how would a 95 max with the mods listed in my sig do against a v70 T5. I understand that the v70 is the big station wagon 247Hp 5 cyl volvo.

it is rather 4100pds.
how would i do against it ... both of them automagics : )
im hoping to take him off the line ... break torque

 

I have driven the V70 T5R and 2001 V70T5 5 speed and they are both very quick wagons. I never raced them so I would like to hear about this after u race.

 

I got ravaged by an S70, it wasn't pretty......But the S series is obviously a tad lighter than that 2 ton beast you're talking about, so let us see and tell us what happens.....

 

Go for it. I used to drive a V70 and S70. Both were GLT's and they were fast as hell with 190HP. Let us know how it goes.

 

The wagons sure dont feel heavy when driven them!

 

well, it's a fast wagon, but I wish you good luck in representing the org.

 

Thank You

 

You sure the wagon's that heavy? I get 3,433 pounds at Carpoint.com for a 1998 T5 auto.

I have a C&D that tested a V70R, AWD automatic 247hp wagon. It did a 7.6 0-60 and 15.6 quarter. Not bad, but with your mods you should have a chance. Let us know how it goes.

 

Ugh....there is a slight problem if you race him... You have cement shoes!!

 

hmm....i drove a 99 S70 GLT auto. damn that thing was a piece! i'd floor it gettin on the highway expecting a downshift. the freakin' thing upshifted!! it wasnt fast by any means. i guess it was just that one car then...this was at a dealer though and they wouldnt let me test drive an S80 or S60 (whatever comes in T6) 5speed because it was too fast (yet they offered to let me drive a porsche, but my mom goes "no you'll kill yourself")
if nothing else, alot of the volvos look real good IMO

 

and off the line up to 70 i had 2 and a half cars on him
he started closing in real faast after 90 and thats when the race had ended i won by a lenght

i had a real good start
break torqued 2500 and counted the lights (red) (3 secs)


it was a great race.
btw. i did have my heavy bald momos on , and my system.

 

just don't race this one...
he's not stock

 

My freind gets his Volvos tuned by IPD and boy are they good Sleepers

 

No max ever tried racing me.

 

Want to race little man

 

Sure, why not? The only problem is that you're in CT.

 

You start drivin east and Ill start driven west and we will meet in the middle

 

I wish I could, I just used up my vacation.
