For my next victim, I chose a Toyota MR2 Turbo. Not the newest gen. but the one before that. From a dead stop he couldn't hang at all....probably because he doesn't know how to drive...heh heh heh...

Also a question for everyone....my good old buddy RedZMonte (remember him?) almost has his cars back after wrecking them both. Supposedly he is getting the Pontiac 3.8 Supercharged engine put in his Lumina. I'm thinking I will be able to biatch slap him still...anyone got any input on that? Thanks.

Good kill!
On the 3.8 note, watch out for that 3.8 its a pretty good engine. Here's some quick facts:
-Lumina LTZ w/ 3.8 (non supercharged) 0-60 in 7.2
i've driven it before, has great power, drives like crap
-Pontiac Grand Prix GTP (3.8 Supercharged) 0-60 in 6.8
Not bad for an auto (not available in a stick)

My younger bro is lookin into making it his 1st car and has been doin some diggin on it and says that the supercharger is running nowhere close to its capacity and a simple and cheap (under $100) pulley swap and exhaust work gets the car easily over the 300hp mark and can pull 0-60 in upper 5 second range and 1/4 mile in 13 second range!
WOW! Too bad u can't convince me to buy american. I think they're built like crap and have serious reliability issues. Besides I have to have a 5sp, which u can't have on most american sedans.
I'll always be true to my Max!
