Red face

it was a blazing 16.43 w/.245 reaction time

I only had a cone filter and and the exhaust system though, now I have many more mods and hopefully it is alittle faster.

I did beat the GP though, by over a half second...

that's cool. not to be dissing on your car or anything, just trying to prove a point. reason being one of my fag former friends thinks the reatta he used to own could pull 14 seconds stock. the looser couldn't even catch up with me on the highway. i was talking to my other friend (a common friend between me and the former reatta owner) and he said "ya he couldn't pass you but that's because once your car is moving it gets up quick. he would take you in the quarter mile."

LOL :rolleyes: um if i was in front the whole time it means ju lose.

ya anyway.

but the reatta is a unique car and looks pretty cool. it's got a 3800 so it means it has some potential. just please god don't leave it near stock. you should try doing a supercharged 3800 series II swap in that thing. a 240+ hp reatta would be cool. :D

I like the LN3 3800, but don't worry it is getting some internals very soon and will be as fast as a S1 SC Reatta

I think it ran a 16.9 and it was a 3100 with the 3400 upper end swap...

I was like wow you have alot done to it...

I had the exhaust and a cone filter and a Delco type II ignition and I beat him by a half second. now I have a chip and underdrive and some other tid bits so as soon as the valve springs and rockers go in, it should move pretty well.
