Mitsubishi EVO against my AAR #467838 09/14/09 12:15 PM 09/14/09 12:15 PM

He asks if I want to get my AAR out and "race a real car". I just laughed at him. I was a good boy and didn't run him (even though there is a very nice long straight stretch in front of my house). It just cracks me up that he thinks his EVO could "blow my doors off". I wanted to ask him when he was going to grow a set and buy a real car, but I refrained. 67 Dart GT 340 4 speed 70 AAR Cuda 408 6 barrel 96 Indy Ram original owner 2011 Hemi Durango

He must have used the term to me about riding in or racing his "real car" 3 or 4 times in the 1 day that I saw him. I think 4 doors are for geeks or mommies.just my opinion. I remember that when I was in high school, if you owned a 4 door and thought it was cool, you got laughed at. 67 Dart GT 340 4 speed 70 AAR Cuda 408 6 barrel 96 Indy Ram original owner 2011 Hemi Durango

He's probably going to tell his friends about how scared you were to race him after all he put the challenge up you declined..

I am sure there are quite a few that can beat my Cuda. I know my Cuda is not the fastest car in the world. It runs good for what it is. It was just funny and a little annoying. Maybe I should have just taken him out and whooped him. But then everyone would be complaining about me street racing. 67 Dart GT 340 4 speed 70 AAR Cuda 408 6 barrel 96 Indy Ram original owner 2011 Hemi Durango

Save it for the track not only for the safety factor but he's got AWD too. I would also guess like most turbo cars, a little tweak to the boost controller will yeild significant HP increases. 2017 Contusion Blue Challenger T/A 392 M6 "BLKNBLU"

Turns out, it had crank walk. Mick 69 Dart GTS 440 mopar .590 cam, Edelbrock heads, 3200# best et 6.45, 106.78, 10.14, 132.88 mph, 1.47 60ft best 60ft 1.36

Was he talking about racing in a straight line? Because them cars and the WRX were never made to drag race.

Wonder if this thread would ever been started if they actually raced? Reality check, that half the population is smarter then 50% of the people and it's a constantly contested fact.
