Slowprocess 01-09-2005, 11:42 PM never heard of it. I have only heard of a gtech, and it's just a device used to measure things like hp, quarter mile time/speed, etc. Could that be what he was talking about? pre98zetec 01-09-2005, 11:44 PM zetec is the name of the motor, its not like vtec. slickrick86 01-09-2005, 11:51 PM oh ok so its just a type of moter... gotcha thx man.... well another quesion who do you think will win...?? ( i have a felling its going to be me... but he been talking about his car and im starting to think his migh not do so well at take off but win at the end...) i think its ether 94 or 96 ford focus... a 4 door sadan.... no mods which is an auto.... mine is a 89 mr2 na that is a manual... and im pretty good at take offs when i race... only burned out once..... i pretty much have a genaral idea of where my power band is... 4000-6500 rpms..... (is that righ mr2 drivers??) pre98zetec 01-09-2005, 11:54 PM umm, are you sure its a Focus and not a Contour?? Focus is from like 98 up. slickrick86 01-09-2005, 11:58 PM oh wait im sorry im thinking about my firned's fire bird... no its a 2000 or a 2001 AlienEvolution 01-10-2005, 12:01 AM unless hes done some major stuff to that focus i think you'll win...... pre98zetec 01-10-2005, 12:07 AM yeah you should be able to walk him, his cars in the mid-high 16 range.. prolly low 17s more like it. slickrick86 01-10-2005, 12:10 AM thx guys.... i want to get this race done as soon as pasable... butlatelly the weater has been bad.... and i need to change my oil.... Sleepr awd 01-10-2005, 12:26 AM mivec is mitsubishi's motors :-P just something you should know or at least some of them, not mine street_racer_00 01-10-2005, 02:59 AM Yeah, all things being equal, you should have no problems with the fuckus. Underground_Killah 01-10-2005, 03:03 AM yea, you should be able to walk him pretty good... go for it and let us know the results! Musashi3000GT 01-10-2005, 01:09 PM I love the 89 MR2 (AW11), I got my money on you bro, spank that Focus and let us know how the race went. ricesucks 01-10-2005, 03:02 PM This should turn out in your favor...your car does not have that much less HP...and weighs a lot less! Plus your a stick they are an auto! Unless its a SVT focus your not in trouble drdisque 01-10-2005, 04:03 PM i think it'll be closer than you guys think. The focus has 25 more hp and doesn't weigh that much more. BeEfCaKe 01-10-2005, 04:29 PM Focus is fwd car though... while the mr2 is rwd, which will give it advantage slickrick86 01-10-2005, 04:36 PM yeah after consulting with you guys last nihg i went to school and told him... hey want to pu money on the race and he was like naa man..... and im like ohhh don't be such a sally.... he said i think you migh beat me.... so i was like so when do you want to do it... and he said... i don't know the weather is really bad right now... when the roads clear up abit well do it... im like ok.... street_racer_00 01-10-2005, 04:47 PM Do it in the rain...lol j/k. drdisque 01-12-2005, 10:33 PM with cars with that little hp, FWD/RWD doesn't make much of a difference. vBulletin®, Copyright ©2009, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.
