    03 terminator! surprised

    well some of you might remember me asking about this race and what not well, it happed unexpectedly on the way home today, he kept trying to get me to and i kept saying na after taunting and taunting i finally said f**k it. He had 2 people with him, his mods are lt's magnaflow exhaust, 2.8 pullley and a ported plenum that we know for sure i cant remember all. he put down i think 444 and 420tq. his fastest time on street tires was 8.5 at 79 and this last weekend he told me he ran a 7.9 at 87 on DR's. So anyways after him hitting it and hearing the supercharger i finally down shifted into 3rd at 70 and ended up slowing down to 50 in 2nd and he gave me the nod he was ready so i honked it off and i went sideways but didnt lose anything really it still snapped, i heard a whine for a second and by 125 i had a car and a half on him! I couldnt believe it, im sure yall are going to call BS but i wouldnt be trying to waste yalls damn time. I kept looking in my side mirror and i just watched that front end keep picking up after each shift but he never pullled and i didnt either. We both hit even but i guess mine just hit a lil harder faster. He gave me thumbs up like 4 times and just kept going. which is weird cuz in any of his other races with me in his other cars he keeps trying as in his car is going to get faster each time. Sorry for another long story, we will get on vid soon becuase ldurham will give him a go as soon as he gets his car runnin.

    I'm not calling BS. A termi trapping 87 mph on dr's isnt making 445 whp lol a bolt on ls1 will trap that in the 1/8th all day long... Hell a stock termi should trap that I'd say you did good on the kill and that the other guy needs to either man up and say his car is stock or do some serious tuning and checking lol

    yeah....good run but something isn't right with that stang. With your mods it really shouldn't have been close if he has the mods he says he does. Maybe his tune sucks??

    I agree. With his mods he should be faster. Nice kill, especially since the Termi driver is doing all the sh*t talking.

    Thanks guys, i rode in it and it does pull hard it felt faster than mine but everything does when ur not driving. It does have headers for sure i saw them and the pulley is tiny so i do know its not stock, i was waitin for him to come around me. Idk if its tuned i just know he just got it about a month or so ago like 42xxx miles i think for 27k! Waste of money could have easily bought a modded c5 zo6 for that. Ill get vids posted up this weekend of other races with him and ldurham

    440 to the wheel should get you 7.5 to 7.7 in the 1/8th depending on the gazillion factors. (he probably should've trapped higher than 87, as others have said) So, if he ran a 7.9, that's believeble if he had a bad '60 foot time.

    I'm surprised he didn't rape you from the 50 mph roll.

    hey man im very surprised too, i feel like my car has always done good as some say "factory freak" but i dont know about that. My car definitely surprises me all the time. Im not lying about his mods i have seen those besides the ported plenum of course but hopefully we can get something on video friday night.

    I believe you on his mods and on the outcome.....I'm still saying his car isn't right or something. That car should be in the 11's. Factory freak or not you're not running 11's with headers.

    Considering the Termi had (3) people in it or maybe 600+ lbs makes a big difference also...

    Absolutely! I'd say the 300 extra pounds would be worth ~.3 tenths in the 1/4, or somewhere in the neighborhood of 3 car lengths.

    Try him again with only him in there.

    I once was told that every 100lbs nets around the equivalent of losing/gaining 10hp (depending if you add it or lose it). Don't know how much truth there is to that, but seems far.

    Up until a certain E.T., it is as good of a rule of thumb as I've heard of and experienced.

    100 lbs in reduction = ~.1 quicker E.T.
    10 hp increase = ~.1 quicker E.T.

    The kid is a lil sketchy, so he very well may be lying bout his numbers. I wanna point out that one of the reasons for that kid to buy that terminator was because he wanted a car that would beat 02sunsetorangeZ's car hahahahaha

    hmmm its definitley not doubtful but a pulley headers and ported plenum and stuff definitely isnt a sloucher. He has always been sketchy like lee said. He hada 97ish gt with a 5.0 in it out a cobra that year that supposedly and bone stock i put LENGTHS on him. Either way if he is lying lee is also correct about his goal to beat me, and even if he is lying about what he put down im not worried cuz i know he has a pulley and headers atleast and that is a quick car for that. Also to think he paid 27k for that cracks me up.
