Please Don't Feed the Trolls
PrprLine,
I take it that your user-name is an abbreviation for "Proper Line." Sounds as if you attended an afternoon driving school, and now you can't get over yourself.
I am making the official call.
If you'd like to prove your point, let us know where you live, and I'm sure we can arrange for you to show one of us how you did that.
In the meantime, I think the proper line for this thread can be found at the top of this post.

Come on now....You arent giving Jettas enough credit. VR6s are very close in performance to 5 speed VQ Maximas.

Two very simple words: The Driver.
I used to beat faster cars with my 1992 Sentra SE-R because I was able to zip in and out of traffic (bad...I know ) and I was young and stupid. Street racing is like a chess game...you have to think 3 and 4 moves ahead so you don't get boxed in...all at 100MPH+. If all drivers were at the same skill level why would anyone race? They could just look at your car and say "Congradulations"!
Having said that, I don't street race nearly as dangerously as I used to....I'm so old now it's sad

You are pretty dumb to challenge something you know nothing about...my nine-deuce will hang with mostly any new car.

this guy is a little to excited for his own good. One "kill" on a guy that wasn't trying, and he thinks he's king of the road.
Hey VW-Guy...drive a 6 speed Maxima. You'll take back what you said.

Only if you are bone stock and a fair driver and the nine deuce is fully modded with a good driver.
The fastest N/A so far is a 14.3 and that was with some simple mods, they can be as fast as high 13's with a good driver and all bolt ons.

Good point BriGuy. Sounds like you might be one of the few, the proud, the pimps that know how to take a proper racing line.

The Jetta, on the other hand, is about 1 second off to 60. No?
loosely used the term "hang with"

I would have to agree with your comment that, over the aggregate, 2k2 6spd is faster than 99.5 VR6 5spd. I would however call attention to your confusion over what an aggregate is. You say that over the aggregate, ANY 2k2 max will win. The point of the aggregate, however, is that we are combining the results of all entries, and thus we can't single out "ANY" 2k2, or VR6 for that matter.
Because of that, it is this that i wonder: Does your confusion over aggregates indicate confusion over the importance of a proper racing line? Really, people. I cannot emphasize enough. A proper racing line is a BIG DEAL.
Good luck with your lines.

the only one confusing the "aggregate" is you. there are two aggregates in this sense, and you're wholly ignoring one of them. i said the aggregate of "ANY" 2k2, but you think i meant the aggregate of "ALL".
i'm saying ANY GIVEN 2k2 will beat your car in the aggregate sum of races. i'm sure you will be able to find A race with A 2k2 that you can win (as you already claim) - why would i even bother to make that point? however, even the 2k2 that you supposedly beat, if you raced it 100 times, he will beat you 99 out of those 100.
and yes, you're correct when you say that you can't eliminate any single 2k2 or vr6. i'm saying that you took ANY one of those 2k2s and pit it against ANY VR6, run them a bunch of times, and there is no way the aggregate result of the races would come out in favor of the VW (both stock, obviously).
my point of contention with you isn't that i think you're lying. anything can happen on the road. but you clearly know that our CAR has at least a 1.5 second advantage in the quarter mile over your CAR. moreover, you yourself said that a race at highway speeds is not a driver's race. the way that your first post brags and derides a car that is clearly faster than yours, leads everyone here to think that the only conceivable purpose of you posting on this forum is to start trouble. you got lucky dude, just face it.

O contraire. You have described the beginning of a drag race. A proper line is different. But to endulge on our scenario---In a drag race, a proper line would include you being in front. Or, in the case of me racing you, me in front, and you, carrying your speed into the curb behind me.

Proper what line? Is that like when I rev it upto 6550 RPMs and side step my clutch from a stop while in second gear only to leave two 250 foot black marks? Hey.. thats 500 feet of proper lines i guess.

But I would again point out your misunderstanding of what an aggregate is. To refer to a single car, as in ANY, from an aggregate is incorrect. The aggregate is a summation of all the race results, in this case. You have referred to this concept as the aggregate of "ALL," which might, for example, include one race from each 2k2 and VR6 in the sample. The aggregate of "ANY" simply does not exist. Unless, you were to do say 10 races. But then, you should have referred to it as the aggregate of "n" races between two said vehicles. Is this what you intended to communicate?

Proper line...right...so basically the guy was less willing to push his car around some twisties than you were. Can't blame him though, stock Maximas probably don't handle as well as a Jetta, though I don't really know. He would have really had to have been off the throttle for you to "blow him away". As far as your comment about you being in front in a drag race...you're kidding, right? My 2k auto would kill you, let alone a 2k2 6spd.
