Finally a decent kill (for me anyway)

[Papachristou]

first off before anyone flips out about a little street race, i was on a six lane road at 1AM with virtually no traffic, and sober as i was the DD
and people usually dont want to race me because my car is debadged and looks fast + the few tools that do want to race really arent worth it (stock civic with a fart can or something like that)

i usually dont post stuff as my car is rather weak but my best friend had foot surgery and cant do anything himself so i took him out for a few drinks... anyhow he was pretty hammered ( i was DD) and on the ride home, this dude pulls up one lane across from me (three lanes on each side) with brand new CTS (not that fast i know) but my buddy was egging me on right away and of course i the windows were down... i told him hell no, that CTS will eat me alive... but he kept on and the CTS guy rolled down his window and started revving his up so i figured why not... i got a FE SS, surely it cant hurt it too bad... i revved to 6k and dumped as the light turned green, smoked him off the line by four lengths... i kept waiting for him to blow by me, but he stayed about 2-3 lengths back... we got to the next light and he congratulated me saying "damn i thought my car was fast ( i was laughing on the inside thinking how slow my car is) i just held up four fingers and said "four cylinders and four wheel drive baby!!" and i dumped it again...

anyhow im sure most of u will downplay my fun but i enjoyed it, it was more than likely his lack of driving skillZ, automatic tranny and heavy/weak v6 CTS but it still felt good...

then after dropped my friend off, some dousch in a cobalt SS(stock) and a RSX-S with header (he told me he had headerS) exhaust, CAI and ignition were messing around at a light and of course i would pull up in between them, we talked a few minutes and then took off... i took the RSX-S by two lengths, the cobalt SS was a little closer.... they were starting to gain but the FE SS lets me launch so much harder than them, i get 4 cars lengths ahead and they cant catch me....

FE SS FTW

[Pr0n]

You took ESP off right?

[TCHUN003]

haha nice

[05a4flip]

new cts haha yeah right. they are 304chp you know right.

here is a stock 4wd one on a track http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nQBVJTfRSZc

also there are guys pulling 14.8 on the 1/4 mile with stock 08cts

[Videlov]

Good kill, I always enjoy a nice race story. Liked the RSX and Cobalt kills better :)

[HeHateMe]

Cool post. Nice that the other drivers were cool about it and not typical boy racer d-baggs.

[El_Chapusca]

You took ESP off right?

Thats true Esp Sucks if your trying to launch like a rocket

[Arclight]

Nice work...esp w/ the CTS

[vinny.dtw]

Launching does wonders.

[05a4flip]

yeah he must of launched it off of a building because thats the only way a stock a4 will gather the speed to beat one . I own both so I know that there is almost noway he could of won against a cts unless the other driver was not being serious.

[tdn]

i guess i don't travel these parts enough, but what have you done to your b6?

[Exanimas]

Not all CTS are 340HP. Stop trying to ruin his kill. My friend just got an 08 and I think it's about 260 at the crank or so. There's obviously more option but the kid most likely had the base model or even the 300HP model but didn't get the launch that you did. Congrats man.

And you shouldn't feed into the d-bags here that have a problem with people having fun. It took you like a paragraph just to explain the road conditions and how safe it was. Again, congrats.

[05a4flip]

also for that matter colbalt ss's run low 14's stock as well. But I hate those cars here is the forum for it where people also have their timeslips to prove it too

Your right the DI version is 304hp but even the 260hp version runs 0-60 in the mid 6's. Not trying to ruin his kill but him saying he beat a 08 cts is like him saying he beat a a4 with bt while he is stock.

[vinny.dtw]

by memory the OP has apr 1+ with FMIC + exhuast. God I have no life when I'm at work...

[05a4flip]

even with those mods he's still under 200 hp and nearly the same weight as the cts. So in theory it would be impossible for him to win that race

[Exanimas]

Hrm, I thought he had a K04? If he's 1+ then who knows. Maybe I was confusing him for someone else.

[tdn]

by memory the OP has apr 1+ with FMIC + exhuast. God I have no life when I'm at work...

even though I think the OP has a bit more than that if he won.

i've been on here for a while, but only know the setup of maybe 2 guys. and one of them is a local. i'm always lost when people post kill stories without saying what they've done to their cars.

[LampyB]

yeah Papa other than the SB clutch what other mods are you running? GIAC 1+, FMIC, neuspeed?

[AudiA4_20T]

even with those mods he's still under 200 hp and nearly the same weight as the cts. So in theory it would be impossible for him to win that race

wow man, let it go, he beat this CTS, the guy friggin said "nice car man I thought mine was fast" like how hard is this to understand?

In theory, a lot of shit should happen differently but it doesnt

[05a4flip]

I guess its too hard for me to understand. I guess I should post my kill story how I beat a m3 with a boat on land! Maybe I should be more clear I own a 08 cts and a a4 and in reality it wouldnt win either.

[Molotov]

its easy to beat m3's with boats on land, because typically they're falling off another boat into the water.

[B6480Avant]

I guess its too hard for me to understand. I guess I should post my kill story how I beat a m3 with a boat on land! Maybe I should be more clear I own a 08 cts and a a4 and in reality it wouldnt win either.

. . . he never said it was an 08 what if it was older without an oil change for 20k miles? and running poorly? flat tire? you just really don't know. . at the end its still a kill no matter the circumstances. everyone's cts isn't as fast and cool as yours i hate cobalts but ive seen some crazy ones around here

[05a4flip]

If you read the post he says a brand new cts last I checked a brand new cts meant 08 or better. What good is a kill story or a race story without proof or facts? I love kill storys its just that I love believable ones and proof makes them even better.

[B6480Avant]

their all "new" in general

[A4 in SC]

FE SS FTW

OK, I guess I'm a newb on the B6 forums, but what is FE SS? I'm thinking short shift kit, but not certain. Sorry for the somewhat OT.

[Papachristou]

Hi haters!

hey flip, stop being a dbag...of course ESP was off, i turn it off everytime i start the car,... habit now.. and im no where near stock, forgot i took my mods out of my sig (ive been here awhile, most people know what i have)....you are right, a stock a4 would probably get beat by a toyota prius, i know because both a chevy truck and lady in a minivan walked me when i was stock

it was just a brand new bone stock CTS.. i doubt even their V6s make 300 hp

apr 1+
racetec FMIC
neuspeed exhaust/test pipe
Jet jockey tip
stasis 4:1 differential
southbend FE SS clutch
JHM -1" short shifter


you can hate all ya want.. i dont and didnt think i was faster, im sure he was gaining but off the line to the next light, i was the winner and he conceded!

so any haters can go eff themselves, im happy about, i dont need "proof", i never post stuff like this

[FromS60toB61.8t]

then after dropped my friend off, some dousch in a cobalt SS(stock) and a RSX-S with header (he told me he had headerS) exhaust, CAI and ignition were messing around at a light and of course i would pull up in between them, we talked a few minutes and then took off... i took the RSX-S by two lengths, the cobalt SS was a little closer.... they were starting to gain but the FE SS lets me launch so much harder than them, i get 4 cars lengths ahead and they cant catch me....

FE SS FTW

Haha another reason you can launch better than them could be that you have 4 wheels going instead of 2 Quattro ftw you mean haha

[LampyB]

one more question...when you dumped the clutch @ 5-6K rpm your wheels broke loose right???

[Papachristou]

yeah, the rear ones spin for a second (stasis 4:1 diff) but i dont think the front ones do... ill have my wife take a quick vid tomorrow and upload it for you... the stasis diff makes it launch much much better, i used to get a torque steer feeling before putting in the diff

The CTS if its the 250hp model i'll believe. THe RSX-S and the CObalt. BULL FUCKING SHIT. Unless u raced to the end of 1st gear at 35mph.

[Papachristou]

the end of first gear? shows what you know.. apr 1+ car, there isnt much of a first gear...

its all about traction baby! you guys are thinking i raced them for 5 miles or something... it was a stoplight race to the next light.. barely a quarter mile probably... i got 3-4 car lengths on them from the jump and the rsx was gaining but not quick enough, once they hit 6k, its nothing but power till redline for them... but both cars spun bad off the line...

[bob12312357]

^^^
Are u retarded? Thats exactly my point, there isn't much of a first gear. By the time u shift ur advantage is gone.The only time you have that traction advantage is launch and first. A half decent driver in an RSX-S or cobalt would have made mincemeat of you. You left out the part about the 3 second burnout off the line by the FWD's inept drivers. Now its believable.

[Papachristou]

mincemeat ? um i dont think so... ive got every supporting mod possible for my setup so it runs decent for what it is, i know the powerband and i keep it in boost, i dont run to 6.5k then shift...if they launched perfectly i would still take them off the line and it would be neck and neck by the end of the quarter

it doesnt matter either way... that why i love stickshifts, it pits driver against driver. a better driver with a lesser car (at least for straight line) can beat someone with poor launch/shifts skills and a faster car... if its two autos running, there is no talent or skill there, each person presses the gas to the floor and thats it...

[kolan67]

"Are u retarded?"

Omg, someone on the internet is disagreeing with me. I must retaliate!

[Tacoman_Si]

Omg, someone on the internet is disagreeing with me. I must retaliate!

HEH, before i turbo'ed my honda and had some CTR cams with some other minor mods. i smoked several RSX type S's. it just boils down to the driver.


Good kill man

[EYE4SPEED]

Glad you got the kills... doesn't matter what others think since you know what happened.

He has just about every power mod a regular k03 can have. He could be making around 220-235 chp. I don't know, maybe more, but since it was shorter run , it's not unbelievable to me.

[AquattroZ]

Heya flip... eh, go fuck yaself! Quit raining on the guy's parade and stop looking for excuses to tell everyone you have a new CTS. Nice, gorgeous car by the way... ya duetchbag! The guy says he won, he won. You gonna dispute it? Gimme a break!

[T0M3K]

you were a DD? Drunk Driver ?
j/k
nice kill, some people want to destroy it for you. I killed quite new BMW 3 series with 3.Slow. I was happy, I know the driver fucked up and I got the advantage. I know what I drive, I know it sucks, but I still love my car and all those kills make me feel a bit better.
So for all haters, it doesn't matter what you have, but how you use it.
