Actually, I myself would fear racing a ricer more than anything. Losing to a Z06, Old Muscle, Viper, another Mustang, or a Grand National, atleast I know I'v been bested by a admirable opponent... On the other hand, racing a ricer, esspecially in a 400hp+ car... if you lose, you lose your dignity. :p

Its like the Lion, getting killed by another Lion or beast of equivlent size/power. Losing to a ricer, is like the Lion getting killed, one on one, by the Gazelle or a Zebra.

A cammed and sprayed LS1. Impossible to beat from a roll unless we have huge boost and a ported blower. Spray might even be needed. Don't believe me? Race one!

A heavily modified 90-94 Talon/Eclipse AWD If you run him from a stop and the driver is good you will look like a bitch. Then the question is can you catch up.

Why do I say the above. I used to have a 93 Talon that ran in the mid 11's, I was the guy whipping on unsuspecting v8 owners. I have alot of respect for those guys.

I have a couple of friends who have 400HP ones, and they just plain ruthless down low. I dont even play from a stop becuase I get walked.


From a roll.

anytype of ls1/ls6 based powerplant on the spray, single turbo supra's, and other 03/04's

I didn't think anyone would say this, but I completely agree. Around here the fastest cars are LS1s and LS6s. All are heads, cams and a lot of spray. It's ridiculous how fast they are...by no means unbeatable, but they're fast.

Supras also make me nervous. You never know if it's just BPU or upgraded twins/big single. Most of the Supras around here make the 1000 bike guys decline races....that's how fast the Supras here are. :uh oh:

I used to really fear single turbo supra's and H/C + spray LS1's
but since I went to 21lbs on the KB I really dont have any fear.
I have respect but not fear. Soon the N20 will be finish and I will have 700+rwhp :rockon:

no one said fox bodys:shrug:
they will always scare me. it only takes a few grand to make them a beast, and they are so light to begin with:rockon:
Ls1's one spray will make me a lil nervous but after seeing my friend split his block on 150 shot i always try and tell myself that it will happen to them when racing me:rollseyes hehe...
hopefully when i get dont ill be in the mid 11s but thats a long way from unbeatable, but most street players around here will still give me a lil' respect esp. in an old pick-up:bowdown:

probably an old school 5.0 with an e303 and some nitrous, or a supercharger.

oh yeah, fat slicks and skiny's up front and a huge hood are pretty scary.
