Rice Vs Lamborghini Diablo

This isn't mine, it's kind of old and it's not about buicks but is it freaking funny!

For those that don't want to read it, this guy is sitting at a stoplight behind a lamborghini and a rice popper flies up next to him and wants to race..

 

I followed that link and found a TT Supra that is 800+ HP and 683 ft lbs of torque and at a little less boost and no NOS only runs low 11's at 140 or so.. cant weigh very much... isnt that a little slow for that much power???? Just looked at the timeslips for the Buicks and a 775 rwhp 65 GS runs the 1/4 in the high 8's at 150 mph.... and I GARONTEE the Buick outweighs the Supra but a ton (almost literally).

BTW.. I checked... a Diablo will run the quarter in 11.8 seconds. Heck a McLaren F1 only runs it in 11.1 seconds... Um.. just had a funny thought... take a stout GS and put it side by side with a McLaren or Diablo and watch people's :jd:
:shock: :laugh: :grin:

 

yeah, but at the end of the 1/4 the McLaren hangs a 90 degree turn

 

The stupidity of ricers is amazing. A ricer.....take on a lamborghini.....and a Diablo at that!?!?!?!?.......yeah, right! The guy in the Lambo could've gave the ricer a 1 mile head start and then blow past him! There is a Bugatti on their too that a guy actually likes....says it has 1000 hp. Does 200 more HP count as alot on a buick 573 with 1200 HP? o No:
Some ricers can be amazing, I admit, but most of them are just plain puny.

True... and the Buick takes 5 miles to stop! :shock:

 

Wow...that thread was from 2002.

 

I said it was kinda old, lol.

 

a supra only makes that power for a couple rpm, which is why they call them dyno queens.
they might make 800 horse at 7000rpm, but look how much power they make in the rest of the powerband, its laughable.

 

Yeah, I know.... no power at idle up to about 2000 rpm, then fair power from there until the turbo boost gets to 25 lbs, then hold on! Not like our beloved Buicks.... Hold on from 500-6000 rpm! Can you say "flat torque curve"????

 

i have an 87 turbo supra *modded, that im not too proud of, cause for some odd reason i used to have a large head about it. Then i started to question why supras dont do wheel lifts.....
oh yeah, they dont have torque.

 

Supras have their place in racing... and that is roll racing. I have had the pleasure of seeing some of the fastest Supras out there... I believe we have over a dozen 600+hp Supras in Austin alone. From a stop they have traction problems because of the independant suspension, but once going... they GO! They aren't as light as many of you think they are, about 3600lbs. Oh, and they can stop and turn as well! There are videos out there of some of the Austin Supras running sport bikes (including the 1300cc Hayabusa) let me know if you want links!

 

I also know of a Civic in Houston that can run with modded Vipers... video proof available. Yeah, it isn't practical... but there are some SICK 4cyl cars out there that are really sleepers!

 

Just watch 'The Fast and the Furious' if you want to see fast rice. For some reason the last time I watched that movie (two nights ago) I was humming the Rice-a-roni jingle all through the entire movie....

 

Only problem with fast and furious and 2 fast 2 furious, every stupid ricer on the street thinks they can do what was done in that movie!:af: They find out when they mess with the "bigger-boys" that they can't really do what was done in the 2 movies:Smarty: There is some pretty amazing rice cars and porsches, lamborghinis, and whatnot that are quite impressing. The porsches and lamborghinis come natural with speed, not with NOS spray. Lambo's and porsches can show younger ricers what "speed" is all about.:TU:

Uhhhh, that movie ruined import racing. Half of all swaped motor Civics could burn most of the Buicks on here. I don't understand how you guys knock hp vs weight. I am no scientist... but it works! Take a 1500lb CRX and put a 200hp (stock) H22 Prelude motor in and bye bye most everyone. Add FI and see you later! Why is everyone against fast cars? Have you chased a CIVIC lately?

 

Nobody here is against a *real* car that runs numbers and looks even slightly good. What we're against is the rice, the huge wings, the stock motors, the "dude, I upgraded everything, the stereo, the rims, the body kit"..."what about the motor?"..."What's a motor??" kind of guys/girls. :spank:

 

Four words for ya. Alot, but not all!!!!!:eek2: :jd: :3gears:

No it's more like the civic was Chasing me! :laugh: :laugh:

 

LOL!:laugh:

Probably didn't have enough power to catch up to that 455 either with-out using some of it's cheater spray(NOS, witch actually gives ricers all their power to begin with).

-Cody:grin:

 

Did you Know civic is an antonym for POWER? :laugh:
