I did a little reading, The 3g has at least 222 hp. or 218 if its 97+. Thats a slight bit more than the 7mge. But i rode in a 95 3g, an auto, And there was no way it would beat any supra. It was slow as hell. Im not sure about the manual one thou. Just race him, and if you lose, spend a little money and race him again. If you have a radar detector, If he starts winning, slam on your brakes and turn/get in the right lane (whatever) and he will probably do the same. tell him you got some radar

from what i have heard the manuals run about a second faster in the 1/4 cuz the gears are too long in the automatics. the manual 3000gt's 3rd gear tops at a little over 100mph from what he said.

I don't have a radar detector

I think the race will be in a couple hours ill try to post the results

... yea ... better to back down at this stage cos he's so scared of being beaten. Define humiliation ... ?

It's 30 bloody $'s. From a few posts up, you can't get into the quater mile track for $30. And then there's fuel to get there and back. Dude he's actually getting a bargain here. With that post you must never drag. Not worth the ordeal of maybe losing a race. Damn who don't race unless they know they'll win - the only thing worth defeating is the thing that can defeat you, fuck the rest. Don't be impolite and refuse to race tho ...

So I bought this old Honda bike, an NSR250. Bit of a street racer, I guess. I'm told they're fast.

Delivering it home with a friend driving the Supra for the first time. I drop gears and make a scream from the twin pipes flowing down this pony's flanks and it takes off like it's tail's on fire.

I look back when the Honda gets to its tap-out and the Supra's only two lengths behind. No one I've let ride my bike has told me its slow, they've all loved the thing. That car is a good thing indeed.

Yeah i say just race him and fuck it. Better to lose than to not race at all. I dont mind losing. If you lose, your car probably cost a lot less and is a lot older anyway. lol.
