Got called out..

**blackhawk01** · 02-22-2008, 07:12 PM

Ok so apparantly this guy in a 1991 Nissan Sentra claims he can beat me. He said he is gutted...no turbos..no nothing...stock motor. He said he wants to put money on it...whats my best bet? (Maybe he will sandbag me?)

**Wesman** · 02-22-2008, 07:32 PM

I have no idea what to say. Thats a weird one.

**Silver Streak** · 02-22-2008, 07:52 PM

I would say both of you have a good look at eachother's cars before making a bet.. but there is always bragging rights if you dont want to put money on it.. Run him.. if he beats you.. good for him.. but I think he would have to had something pretty stout...

In a 1991 Nissan Sentra with a stock engine?? Am I missing something here??

I could probably outrun one of those on my bicycle lol.

The car has 110HP. He can gut it all he wants, its still going to be slow as piss. Even if his car weighed 1200lbs (thats HALF its original weight) you would still have the power to weight ratio advantage

**Silver Streak** · 02-22-2008, 08:37 PM

I'm more thinking N20...

**motocrosser_28** · 02-22-2008, 08:43 PM

ok its a 1991 Nissan Sentra with a stock engine and hes calling you out lol those cars r slow as piss i say you race him and show what real horse power can do instead of that rice hes packing lol

**Johns00Z28** · 02-22-2008, 08:44 PM

I'm thinking race him for money and take his money. If he beats you, pay him, then kick his ass afterwards for lying...lol.

**Getzen_Guy** · 02-22-2008, 11:13 PM

ok wait...... a 1991 nissan sentra???

unless he's invested about 20k into that car.... as in turbos (big ones) and engine swap.... and building up the engine.

and you're in a firehawk correct??

he must be cracked out hard

rapter34 · 02-23-2008, 12:18 AM

yeah either he is high or he is lying and has a shit ton done to the car. but I would guess he is a retard. WTF i'm still trying to figure this Sentras logic out.

**Lawnman** · 02-23-2008, 06:13 AM

He is a ricer , they do not have a grasp on reality and what a fast car actually is.
I would be leary though and check for the NAWS!

**Cronex** · 02-23-2008, 06:39 AM

You should run him. He definitely needs something other then a stock engine and a gutted car to run you and actually win. Maybe another car, like an F-Body or Vette. Tell him to stop being retarded.

**blackhawk01** · 02-23-2008, 07:21 AM

yeah...i may run him...if hes stock i may not even have to break 3rd gear...ill ask him to open his hood first though definantly...and hell..im pretty much stock...cept for my tune

**Cronex** · 02-23-2008, 07:46 AM

If he's legit, you should kill him. You own a Firehawk. Plus you're torque will make up for him being light. The only things I'd have a problem with in this situation is : A. He may indeed be bullshitting. B. You're car isn't produced anymore. And sucks everytime I hear another F-Body was in an accident, especially a Firehawk, so be careful obviously.

**jrc1122** · 02-23-2008, 07:57 AM

I raced a early 90's sentra - gutted with a turbo set up. I think he has an engine swap (sorry I don't know much about it) I think it was a SR20? Honestly I don't know..

We raced 1/8 mile-- I beat him by about 2 cars. It was fairly quick for what it was- He was beating 99-04 Mustang GTs, and he beat a S2000 (not that they are that fast)-- but I was one of the few people that actually beat him.

We raced at our local airport during a city sanctioned event (I posted about it last summer)

So all motor? -- I am 99% sure he can't have something to beat you.

have fun winning and earning some cash

**01ws6er** · 02-23-2008, 08:53 AM

NISSAN SENTRA!!! Unless it has this under the hood then you have nothin to worry about. Completely stock they have like 110-130 hp... You should toy with him at first, and then blow him away haha!

**blackhawk01** · 02-23-2008, 10:33 AM

tonight may be the night of glory if he shows up

**motocrosser_28** · 02-23-2008, 10:54 AM

yea man i wouldnt worry about it you gonna wax his shit all over the place he has a ricer and all them ricer boys out there like to mouth thats all they do all show and no go prolly has a 50 ft wing on there to that adds 50 horse dosent he ha ha

**EE1983** · 02-23-2008, 11:02 AM

I can only pray he at LEAST has an SE-R Sentra from 1991. I say that because I have a beater 1994 Nissan Sentra XE (1.6L)with a whopping 114hp and 6ft/lb of pavement ripping torque. The SE-R's are 2.0L with I think around 150hp.

Nonetheless, without a turbo, or nitrous, even gutted, I cant see it running any better than mid 14s, so you'd stomp him anyway. Very peculiar someone make a wager like that. Kids are crazy these days. Just be careful that he isnt running a turbo or something because at 2100-2200 lbs (gutted) with even 225whp running a small turbo or a decent nitrous shot, that could give you trouble, but I highly doubt it.
