should i be worried?

well my friend has been talkin **** about my balt non stop since i got it. he always says how much better all 6 cylinders are then "my crappy 4 banger". he drives a 96 honda passport, and he says his car is faster then mine and he will beat me neday. so i told him that we were gunna race tomorrow. all i have is an exhaust but i think i can take him. i just ordered my injen cai today, should i wait till i put it on to race him or do u think i can take him with just the exhaust??? i dont wanna embarress us balt guys.

o and he claims that his car is 200 hp!!!

If my knowledge serves me correctlys, the Honda Passport is an SUV. Even if he has 200 hp, the extra wieght should slow him down. I'd say you will take him easily, but there is only one way to find out.

just have fun and go run it and if you lose then mod and try again thats about all you can really do. hell beat you off the line but in 2nd youll catch right back up. thats what happened when i raced my friend in a gmc jimmy v6 and he talked all this stuff b4 we went out. i was kinda nervus but i beat him so anything can happen.

did you get the sports package with your car so you can take it over 105 mph? jw cuz he may try and take you above that just to say he beat you. i have some dick friends who would pull that believe it or not.

nope, no sports package, were goin on a pretty decent sized side street that just got paved cuz they are gunna start building houses on it. there is no side streets or nething, its just a long stretch of new paved cement. i went on it a few days ago and got up to 80-85 and had to hit the breaks. so the race will prolly go to about the same speed as that so im not worried about that. plus his car is so beat up i dont think he will make it to 100 without blowing the engine.

I have a friend with a 96 Honda Passport too, he thinks he can beat anything with a 4 cylinder too. I don't think you have anything to worry about.

I cant imagine a "guy" driving a passport talking **** about anyone elses vehicle. What an idiot. I hope you romp on him, if you do say "Good lord, I guess I dont have the slowest car on the road......you do!"

Good luck!

That seems to be the trend for people who drive the 96 passport, a guy that goes to my school thinks he is badass when he drives it. He plays his music extremely loud and does burnouts in our school parking lot. He's a maniac behind the wheel also, he almost hit me when I was walking to my car one time.

Edit: I almost forgot, he is the same ******* that was trying to be cool and stuff and locked his keys in his car, while it was still running! HAHAHA that was so funny, he was just sitting there waiting for his mom to bring the spare keys.

i got outta class tonight at 8:30(im taking a summer class, and i left early cuz me and him were supposed to meet up and take care of his problem with my 4banger) but he said he couldnt make it and gave some bullshit excuse of how he had to drive his littler brother to practice and blah blah blah.

i told him tomorrow night he isnt getting away from me. im pissed i wanted to earn the cobalts some respect tonight!!!!!!

Let him jump the line, and take about 2 lengths on you..steady it so you're at 45, then do the 3-2 drop, and let him hear the SC scream as you go by...All this hinges on the fact you own a S/C of course....IF not, the NA SS shouldn't have any issues against it either

I'm pretty sure he has the 2.2. Check the sig B&M shift plus is for autos so either the 2.2 or the 2.4

has like 190 hp and weighs about 4,000 lbs. i wouldn't even waste your time. tell him when he gets a real car you'll race him. he probably does 17 or 18 second 1/4 miles.

this is what i found online:

EPA Economy, miles per gallon
city/highway/average 15/18/17
0-60 MPH 11.6 seconds
1/4 Mile (E.T.) 18.2 seconds @ 75.0 mph
Max towing capacity

next time he asks you to race, laugh and walk away. if you have his phone number, call him about 30 minutes after he leaves and ask him if he was able to get to 60 yet.


that would be funny as hell
