Subject: toasted volkswagon beetle IP: Logged
Message: ok i was driving about at night minding my own bussiness when out of no where this crappy beetle flies by me...so we were next to each other at the next light, I took off and he couldn't catch me....then he tried again in a much less wide area of the road and took me by surprise because i didnt expect him to try on a small street and i didnt try to catch him....then at the next light i was behind him and i went around and passed him.
but anyway i was looking at the specs on the car and it looks to me like he should have been able to take me. 0-60 on that car is 10.2 seconds and it weighs so much less (2800 with like 150 lb driver vs. 4100 lbs with 236 lb driver and 190 lb passenger) the best 0-60 I ever got was like 11.5 or so(which is worse then even the 95 hp bug(11.2)) but I think this one was the 115 hp so I think he should have been able to take me. I dunno. At least the V6 can beat something lol..

Message: sounds almost right. btw i tested the 0-60 again today and it came out to ~10 seconds which is my personal best. that whole holding the brake w/ the corner of your foot seemed to work well. clock was actually still on 9 but i think i hit the button late.
sure its not more then .1 especially in a V6

Message: Careful with the newer bugs. There was one at the track last friday (factory turbo model) with only minor mods (cold air, exhaust, and no cat) running 14.7's @ 90-91mph. Not bad for a bug.
1997 Dodge Dakota SLT - V6 Supercharged/Intercooled @ 10# w/Nitrous 14.65 @ 95.01mph
