I normally dont post a whole lot but I couldn't pass up this opportunity. I work with a MORONIC Ford Taurus SHO owner who made a statement today that blew me away. Mind you, he has MAYBE a couple bolt ons.......MAYBE!! He said....and I quote..."I know my car can beat 90% of the cars on the road!". Who here would like to prove him wrong??? I'm looking for something BONE STOCK. I don't wanna embarass the guy too bad. Plus I dont want to give him any excuses to use after the ass whoopin takes place. I just want to prove a point and give someone the opportunity to whoop a lil ass at the same time. Any takers??

Yeah next tues should work OK.

remember its just a stock monte SS the equal to his SHO... If his is a V6 one then he doenst need to know mine is a new one with a V8, i just wont open the hood. And if his a V8 then even more fair... right? hahah

Im on the street tires again now too, so it will have garbage 60 foots but still should run mid 13's , that should be more than plenty.

So is this car modded at all? 6 or 8?

I may have to bring the camaro down to for some low boost passes.

JohnnyT
07-12-2007, 02:24 PM
It's a V6 and its a slug, modded or not. He said he could take V8 cars, so you can open your hood if you want... :)

how about a 6800lb diesel truck, it doesnt smoke when the 250 shot is sprayed. LOLOLOL all stock appereance even the exhaust, just a programmer a egt gauge and Nitrous. Last Year 5.0 knows the one im talking about.

I got a silverado SS iv been working on for a buddy but thats totally not stock once the hoods popped.... and needs some tunning yet.

this reminds me of something, not anything to do with this guy but: there is a guy that lives near me with a POS sho and i pulled out in front of him one day and he sped to catch up to me. he followed me to my house and watched me back into the garage. now every friday and sunday like clockwork him and a buddy in a 98ish mustang stop in front of my house, rev their motors and peel off. i just sit on my deck with a beer pointing and laughing. they find it a fun thing to do i guess.

sorry for the hijack, back to some racing!

If someone considers that the VAST VAST VAST majority of cars are boring, mundane, econo/minivan/boring sedan mobiles, claiming to beat 90% of them isn't a stretch, nor is it impressive.

If I wasn't going to be in Texas, I'd bring the valiant....stupidest guy I've ever raced was a SHO owner.

I ran a 13.3 or something to his 15.0....and then he came up to me in the lanes and said "you got me off the line"

I swear, it was probably the wierdest look back that I've ever given to a guy..."of the line?!? You kiddin', right?"

07-12-2007, 03:43 PM
I cannot wait for this race to happen!! All this guy does is talk about this slow ass SHO and what mods he's thinking about buying. He can barely keep the damn thing running!

Prince, THIS GUY saying that he can beat 90% of the cars on the road is a COMPLETE stretch. Strong SHO's run 15.5-15.9 quarter miles. This guys SHO is FAR from strong. I'm thinkin about running this guy in my Denali!!!!

..."I know my car can beat 90% of the cars on the road!"...

In reality, his is not BSing anyone. Even stock, an SHO will be able to beat 90% of the cars on the road. I am not talking about just performance cars here, I am talking about EVERY car on the road.

Considering that the most widely produced vehicle is an F150 and the #1 car is the Camry, it is no surprise that the SHO is faster.

If we talk about what you see on HWY 100, he is still correct. The VAST majority of the cars on any given weekend are slow turds with fart cans.

It is safe to say that less than %10 of the cars on the road can beat an in-tune stock SHO.

Ask this guy how he reasons the statement. A honda Civic Si is faster than %90 of the cars on the road.

This Link (http://www.albeedigital.com/supercoupe/articles/0-60times.html) would say that his car isn't that much faster than your average new car. Keep in mind that the 07 Camry and Altima with V-6s run 15.0-15.1 in the quarter, about the same as a V-6 SHO.

I don't know if I'm ashamed to be a SHO owner or what...??? But if you're talking so stupid like this guy I wouldn't even classify him as a true SHO enthusiast so I guess it doesn't matter.....

I think SHO's are overall one of the most fun cars around, not the fatest but they'll get up and go. And you can find them so cheap it's sad, but apart from the motor/trans it's really just a Ford Taurus.....
