wuts up guys. i dont post most of my races (like joeyballs ) but these races i had to post. well not so much the rx8 but this the rx8 was the first race.

i was cruising at 65 when a rx8 pulls up revving. I could barely hear this over my invidia . i think im gonna go back to stock exhaust because slow cars keep trying to race me. Anyways i hear him (barely heard this) down shift, so i quickly downshift to 4th even though i shoulda went to 3rd... he went first and took a 1/2 car lead. my car went up to 5500 and just skyrocketed in front of him. I must have put atleast a bus length on him before i stopped. than he rolled up to me we tried to do a few more pulls but couldnt because of traffic. we both gave each other thumbs up and than he got off the highway.

Than as the drive goes on....

I keep cruising at 65-70ish just listening to music. Top is down during all this btw. didn't expect any racing. I see this car with xenons pulling fast to my left (im in the middle lane). It pulls up next to me and i just glance and im like oh w.e just another 6 series. w.e let him go. he goes in front and i see its an M6. Im thinking Holy **** i always wanted to race a newer M series. I go next to him cruise at 70 but he doesnt take. traffic is thick too.

Traffic clears up i hear him down shift. im 1/2 car ahead of him at about 80 in 6th gear. I ****in shift to 5th like a jack ass (should have went to 4th) he gunned it caught up to me took a 1/4 car lead, right when my car hit about 6500 i stopped his pull and started pulling on him. Beat him by a 1/4-1/2 a car at the end of 5th. we both gave thumbs up and he got off the highway. Nice guy


Spark notes:

Kraftwerks SC high boost 07 S2k vs. RX8= Rape
KW SC S vs. M6= lucky victory of 1/4-1/2 a car. thank god we couldn race above 125. he woulda raped me a new asshole

Oh and if any thinks im bsing.... shit i was the first to expect a huge loss to the M6... but that race did give me a big

MasterForce

awesome kills!!!!

DeadZero

i believe it cuz the M6 does weigh ALOT more then our cars. That must have been the greatest feeling ever to beat a 100k+++ car

UmarS2K

Good kills

quick google for 1/4 times

found a timeslip saying an M6 ran 12.3@117

isn't that around what the KW guys were getting? i thought they were higher due to traction issues but still somewhere near there.

R&T says:
[QUOTE=road and track.com google hit]Surprisingly, neither car feels as fast as their identical 4.1-second 0-60-mph times indicate, at least in real-world driving. Which is strange, because 4.1 is fast. Really fast. Faster than a Ferrari 612 Scaglietti, every Aston Martin and the Bentley Continental GT. Equally impressive are quarter-mile times of 12.4 sec. (the few cars barely quicker include supercars such as the Ferrari F430, Lamborghini Gallardo and Murci

depends on driver but ive seen many many m6 drivers hitting 12.5-12.7 at 112-115

wow that was a close race. Its crazy our cars can hang with the best of best 500hp V10 Sedans.

KW AP2 2910lbs* 400hp = 7.2lbs per HP
BMW M6 3909lbs 500hp = 7.8lbs per HP


*includes 2855lbs OEM s2k weight plus estimated 55lbs for KW S/C. If someone has actual weight of all KW S/C hardware including fluids please let me know.


It kinda makes me wish my car wasnt dynamatted and didnt have a stereo system in it. Hell i still have stock headers, and exhaust and a softtop. I'd imagine an older ap1 with no softtop, a lightweight exhaust and wheels with a spoon hardtop and a Kraftwerks kit would make for hell of a killer combo.

i have a lighter than oem but not too light exhaust, and a wheels that are a shit load lighter than stock wheels (ce28s).

s.hasan546

oh and also if you go by whp

S2k- 2910 lbs/ 350whp (low estimate for my car)= 8.3 lbs per hp
M6- 3909/ 430 whp (approx. 14-15% loss)= 9.0 lbs per hp.

lol i want to sell all the mods on my civic si and put the money into the s2000

hehe

4.56 rear end with a light single exit exhaust should do the trick.
