Guys,

 

A lad at work with a standard MR2 Turbo reckons that he can beat not onyl my car, 300zx tuned to high 300bhp's, but alos kick the arse of any s14 on a 1/4 mile strip.

 

He also reckons that a standard MR2 does the 1/4 mile in 13.5s......

 

How can this be, my 300zx standard has a quicker 0-60 and 0-100, and yet he claims his 1/4 mile time is better than most 300zx standard 1.4 times of about 14 seconds......

 

What do u guys think?

 

I am def goign to race him just to keep him quiet I think!!

Why did the MR2 win? Only cus it got a better start, the zed has more grunt and had it had an equal start, would have kicked its arse, no questions asked.

 

Alex, what was your 60' time?

Oh FFS this is priceless :xxx: :xxx: :xxx:

Go on my son - you start reading through your boys own big book of excuses!!!!!

 

LMFAO :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

 

Seriously though, from what alex has said - if they'd had an equal start it would've been a dead heat

 

"his 60ft time was 0.3 secs better than me looking at the slip & I never got it back, 13.8 v 14.1 "

 

But the point is - its never gonna be an equal start - the 300's got an extra half a ton to get moving, AND the mr2's lump is over its rear wheels, which WILL give it improved launch grip :bow:

 

Now go stand in the corner and have a stern word with yourself!!!!!!!!! :slap: :slap:

Hows about we meet at the strip within the next few months and we'll see whos standing in the corner? :xxx: :xxx: :xxx:

 

And yes it can be an equal start, Why isnt it possible for an MR2 turbo and a 300zx to get an equal start??? Hellooooo??? Of course it is, the 300 just needs it tryes warming up first and perhaps for the MR2 to spin for a second, maybe it doesnt even need it, down to the driver/perticular car/tyres etc.... Both cars then cover the first 60' within the same time and the 300 will win!

 

Sorry adam, your WRONG! :tongue:

 

Like I said, give it a couple of months and I'll happy to put my money where my mouth is and finally put the MR-POO back where it belongs, back behind the comb and scissors...:rofl:

 

Looks like the rets of the guys were right about you adam.... :x: and I used to stick up for you having met....

LMFAO, Mark you obviously have a fettish for corners :rofl:

Mark you obviously have a fettish for corners

 

and young girls from the Philippines :rofl:

 

Shall we all save this one for the Pod as Im quite happy to meet you all up there - all bull*hit aside 300s are very nie very fast cars - and to a ton for the money not a lot gets past a MR2 T.

 

Both nice cars - im sure I know which one you guys prefer ;) so each to their own and cheers for all the hairdresser jokes - the hair products one was new to even me :rofl:

 

Cheers guys & gals,

Gareth

MR2 May be quicker from the line, but i'll look good from the line and sound far more meaty.

Here Here Gareth, pod it is....

 

And I told u to keep it quiet about the Philippine girls!! LMAO:rofl:

Hellooooo??? Of course it is, the 300 just needs it tryes warming up first .

 

 

PMSL This just keeps getting better - Your gonna warm up street tyres??? - and thats gonna make a difference?? :rofl: :rofl:

 

Or maybe you feel you need to run slicks to keep up with us hairdressers?? :tongue: :xxx: :tongue:

  • Author

Can u hear that? Listen..........

 

Can u? No, listen..........ssshhhhhhh.........listen........

 

"street tyres''........oh.....I see.....someone did mention street tyres then did they......

 

PMSL:rofl::rofl:........:xxx: Look and thou shalt not find! Want a shovel?

 

Slicks = Extra grip = Closing advantage MRPOO has over 300 being made of Tonkas finest and removing all practicality by putting engine over rear wheels.....:xxx:

so you mean you DO need to run slicks to keep up?

I cant tell with all your hilarious sarcasm :tongue: :slap: :xxx: :tongue:

  • Author

Your still not listening are you? PMSL.......:rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:

 

Oh dear, oh dear.....:xxx:

maybe you need to speak up a bit then?

will you or wont you NEED to use slicks to keep up with a hairdressermobile at the pod?

 

simple question.......

can you manage a simple answer?

Hows about we meet at the strip within the next few months and we'll see whos standing in the corner? :xxx: :xxx: :xxx:

Got to agree with Mark, the MR poo don't stand a chance against the zed if the 60 are the same on both cars. Having seen the post and vid from zhound i'm totally convinced of the zed's 1/4 mile potential.

will you or wont you NEED to use slicks to keep up with a hairdressermobile at the pod?

 

Wrong question Adam, I dont need to keep up, I will never need to try and keep up, I meant to get as good as a start.

 

Slicks, probably, I am no tyre expert so maybe someone on here who has experience of dragging a zed can help......

 

I am guessing slicks would be a benefit, somehow the balanced has to be equalled from the start as the MRPOO already has an advantage.....if slicks is the answer then so be it.....Or maybe a full tank of fuel to help sit the back end down......or maybe you in the boot.....shall we give it a go? PMSL! :rofl:

 

Another question, has anyone ever tried to lighten their zed?:confused:

maybe if you cut that giany knob off your forehead the power to weight of your car would improve?

  • Author

I cant, your stuck firmly on!!! :xxx:

 

And it itches like hell!!! :rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:
