastest or anything....but from a roll...im nice! ROLLAHATCHCRAP! 8th mile is ok. But 1/4 is much better and the street shows whats really going on! <img src="http://www.spartanburgracing.com/cgi-bin/ikonboard/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'> Punter 03-14-2002, 01:05 AM If you mean can you quote me as in have I personally verified that it tops out at 160, then no, but I've seen it done in several other E36 M3s. It will only do 160 with the electronic speed limiter removed, with the stock limiter it is limited to 135. As for how long it takes to get there, I don't know, I'll ask someone who's done it and let you know. Impreza75 03-14-2002, 01:33 AM Well I'd say my car would be good stop light to stop light. 1/4 mile too. I dunno bout highway racing. My car seems to hit an Aerodynamic wall at about 110. Just doesn't excelerate hard in 5th in the middle power range. Oh well, with more boost it should help.

I've got to see this to believe it. Anyways, Speed becomes relative at more than about 80 mph. Its just not as accurate. The gear in the tranny is telling the speedo that your doing 140 when in reality your really doing more like 125. Aerodynamics play a role in it anyways, just like he said earlier up. Its relative to how aerodynamic your car really is. Look at my 69 camaro. Aobut as aero as a brick wall past 120.. not to metion it probably would take off if it hit 155. its just not meant to do that. No cars are unless you have a ferrari or something. And if you dont believe me then go for a ride in my camaro and look at the speedo gear at 120. It wont feel like 120 I assure you that....but it is scary.... AXIStang 03-14-2002, 01:32 PM I was looking more at the theoretical top speed of the Integra transmissions. It will be around 168.5 so if she would pull to 8400rpm it should be around that ruling out aerodynamics. Should be around 135 or close at 4th redline. The theoretical top speed of my car is 224mph at 6K but aerodynamics hold me back (well actually lack of HP to overcome aerodynamics). StockForNow 03-14-2002, 03:31 PM I bet Bens car could do 150 ez. Its light and has a strong motor. And if clint has seen it do 130 in fourth then it should be able to do 155. I have rode in it and its got the power to do 150 at least. Z-28 For You 03-14-2002, 04:31 PM Like I said though, if you have the h.p. to over come aerodynamics, then you can go any speed imaginable, as long as you have the h.p. Now does his car go past 155 or is it stuck on 155. See my point. The speedo says 120 in my car and I know for a fact that it doesnt do 120 when it is on it because of the relative fact I stated earlier. To me I dont really care but honestly if i told you my car could 180+ would you believe me. It wieghts 3050 with me in it, and has about 430 h.p. I dont think so.... New camaro SS only do 164 in sixth gear at he redline.... ask that guy with the onyx black one. Tell him to take you down 85 and let the speedo hit 170, I garuntee it wont be.. StockForNow 03-14-2002, 08:17 PM Maybe his speedo is off? weight to hp ratio is good for his car. Might be higher than yours or close to it. Anyway this thread is lame. Go to the track, post slips, and see who has the fastest car. ghswheela 03-14-2002, 09:33 PM id hate to say it, but the fastest car on this board is mine, the bronco xlt, haha, you know it AXIStang 03-14-2002, 11:02 PM Chill Anthony if he says 155 then it will do 155. I dont really care anymore who does what. I was gonna run but I was disappoined noone was hooking so i said oh well and Allen had me blocked in. I know who allen ben natasha luis and chris are now cool. Im gonna give props to Rob for not hitting the rail. Ben Howard 03-14-2002, 11:03 PM Hey its cool Z28. Dont need to believe it. But see my speedo only goes to 120. And i almost had it back to 0 again. Both my car and Quicks Del Sol will do 155. But hey its cool. Maybe ill get some video of it. Have video of 140 if you wana see it. Alot of it. Some from Greenville on Verde and some in ATL. Sounds like your Camaro is a nice car. HighTachPrez 03-15-2002, 12:19 AM I can confirm Ben's 130+ mph run, it was quite intense especially with the VTEC at WOT. As for top speed, i can safely say that the 7 has been to 170 on the speedometer... the wheels are bigger than stock, so maybe it was faster, but i guarantee the needle was at 170. It's amazing what actions you take when u get dumped, and it's 2am in the morning on I-77. http://www.hightach.com/gallery/2001/020401_fairgrounds/images/P2040044.jpg AXIStang 03-15-2002, 12:52 AM LOL I drive slow when Im mad about something. I dont want to die pissed off. bimmergirl 03-15-2002, 12:54 AM Oh I sure dont...pissed/upset/angry/hurt = floor it Ben Howard 03-15-2002, 01:12 AM If i have alot on my mind i drive around and listen to phil collins or something jazzy with no words. If im pissed i can pump some rap or rock and fuckin lay the pedal! AXIStang 03-15-2002, 01:25 AM Pedal down is my usual driving so driving slow sorta relieves stress thinking about how boring it is to do the speed limit. Anyone else foot braking with us this weekend??? ghswheela 03-15-2002, 07:44 AM i want to, should i just ask bettis about it? 03-15-2002, 04:28 PM 165 Stegall 03-16-2002, 02:28 AM my car cuts off at 120 <img src="http://www.spartanburgracing.com/cgi-bin/ikonboard/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sad.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':('> However i have faith that it would pull to at least 140... is I could disable the fuel cut. Z-28 For You 03-18-2002, 12:23 PM Alright Alright, Im sorry to everyone in this thread for thinking I knew everything. I just had a lot on my mind with working on heavy maintinence with my truck, and i finally got it finished so if you want to see my car or trade rides or something. This page is awefully long so somebody start a new one. Ohh yeah, does this qualify for the longest thread in this board? Its the longest Ive seen so maybe there ought to be something about the longest threads in here or something. Once again just wanted to say sorry for the misunderstanding.... p.s. It takes a real person to admit defeat tony427 03-18-2002, 02:26 PM I am new to this forum and from Spartanburg I have a car that will top out about 121mph but it will do it in about 11 seconds is this fast? 03-18-2002, 04:46 PM hey tony...whats up?

My car is a lot slower. Get any power adder you want or more bolt ons and youre automatically in the 7's in your daily driver. I think the factory !nternals will hold up to 6's but til then we'll just have to wait... <img src="http://www.spartanburgracing.com/cgi-bin/ikonboard/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=';)'> Ben Howard 03-23-2002, 12:12 PM Yo Mexican thanx man! I appreciate it. It got a bit quicker at Greer this week. I have a few more mods planned very soon. It will be great. Looking foward to breaking into the 8.8 range when i can actually get these few mods. Still will be all motor. Im looking to do this on Street tires. <img src="http://www.spartanburgracing.com/cgi-bin/ikonboard/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':p'> Ben Howard 03-23-2002, 12:14 PM This girl i know named Stacey might have a fast car too if she ever sells her Civic.
