So tomorrow I'm racing a 65 mustang with the inline 6 motor, and exhaust in it, and mayb something I don't know about. Also will be racing a stock 05 v6(beat him before) and a V6 caddilac cts...how do you think I will do

65, could go either way....

stock 05 .... if you already beat it why are you asking

cts - I vote for the cts

ByPopularDemand · June 11th, 2007, 01:46 AM

How fast are those old i6 stangs...and yeah the cts might get me...I hope its really heavy

itschristorres8 · June 11th, 2007, 05:22 PM

actually those old mustangs are heavy
the 64 289v8 runs high-mid 15s

i give you the win on all of them except the cts
the cts will be close its a low/flat 15second car depending on the year

your tune would have to be good and your launch good as well

Ole Yeller · June 11th, 2007, 06:28 PM

yah i think the CTS will get you.. better motor and drive line

ByPopularDemand · June 11th, 2007, 07:16 PM

Yeah...launching isn't my friend

I hope I don't lose to the cts...I don't think I'd ever live down the shame of losing to a 4 door luxury sedan being driven by a girl I'm dating...

ive actually beat a newer cts, after the race we talked and the guy said omg i cant believe you were stock... it was from about a 40mph roll

ByPopularDemand · June 11th, 2007, 09:27 PM

Yay there is hope...but I got lucky, it rained today so I can't run

The reason is your lighter than him. Your going to have the advantage. It will take him more to get up to speed. The reason it would be very close from a dig is because you are both heavy and it takes a lot for your engines to get you moving. He is heavier than you and has a slightly more powerful engine, but it takes more to get it going but would still prolly get the launch and then take the advantage. The 3.8 stock is horrible in acceleration until you hit like 40-45 mph. SO, he will take the advantage. But, then again, it could be a drivers race depending on who gets the launch. So, from a 40 roll your lighter and it takes less to accelerate into faster speeds, and you will be already in your powerband when you floor it.

True, plus with my mods I go a lot better in the mid second gear plus area...but I thought a roll was better for heavy cars since they are already moving

that doesnt make any sense..

ByPopularDemand · June 12th, 2007, 02:03 AM

It does...if it takes more to get it in motion from a stop due to weight, that should mean it would need less to get it going once its already moving

no... lol just no

If you were to take another car that was lighter it would be quicker off the line, but it would also be equally quicker from a roll. what you're sayin doesnt follow the rules of basic physics. Newton would not be happy with your assumptions

ByPopularDemand · June 12th, 2007, 02:40 AM

Well yeah a lightes car needs less power to get going, but isn't it easier to move a heavy object that's already moving, cause I swear heavier cars do better when they go from a roll

ByPopularDemand · June 12th, 2007, 02:42 AM

But then again its starting to not make sense to me either

Stang6899 · June 12th, 2007, 05:18 AM

The i6's are incredibly slow...I would know because I have one. I believe they are rated at around 115-120 hp depending on the year. They arent fast at all.

ByPopularDemand · June 13th, 2007, 12:59 AM

Yes i6 is eating dust

well if it'd be on a downward slope, a heavier car might have an advantage there. (I think). but yeah on a flat surface, i dont see how it would matter much. yeah it's easier to move an object that's already moving, but it would be easier for the lighter car too, not just a heavy one.

you obviously failed physics, because from a roll a heavier car already has more forward momentum. two objects in motion, moving at a constant speed, the heavier one is going to have more forward momentuim. you dont know what your talking about.
