well i challenged a friend of mine (a 16 y/o chick who is damn hot i might add) to a race against her parents car... the car? a mercedes C240 V6 SOHC 0-60 in 8.7 secs... well she has never been in a drag race b4 and shes drivin an auto like me so im pretty sure shell have no idea how to start... anyway.. a bunch of my friends are sayin shes na excellent driver so i decidede to put her to the test just for fun... its a drag... honestly speaking i think i will win... with no prior race experience and a heavier car with a worse 0-60 i dont think she can rely on driving skill alone... its gonna be a stoplight-to-stoplight... not quite sure where yet so the length is still unknown... any idas on who will win?

 

comon i know someone has a basic idea of who will take home the win...

 

She will probably take you on top end... Just make it a short race... [sm=gears.gif]

 

I doubt your 0-60 time is less then 8.7 with an auto. Now if you had a manual I would buy it. I say she'll probably win unless she gets treed.

 

ACTUALLY, i timed it its around 8.3 from a dead stop...

 

I would say her, but let us know when you race her.

 

well im still waiting on a respons from her... but ill let you guys know the results o and btw another friend of mine (a guy this time) is gonna race me in his 4.0L Jeep Cherokee (cant remember the year but its older) same thing applies for him... plus.. no offense to anyone here but the 4.0L is a dodge 4.0L so its not that great but with more power he has a chance... tho his torque and weight are HORRID i still would like to see the oucome just for the helluvit

 

I had an 86 cherokee 4.0L, its a great motor, I ran it up to 250,000 miles and never replaced a thing cept an alternator and a battery. Mine was pretty quick.

 

um..what's a dodge 4.0? If you mean the 91-up with the chrysler feul injection I wouldn't say the torque and wieght really sucks. 225 or 235ft-lbs (not sure) and my 91 wieghs under 3500lbs. That being said my neon will clobber it in a drag.

 

I agree, I was just saying that its a strong motor.
