my friend from work has been asking me almost every day "how fast is your car" and i foookin hate it when people ask that question because how do you answer, do they want 0-60, 1/4 mile, top speed, hp, torque what so instead i just say it has 260 fast points. he didnt get it being an acura "racer" and not much of a mechanic so i was like dude how about i show you.
so we drove about 30 min out of town to the steel mill where there is this huge stretch of highway that is rarely with traffic and went at it from a roll of about 60 he got ahead weighing about 800 pounds less but at about 80 i just shot passed him, then we decided to go from a stop
on the 3rd honk we gunned it i had it on ect and overdrive and the car shifted ran beuitifully he got even with me through 1st then on the shift i pulled a car and another each time he shifted till i hit 100 and i was a good 6 cars ahead he was able to stop but i needed another 1/4 mile just to stop cus of my brake fade.
his car wasnt all that great to be true, more image and "looking" fast than anything it looks identical to this

my mods 3'' cooleeze, k&N intake, synthetic in engine, tranny and lsd, and bosch 110.
all he has is intake, cam gears and exhaust, were gonna run again when he shaves his dead down, puts headers, and fuel upgrade.
