mazda speed 6 vs. ss t/c
today i was driving on the high way and say a car with really nice head lights and thought to slow down and it came to ba a nice whit mazda speed six he had a bov but idk what else. any ways from like a 50 roll (i love rolling from a 50) on three honks we ran and i ended up winning all three times by like a car and a half it prolly would of been more car lengths if we kept goin but it was pretty quick. what you guys think about those cars is it a good kill or not

Good Kill.
There's a guy I see a few times a week coming home from work and sometimes heading into work. We used to run when we both had different cars. Anyway, when I was stock and he was stock, here's how it went down. You'd have a much better race from a dig if he can drive.
From a dig it was really damn close until about 50 or 60. Basically 3rd gear and up I would pull. It got worse for him the higher the speeds. So he wouldn't have caught you later on. We did some roll races too but the SS/TC was just too much.

Yeah, they are strongest at low speeds, they are heavy and not super powerful if not heavily modded. I've gotten out-launched pretty badly by one, I wasn't paying attention and he came out of the hole like a damn Evo, but I had caught and passed him by the middle of 2nd gear. He was lightly modded, close to stock.
There were two down here (I believe there were only a few in the country) with bigger turbos on them, one blew the stock block, the other broke a couple axles and transmissions, and from what I heard neither ever broke 400hp.

im not surprised by the outcome at all to be honest...i just got rid of my 07 speed 6...the difference is night and day between these 2 cars...the speed 6 is a monster from dig races, i was able to cut 1.79 60 fts on street tires, but the power up top is mediocre at best and its a horrible car to run in a roll race (~40ish bc ur at the top of 2nd with no more turbo efficiency left and esp horrible around 50 mph bc ur caught low in 3rd gear with no immediate power..not to mention the 6 weighs in around 3700ish lbs with a driver) The SS is a beast from roll races bc of the better gearing and its low weight...nice kill!
