Got killed by Acura CL

[magindat]

At least that's what I'm sure he's posting on stupidricers.com!!!

Pain in the arse darting all over the place, lane changing, speeding up, slowing down. ARRGH!

So we come to a toll booth, I think great, he's stuck. I have a SUNPASS! Dammit, so does he. I slow to about 40 to go thru the booth. I guesstimate he flew from behind me and hit the booth about 50-55. I was in the far lane and needed the merge. SOB floored it and ran. I started 15-20 MPH and TWO car lengths behind. By the time the merge came he squeezed me out. My Front bumper was at his door.

Sure, ricer boy. You SQUEEZED BY a MARAUDER with a massive head start. It was NOT a KILL!!!

I feel better now, setting the record straight and all.

That happens to me all the time, usually by *********s in a stupid Mopar product. That's okay though, when I fly by them leaving a gear or so.

Reminds me of my acura tsx incident last week...

[Stranger in the Black Sedan]

The regular CL is slow. If he nosed by you that's not good. The TL Type S 02-03 Runs a 14.8 1/4 right out of the box. The CL Type S has the same engine and is lighter, so it will be even quicker than that. They are quick cars. A stock Marauder would get its butt handed to it by a TL-S or CL-S, stock for stock. I owned one. If the 02-03 TL-S didn't have massive transmission durability issues I would still own it.

speaking of butt handings, my buddy's 07 lexus is350 blew my stock marauder doors off at 1/8 mile dragstrip, 9's to my 10's. Need a S/C, but 7k to win my 20 back don't seem right.

Thats what I keep telling him:dunno:.....I think he should be ashamed of himself embarassing us like that:lol:.. I can see the Acura now:neener:

[Stranger in the Black Sedan]

The stock Marauder is what it is. The 4.6 DOHC sure doesn't feel like 300 hp with the amount of weight it has to pull around in this car.

[Marauderman]

Seems as many times you have been to Reinharths, he could have at least put in a S/C go ge'tem test unit as if nothing but a trial thing and you would have a try me now you SOB thingy...know what I mean--.....sorrry the AH seemed to think he had something--........sorry it reminds me -when wife and I wherer with you that nite out--dang--I meant to offer you the keys for some fun--or did I and don't remembewr--those darn sometimers..:lol:..anyway--You are fast---I tried along with DR to catch you --but you had a head start....remember- on I-4--oh well-- It was fun...

If you see him again, send um down to me, I need some more Rice with my beans.

Mine feels more like 400 Hp.

I've taken my friends '03 TL. And all I had was a CAI and mufflers. But I will admit the 3.2l V-Tec is pretty quick.

[Stranger in the Black Sedan]

Both the 3.2 TL and the 3.2 TL type S are V tec. The regular 3.2 is 225 hp, the 3.2 type s is 260 horsepower. They are worlds apart.

So after his 30+ mph head start, you 2 car lengths behind, you still caught up to his door.

I say that's not too shabby. :)

Exactly why I felt the need to set the record straight!

I know I need boost I got killed by an ss trailblazer last night . I dident know those things could move like that.:shake:

[Stranger in the Black Sedan]

We are living in the modern day horsepower wars. A lot of run of the mill 4 door cars are in the 14s and 15s now.

How are you expected to survive in that thing? Look at that...:shake:

395HP and 400 ft/lbs of TQ. And with a little tuning they will run great once you get rid of the torque management in them.

I have seen SS Trailblazers run low 13's at the track, fully stock. Impressive vehicle out of the box.

I agree. I have driven my buddys moms (yeah, you read it right, 60th birthday present to herself) Trailblazer SS, and it is very impressive.

My buddy works for the GM dealer where I bought my car and he let me take one out for a few hours. Yea, those bad boys move. It will lose to an SRT-8 Cherokee though. Ford needs to bring back the Saleen XP8.
