Was hanging out with some friends last night when a kid came in a pretty new tiburon. Everyone was running thier mouth and talking about how it will beat me so I was ok lets go I guess.

Tiburon: Cold air intake, catback

Formula: Lb9 with Edelbrock catback, Cold air intake, underdrive pullies, and some msd tune up stuff.

We raced from a stop twice. The first time I jumped out and had about a car and half on him the entire race. The second time I had him by a half a car the entire race and I was slowly pulling towards the end. I spun both time pretty bad out of the hole, but I figure he did too with that 6 speed. I was suprised to be pulling slowly past 80mph with tpi. Does this sound about right, it kinda upset me being so close?

 

*Jaw's theme music*

 

Those Tib's are pathetic, I used to work for Hyundai as a assistant parts manager for 2 years. I used to race against them in my car with the techs just for giggles during lunch. I would slaughter those damn things. The only car hyundai has that would give you a good run is an azera. they're heavy but damn they can move.

 

So what is up then, is this right?

 

yeah it sounds about right. Good kill

 

Well to add to injury I have pretty bad tires so I spin pretty bad off of the line so with traction this should not be as good of a race I assume.

 

nope with better traction it would have been worse.

 

If the Hyundai Genesis becomes reality, the rear wheeled drive V6 turboed version along with V8 option will be enough to wipe the floor with most of you guys.

 

I can see that happening..........as long as their transmissions can take the abuse. You don't know how many trannies I sold at Hyundai. Evevn the weak a$$ accent trannies would implode after 60,000 miles.

 

so whats going to happen when the fifth gen comes out?
