Who would win?

So im at a local street racing place. So i end up leaving it when i fall in traffic along a mustang, 240sx and a civic Si. So the Si is trying to race me. Im driving 40mph not paying attention to him. They are all revving their cars, and going two feet because we are traffic. The Si guy horns me to race me, Im not looking at him. Finally I give him a look and give a friendly laugh and I keep driving. Then all of a sudden he is trying to cut me off.

I am like wtf. If I ram him, I will destroy his car. Nothing will happen to my SUV, I have the SUV made for offroading. THen few seconds goes to my right side and yell "F_U". Im like hell no, and I am rev and we start going. But we get blocked off by traffic and im like w/e and I just drive away

Who would have won the race?

My car is a 3.5L engine with 240hp and 265lb ft of Torque

His car, 2.0L engine K20 motor, Civic Si Sedan.

I know I am in a pathfinder but we were at a 40mph roll, so my torque would kick in a lot faster at that speed, so their won't be a problem of him accelerating faster on me from the dig because his car weighs a lot less. Also my car is RWD and his fwd so he will losing a lot of traction



I was so ready to burn him. I mean I myself am a civic guy but come on, this is why we all get a bad name.

You would have gotten destroyed. Your pathfinder weighs considerably more, the gearing sucks... all around you just would have gotten wrecked.

Yea i was thinking the same, but you would be surprise to see the acceleration a pathfinder. my 40mph to 80mph is not that slow. But yea the weght issue is a problem for me. But lol come on who gets mad a someone in a SUV for not racing a car that is meant for racing purpose.

i can tell u that is stright up BS. Shoot if i see a SUV why would I want to waste my gas on something that weights almost 3times my car and i alraedy know i can bet him so whats the point. He must have had a hard on to race a SUV seeing he was probally racing and lost so he thought of some way to win i got it a SUV. This is what i call a total douche bag.

civic shifts to second at 40mph, game over for you

but yeah I don't know what his problem is. If he wants to wreck his civic that's his problem.

haha the guy in the civic must really fail....... trying to race a pathfinder.
A friend of mine has a thing that will set off radar detectors, when ever a car tries to race him, he revs up, lets them go and then sets the radar off.

No wonder you're so worried about "the man treading on your rights."  You're out ****ing street racing!

Good luck in Prison

That guy is why civic owners have bad names.  Who would race an SUV?  that is so stupid.    I have never raced anyone and really don't intend to.  Everybody tries to race me because of what my civic looks li ke.
