You Beat a M3?? That M3 driver must have been a dummy at M/T

 

from a 45mph roll yes. from a dead stop, he smoked me. He had SMG

 

haha those M3s will definitely smoke you from a dig, I think think they have this launch control system which are very useful. But still, whoa, you beat him from a roll too? You must be a very good driver!

I love the Type-S! Those things are rockets! Go 3.5L!

 

lol damn skippy, rarely do you see a car who can spin tires through 1st, 2nd and 3rd...

 

FWD lack of traction???

 

This is very interesting...couple of days ago one I was passanger in one of my friends 2005 M3. To make a long story short we were cruising on Hwy 400 and caught up with this guy driving a 2007 TL-S. While we're passing this guy he gunned it, I am pretty sure he went WOT because my window was slightly open and could hear his engine. So my friend Mike did the same thing, we're doing around 60mph when everything started. He pulled in no time about 3 cars on TL and the gap was increasing really fast when he called it off at about 140mph.

 

Wins that I can recall

96' Mustang GT auto (track)
04-06' Scion TC 5speed supercharged (track)
03' Celica GT 5-speed modded
89' Integra

That's all I can remember right now.

 

There's a big difference between 5AT and 6MT, may be that's why? And theoretically, the M3 should still be faster than 6MT TL-S, but may be the guy got lucky that's why he pulled 1/2 a car.

 

you could barely make a civic si chirp 3rd, let alone smoke em, the TL-S has balls, not only for a FWD 4door, but for any V6.

 

Just test drove one today. Rolling along in first with the clutch out at 10mph, I could stomp it and it wouldn't break free. Sure, I got it to chirp second and third and I could launch it hard and smoke the tires but it flat out didn't have enough to break the tires free in first from a rolling start.

 

try turing off the VSA? i could stop mine in 2nd at 40mph and get them to spin up....stock tires, all i have done is the Underdrive pulley, and Test pipe....nothing major to make it differ from stock.

 

By any chance, was this a purple gsx?

 

no....Red...

I dont really race much, but have done few runs... no close race yet
I have a 03 TL-S (CAI, UR crank pulley, aftermarket mufflers..if those help, Buddy Club racing spec condensers)

Won:
99ish Eclipse GS Spyder
00ish Integra (couldnt tell which spec but prob not typeR)
06 Sion Tc
06 Eclipse GS
03 Accord

most of these cars were slightly modded

Lost:
06 RX-8 6MT
06 EvoIX.... not much of a race

 

You have a TL base with CAI and you beat a TL-S? I find that very hard to believe.

 

I raced a member here. We raced from a dig many times. He had around 1500mi on his car. He needed/needs to work on his launch.

At any rate I'm sure others will agree it's harder to believe your claim of beating an M3 SMG than myself beating a stock TL-S.

 

Dont even get me started bro. First of all we raced from a roll which I had him at 1/c a car. Remeber driver makes a big difference, even though he had SMG, I have a 6MT and Im very experianced when it comes to performance driving. Thats why you beat the TL-S, because he's not very well at driving a 6 speed. I wish I would of known you had a auto and he has a MT or I wouldnt of made that comment.

 

I thought I made it clear on my list it was a 07 TL-S 6MT , not 07 TL-S 5AT

I have tentative plans with another member who has a stock 07 TL-S 5AT for a photoshoot and some runs whenever he solidifies a date/time. Maybe you'd like to join us since he's trying to recruit other local TL-S owners for the shoot. I'd like to see how much I'd lose to an experienced 6MT driver.

 

yeah that guy DEFINATELY can't drive a 6MT....from driving a 05 TL 5AT, to my 07TL-S 6Spd....the tl-s is stupid fast. You have to feather the clutch off the line(around 2500-3k Rpm) and NOT floor it...with the VSA OFF, it'll spin a little and once it hooks up...floor it....as for 2nd gear...i dont mind laying down 30feet of posi rubber....

 

I wished more people would try to race me...

 

People respect the TL Type-S and they think you'll spank them, that's why. No joke the TL gets a lot of respect around where I'm from.

 

 

u can race me!

Its not that i dont remeber losing...Its just never happend...hahaha....speaking off....ran a new Charger R/T on the highway...(he picked the battle...not me) 65mph...3rd gear pull...left him....he catches back up....and its deja-vu....i could hear the roar of that beasty v8....too bad his gear ratios weren't meant for top end...hahaha...needless to say...he'd probably ass rape me in the 1/4mile.

 

lmao lets go at L
