specslayer (8/19/2008)dodge stealth/3000 gt... same thing!!!

it's the same engine uner the hood

woa woa woa for he ppl who dontknow much about cars, let me put it in fishing terms...thats like comparing a van stall to a zebco
i'm just comparing the body styles and original engines.... not anything twin t'd or like a 3000gt spyder (all wheel steering, i think?)... i'm just saying that his stealth is no different from a stock 3000gt.


well yes the bodies do look similiar and the stealths engine is similiar to a normal 3000gts...but no stealth is near as fast as a 3000gt vr4...vr4 stands for vicious realtime four which means it is four wheel drive also on a vr4 the rear spoiler changes pitch after 60mph and also has a type of spoiler on the bottom of the front of the car so that air does not go under it. but overall a stealth is similiar to a 3000gt in looks and some what in performance but the only similarity it has with a vr4 is that it looks a little like it.

Disclaimer: I was young(er), stupid(er), had finished free-fall school, was in pilot training,and was loving life on my bike. I will tell anyone right now that this is extremely stupid and should only be attempted by a trained professional and on a track built for it, regardless of "experience" or "training".:banghead

That being said, here's my "fastest I've ever been" story:

Took a trip down to Brownsville, TX on my motorcycle ('03 Ninja ZX6R) on the way down from Corpus Christi when I crested a hill overlooking a long, long, long straight stretch of Texas highway. There was not a single car between me and the horizon. My buddy and I (he was on a Harley Roadster) looked at each other and were both thinking the same thing. Kicked it down into 4th and rolled up onto the throttle. Hit the limiter on 5th passing around 135 or so. Hit it into 6th and I stopped looking down at the digital speedometer on my bike passing 164 mph and was still laying hard on the throttle. I was pretty much aeordynamically limited at the top end and was tucked as low behind the screen as I could go. I wasso focused on the road that I didn't even look down at the speedometer. When I'd had enough, I let off of the throttle, looked down DECELERATING through 185 mph.

So now that you've heard the story, don't be like me <--:doh:looser

That ticket cost me a lot.

Driver's license, the car for 6 months and a few bucks to boot.

The hood damage only cost the price of a rubber mallet and a little bit of explaining.

I had my Acura Integra speedo pegged (that's about 140-145mph) on I-20 in Shreveport, LA. Yeah I know it's a 4 banger, but I had some "stuff" done to it. Ah to be young and dumb.

185 on a ninja is a pretty good feat...im guessing the bike had some mods on it.
