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.

From a dig I fear anything with 200hp(turbo lag is a bitch)

on the freeway I fear APU supra's, 911 turbo's, and a heads/cam/n20 ls1/ls6 is crazy fast. Amazing how quick those cars can be with a little ve mods and giggle juice.

nitrous ls1/ls6

ok why does everyone fear these cars so much? I have seen a video of a 03 pullied cobra beat a ss with a 100 shot of nos. besides the freakin ls1 doesnt even have forged internals does it? that means it will be having trouble a lot sooner than the cobra would even if the cobra had a 100 shot to.

Im on my buddies log in name here at work, but i have an 03 cobra with the normal mods(pulley,chip etc.) and i used to have a 87Grand National, i think my old car could take my 03 in the 1/4. Those things are just killers from a dig!! My cobra handles better though..but I miss that TURBO sound.

Nothing like getting yanked 6+ cars very fast to humble you...

Car is from RSI in Houston and makes 900rwhp off of spray and 1050rwhp on the bottle. I thought it was my friend Cody's GTS for a few seconds, then realized it wouldn't be a race in my favor... haha

Anything AWD and pushing over 20 psi of boost scares me a bit. Consistently fast launches mean you play catchup and if you add good top end power to the AWD combination, you better have something quick. Unfortunately, most AWD turbos are ricers adding to your embarassment.

Where I live, the only cars that I fear are Red Steeda Q400's and yellow 03 Cobras. I'll race anything but those. Here in Jupiter, Florida, the Highway Patrol has the Steeda Q and a little further south in Boyton Beach, the Police have the Yellow 03. It's cool and scary at the same time. It sucks when they are faster than you.
