the tl will pull the quick start off of course but if you know anything about the 8, you would know that the torque for the 8 stays constant while most cars lose torque with shifts and different rpms
|
and you drive a r3 its heavier and slower than the older versions

also RX8 being RWD the drivetrain loss is alot more than FWD TL. |

and you think you picking on me gonna make your car faster? 09+ has different gearing if anything its actually faster than pre 09 version. |
my bad the r3 isnt heavier but it does for some reason pull a slower quarter mile time
|
you can stick a banana in his exhaust pipe! thats what i did when i raced against a 370z!
|
go race your boy... don't say we didn't warn you. there are times where i am following my wife and we play around in the streets even during mild acceleration i have to push the throttle more than her to at least catch-up to her. i love my 8 and i'm very sure she can out perform certain vehicles.
but this is one of those races where i can guarantee you will lose. |
i didnt start this thread as a shit talking thread, it was just to get people talking. im just wondering why everyone is so against the 8. on paper (yes i know dif driver etc) the 8 and tl are close in quarter mile times and hp per lbs car weight , so why cant my car with some slight mods shave off .15 of a second and at least make it a decent race

im just sayin i paid 600 for a cobb, 600 for the hks ignition, 600 for exhaust and pipe, plus whatever couple hund for the intake and all that cant shave enough time to even make it a decent race where it will come down to whos a better driver. this is hard for me to believe
|
I just about bought an '08 TL Type-S before I got my Jeep. Now, As much as I love the Rex, the TL-S would definitely beat it in a straight line. A stock TL, probably not, but the Type-S... ...Definitely. (unless of course, he just can't drive)

talking about dangerous? your talking about your "sweet street bike" and how fast it is compared to cars. as i stated a couple of time if you guys can read, 2 of my friends and i are GOING TO THE TRACK IN THE SPRING TO RACE the z, tl and 8. NOT TO RACE IN THE STREET, my boy wiht the z wont even go over the speed limit because he totaled an si and almost died from fucking around on the street
|
everyone remember he has an auto its not the 6 speed. i know the 6 speed would destroy me, im just sayin i think it will be close enough to show who is a better driver

its just a statement if a tl can go 130 and a 8 can go 140+ which car is faster ? its gonna be a quarter mile race in jersey, this post was just for discussion on why an 8 cant shave off enough time to make it a decent race
|
I had a TL for years (hence my name....) and it was regularly and soundly beaten by my buddys' Camry.
Yes, that's sad...... S |
