93 Mark vs Mini Cooper S

[98LSC32V]

Was driving home and ran into a Mini Cooper S at a stoplight. I was surprised to see him go wot so I caught up to him at the next stop light and we both went and I pulled on him 1.5-2 cars with a tank of 87 in a stock 93 Mark. Needless to say he was surprised.

Sounds like a waste of that 87 octane lol

I never can get anyone to play around with me at stop lights anymore.

Nice! I did the same thing up against an 09 Wrx sti.

That's because there are too many gestapo around. People don't want tickets for illegal street racing.

Funny, with my car lowered, mufflers, sound system and just hot, hot, hot... I choose my battles. I don't race people with any fewer than 6 cylinders. It's just not right

And, funny enough, the ricers are coming out of the woodwork now that my car looks like it does. Hmm. Imagine that

There are quite a few 4 cylinder cars who can embarass your Mark VIII even bone stock. You would be surprised to see which cars pull hard on the top end.

I don't care if I get beat by a lawnmower. Speed is not the only determinate of a car. I race other Mustangs and things that I appreciate. I prefer to look sexy and beautiful and fast for my class. That's the only reason I say that. I am not one who is obsessed with speed, though I very much appreciate it here. Those cars will be in the junkyard in five years. I watched that happen to the Supras that I jonesed after for a lot of years.

I take that back. It was a 2006 sti that I layed the pipes to. The 2009 looks nothing like it.

Here is exactly what the car looked like. Same color, wheels, and everything.

I guess I did pretty good in my 4000# boat considering those little 4-bangers should hit 60 mph in under 5 seconds. To top it all off, that was before the dyno tune on the fail mail-order chip manually shifting like a king on street tires. I'd like to run him again sometime and I've seen him around, so he's in the area.

That goes to show that his 14psi turbocharged 4-banger is no match for my all motor V8. It's all proportional in the end. My buddy put the screws to a lopey-cammed Big Block Barracuda with a 3.8 V6 Regal, but that was also with 23psi worth of boost.
