It costs $138K to lose to a 240

[gsracer]

Well i was out a few nights ago in my car
96 S14 w/ redtop SR 14 Lbs FMIC exhaust etc etc.
When i pull up to a light with a brand new silver Aston Martin Vantage DB7 with a V12. So these two middle aged guys are looking over at my car and laughing, so i laugh and smile minding my own buisness. Then they rev there engine and continue to laugh. So we have a little dialogue and decide to race rolling after we pass the trafic light on the oppisite side.

When we punch it in 1st i pull ahead by a bumper, 2nd i pull ahead a little more (my rear tire is at his bumper) when i throw third i pull ahead by a full car, and its that way up until 115 MPH (damn it!!!!!!!!).

when we get to the next ligth he asks me what happen and i tell him my speed limiter saved you. Hes like thats fast for a 4 cyl, and i say yeah and it didnt gost 140 grand.

one thing though that is the most sexy sounding engine i have ever heard

[old_s13]

excellent!

[Maeda]

Good for them. =)

[TurK]

Get emm!! Good kill

[Steeles]

not that I doubt your story but i HIGHLY doubt it was one of the V12 DB7s that you raced. thats a 435hp engine in those things. They are heavy but not THAT heavy. and very limited production. only like 150 cars or something iirc.

[gsracer]

he said it had the vanquish engine, i saw him later the next day at a car show, and it had a v12, i saw it with my own eyes.

it was auto matic not stick.


according to google v12 db7 weighs 3924 lbs and the 96 s14 weighs 2848 lbs, thats 1000 lbs difference.

[Steeles]

and a 200hp difference. ease up your slipping into rice defense mode man. all that could have been said in one post. there is an edit function.

[NervGS]

HAHAHAH... Awesome!!!

Reminds me of the time someone here beat a 355 (on a street where the sunset's ) and some sport bike in their old s13...

End result: I'm laughing out loud, Bike rider gives us thumbs up, 355 driver stops by us side by side at light with a broken ego and does only thing capable of posing in a expensive sports car other then trying to look good, a 10 ft burnout. That made it even funnier.

GSracer - reread my original post. i said I didnt doubt you ran or even beat an Aston. I questioned whether or not it was definately a V12 you ran because there are no real visual clues on a DB7 that indicate it. I also know the HP figures of the V12 DB7 and can guesstimate your approximate HP level. knowing all of that and from a rolling start it dosent add up to me that you beat a V12 DB7. you say you saw it and it is in fact a V12. fine I cant contridict you because I've seen neither car. if I was calling you a liar I'd have raised the B.S. Flag smilie all over this place. I figured you raced an I6 DB7 and one. That would numerically make more sense, sine the supercharged six puts out around 335-385 (depending on which model year it is)

and now seein gyour mod list i ralize i was being way to generous with your HP level. and now i have to from a roll even with the auto... on a roll he would destroy you unless one of two things. 1. he cant drive for shit, and if he reved an automatic at you I dont rule this out OR 2. he was just playing with you. all he had to do was stand on the gas and youd be history. with your mods i'll give you 250hp max. we'll use the curb weights YOU posted 2890, he had 435 (thats actually BHP) and weighs 3980.. 0-60 in less that 5 seconds? yeah you beat a V12

[TurK]

maybe he was "short shifting"

thats from "the last race" if non of yall seen it...lol

[gsracer]

steeles- im not saying you did call me a liar ( i implied it though =-) but for real, belive me i dont think or didnt think it was possible either , i checked on line the second i got home and they run low 13s according to most websites ive seen, and im very doubtful of my car at times, i did not know it was a v12 at the time till i saw it the next day. i have beat porsche 911 carreras (non turbo) and they run low 13s too. Who knows maybe he is a bad driver (automatic pathetic) or my car is really fast but i wouldnt know since ive never dynoed it or ran it at the track,

[twitchy]

i would take the vantage

[gsracer]

I must be crazy not to mention liar , i understand now why every one talks crap about the people on this board cuz WE'RE a bunch of assholes. disregard my post if you want, thats fine you guys werent there i was so belive what you want , i do know however what a car sounds like when your on it , and what it sounds like when your not so...

<----- lol. nevermind

[gsracer]

ill come back with an afadavit or a sworn statement notorized with a copy of the registration of the driver so you guys can be happy. LOL

[nightwalker]

everyone's an asshole here!

[gsracer]

i know tell me about it sheesh.

[Armysweitzer]

So the weather in southern Rhode Island was about 45 with random sprinkles. I went to school, slept through most of it and then I came home after spending some time with my Girlfriend. Oh yeah I almost forgot cause I know you all care, I wasted 1 hour with a Marine taking some tests and what not deciding if I want to join or not. All in all it was a good day seeing how I ran into very few assholes to ruin my day.

Then I read this...To be quite honest I thought I might get a cool video out of it at the least. What I got was a pissing match where nobody is going to win. Even if you people read through my stupid day and are reading this I doubt any of you will bother heading my adive. GROW UP. Why do you raise your stress level over someone racing another car. If he won cool, if hes lying keep it to yourself and let him have his 4-5 Zilvia posts glory...

To all a goodnight

(nightwalker we should do coffee sometime and talk about how we agree)

[nokeone]

i want one of those...i want the vert though...pimp that fuckin thing with the top down in the summer time...i'd roll around with my fly down to save the girlies time cause bitches be on my shit...werd!

[Wei240]

get rid of your speed limiter and race him again

[gsracer]

lol then id lose, i wasnt top speed testing the thing and i dont have to go to the bathroom,im not stressed i was just making my case, is it a better car than mine YES, would i trade mine for it IN A HEART BEAT, i love that car, it is beautiful and sounds damn sexy, you all know on the street anything can happen i won that night next time well see what happens

[TurK]

lol nice sig gsracer

[gsracer]

i was inspired what can i say

[stealthj]

i would trade it in a heartbeat too, but then id sell it and buy a whole buncha 240's

and whats this? cant enjoy a fun win over an exotic without being harrassed and shit

[HyperTek]

but you would loose if you both where trying to pick up Paris Hilton.. haha

[nokeone]

she's a whore...she'd do um both...lol..then again..she is a money grubbing whore...sooo yeah, you're prolly right..

[Rekisito]

Perhaps if GSracer gave us some time slips it would be more believable.

edit:

I thought I read vanquish first. If it was a V12 vantage his kill was totally possible.
