really? you dont even think it will be close. i know they both have similar numbers when it comes to hp and weight, with the tiburon having a slight advantage in both. but i kill that car when it comes to torque.

Re: L03 VS. 06 Tiburon

I think it would be pretty close as the Tiburon is a mid to high 15 second car in stock trim. Maybe mid/low 15s with a good driver but being a front driver it will be trickier to launch.

Just run him and let us know what happens.
