Default stupid jetta vr6

hey guys im new here, this is my first post so if i screw up tell me lol.. ok well this week i was driving home when 2 kids probly 16 or 17 stopped next to me at a light. One kid stuck his head out the window and asked if i wanted to try and keep up, well i got pissed off and told him he looses he gets my fist drilled into his face, he laughed and reved his gay sounding car.. so as soon as the light turned green i stomped on the gas and chirep for a good 100 feet. they were next to me for about 3rd gear then i juss started to see them in my mirror farther and farther away then a turn was ahead and they put there signal on and turned b4 i could get to bash him... but now i see them and they dont even look, even with his ugly little girlfriend nothing... by the way. i have a 99 dodge stratus 2.4L with a cai(if that counts) its the (DOHC)

First, you want to hit someone for challenging you? Real mature; then again you are probably around 16 or 17 so that kind of behavior is somewhat expected. In the future kid either come up with a witty retort or fast car that would be my suggestion.

Second, a pretty much stock Stratus beating a VR6 would never happen in a "real" race. The guy was either messing with you or he had to make a turn up ahead.

A VR6 will beat a Stratus even with a so-so driver. The R/T is a fairly good match depending on the year of both cars and driver experience, but a regular Stratus against a VR6 is a hands down victory for the VR6. Here is how they stack up stock:

1995 Dodge Stratus ES 9.4 17.0
2001 Dodge Stratus R/T 7.4 15.7
2002 Dodge Stratus R/T 8.7 16.7
2003 Dodge Stratus R/T 7.2 15.9

vs.

1995 Volkswagen GTI VR6 7.1 15.5
1996 Volkswagen GTI VR6 6.7 15.1

Here's the tread...idk if the video is still working. Either way I'll bet your Jetta is fast, but this one wasn't. I'm thinking my next car will probably be a R32 if there are any left by the time I'm looking for another car. I likes dem Volksvagens!
