marc_w Posted November 5, 2003 Report Share Posted November 5, 2003 How quick are those little go carts? I had one put up a stink behind me, while getting on the highway today. It tried to get around me, and in front, before we ran up on traffic. Nope, I didn't let it happen, but I was surprised it had relatively long legs for such a tiny car.

GEAR M UP Posted November 5, 2003 Report Share Posted November 5, 2003 I ran against one that had twin turbo's. Thank god I was in my Vette, he almost got me.... If they are stock Miata's or one of those Hyundai Tiburon's...I eat them up and spit them out my tail pipe... I had a Tiburon take off infront of me and after 1/4 or so I was 7 car lengths past him.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigblue Posted January 13, 2004 Report Share Posted January 13, 2004 I remember reading about a company that specializes in stuffing in 5.0 ford motor, trans, and rear... Sounds like a serious combo minus the Ford stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plwtwo Posted February 4, 2004 Report Share Posted February 4, 2004 There are a couple guys around here running 5.0L Miatas. One has a 4.6L supercharged in it.......its FAST....His brother has a Fiero with a 5.0L in it and it's stupid, of the line it just melts tires. Once it gets into third gear watch out! I race him on my street bike all the time. But like you say, it's a Fiero. He can't go fast enough to get away from that fact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
