Yes, i'm sure that your friend has doen 175 mph on a STREET in a NEON. Why'd he even stop to get the ticket then? He could've kept going at 175 mph and left the cops in his dust. You're full of BS.

highway, we have a lot of highways in montana, and even more highway patrols, plus he's a prep, and speeding away from the hp's isnt something that he would think of.

and is it me or are there a lot of noobs, just trying to act smart.

dude, that neon isnt stock you know, david (my friend) put a lot of performance parts into it, and it can go 150+, he's aquired several speeding tickets at 160-175mph. dont jump to conclusions just because you have something aginst neons.

and why do you keep spaming this thread with negative comments?

Easy there, tiger.

I've done a bit of calculating. Given the Neon's frontal area, mass and coefficient of drag, it's going to need to be considerably more powerful than even the SRT-4 model to reach 175mph - assuming the gearing will take it that far. Dyno printout, please (or a scan of his ticket(s)).
 
erm... i think we've gone slightly off topic, don't you think?

No, I think this is funny - I love it when Famine pwns people who aren't me... :lol:
 
1. Make 3 totally obedient clones of self.
2. Get time machine.
3. Go to the military base with my three clones, steal a military HUMVEE with a 50 cal. on top, and take as much ammunition and fuel as I can.
4. Go back to the Middle Ages with the HUMVEE and the three clones.
5. Take over the world.

:trouble:
 
My, what an evilgenius you are... :lol:
 
I'd take my girlfriend to the local Ford dealership and buy a GT. What's more important, school, lfs, or taking my girlfriend on a ride she will never forget in a GT?

Ahem, MR.
 
Gosh, you people reply fast. Hey, it was that damn 18 wheeler's fault!
 
I really don't know. There are too many things I would like to do. It's probably impossible to do just that thing you would like to do, so you're going to die with a bad feeling...... :sly:
This question should be in the: The (completely unofficial) "Questions that can't be Answered" thread.. . No?? 💡
 
I think there's been quite enough hate in this thread. I don't want to see any more voicing of opinions such as:

Hurt some people
Kill some other people
Beat up my english teacher

It's all in violation of the AUP, and the next instances of it will garner warnings for their posters.

I'll grant you, 175 mph is a silly claim. But for a stock SRT 150 mph is not silly. My plain-jane 1995 ACR, with its little 2.0 naturally-aspirated SOHC, will turn 134 mph given a mile or two of empty freeway.

However, this topic, as Giles says, is very close to getting closed thanks to all the suggestions of hatred and violence.

It certainly isn't. But 150mph and 170mph are two different beasts - speed increases by only, what, 13%, so power required increases by 13% (1.133) CUBED - 46% (1.455). That's a lot.

As I said, 175mph from a Neon requires far more power than even the SRT-4 - and that's not bagging on Neons, but just a function of how it gets through the air.

In case I didn't make myself clear, I was actually agreeing with you. 👍
 
Tough. I want an argument.

Grrrrraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaagh!

:lol:
 
Arsenal sucks.
 
It would certainly be the best time human kind ever witnessed:lol:

WHY DO THESE DAYS ONLY COME IN THE END OF THE WORLD.
A message to the people, lets act like we're gonna die, I gotta see it before I die without fun:lol:

Now there's something no-one can argue with. Sod.
 
If tommorow was the Apocalypse, I'd build an Apocolyptic Fallout shelter out of Maglites and duct tape.

The **** if I die with those set up there.
 
Step 1: Steal Porsche up the street.
Step 2: Go to supermarket & fill 911 up with Mint Milanos.
Step 3: Get directions to Ralph Lauren's house.
Step 4: Drive to Ralph Lauren's house & steal McLaren F1.
Step 5: Drive around in F1 eating Mint Milanos.

Sounds like a plan to me!
 
Truthfully and ultimately, I would probably end up stealing one of those nearly-indestructable wild bear-protection suits and take a stroll down the street. I wouldn't mind driving an insanely fast car or two, but it would be the end of my day. I'd like to fire a .50 cal, though, that would be interesting.

I assume the Army would be out in full force though and they'd be authorized to use lethal force at will. I'd probably just phone up a few celebrities or try and capture it on film for future generations.

;)
 
Lose my virginity, and do something I would never do (ie skydiving or bungie jumping etc.)
 
Is it just me, or does most people want to act out on their GTA fantasy? Seems it's either that or have sex. Except MdnIte, of course. He want's to dance naked in the popcorn machine. :lol: 👍

I'd cook my family a nice meal, and tell them how much I love them. Then we'd sit around drinking and watching DVDs until it all stopped.

This is more like it. Say your goodbyes and I love yous, eat nice meals, watch my all-time favorite DVDs. I might look for my all-time favorite book, Japanse edition of the "Treasure Island". Who knows, depending on the situation, maybe the Bible. :D I would try to get a hold of a SIG 9mm, M-16 and/or H&K assault rifles, like MP-5. Not to shoot at people, but I've always wanted them. I'd love to do little target shooting. If I can get my hands on couple of nice vehicles, a car & truck, I'd do that too. Preferably a Toyota Tacoma 4x4(for going to the mountains), and either a Lancer Evo or WRX STi. :)
