    from what ive read, i heard thats the stock 08 m/t time.
    i think the cvt is like 9.2 or sumthin like that
    then for 09gts stick i heard form 7.2 to 7.7,and for cvt 7.8 to 8.5
    these freakin review guys need to make up thier mind!!!!! ahh
    i say, if you want a real time, grab a buddy and a stopwatch.

    But if the buddy is in the car it will slow you down, becuase of the extra weight :!:

    lol not really practical cuz maybe the connection might be slow and there might be a delay time with u saying it and him hearing it.. just a thought but still good idea... lol

    This car now i actually did lose but i dont care i mean cmon its a RX8 lol Japans Street Muscle! But to be honest i thought at first i had a chance cause i pulled on him by a half a car length but once his engine hits the 6k-9k Redline mark his car just flys! by the time i was in 3rd he was still in 2nd pushin up to 9k!

    I wish we had 9k! lol!

    Ive beaten all these cars with such ease! in my 09 At least not sure the same for the 08's

    You should try your car against a another standard, maybe mine with my 16" back on. Should be fun even thought I should lose.
    Was it modded? Ive driven one of these and it sucked, or maybe they offered different engines for it?


    edit* or maybe it was becuase I was young and didnt really know how to drive the thing

    nice memory! but its true.. u can get a lot more our of the 09's than the 08's.. im still so mad that they changed the engine size after only one year!.. like wtf? but nice track record i must say.. the grand prix is impressive.. pontiac knows how to make some fast cars...

    O by the way are you talking about the 3 wheeler, or a nissan 200sx, the 3 wheeler I drove was old as hell and I think it was a 200 could be wrong, I did drive a 200sx as well though, I test drove a 97 about 2 years ago, it was a 1.6 I think and I had two other pretty hefty guys in the car, I didnt really like it too much.

    Ok to update on my post on the cars ive taken.....GUESS WHAT! lol my friend who drives the 2004 (HE TOLD ME THE YR) 6 spd Mazda RX-8 i beat him! He was in second and rolling around 20? and i was in third rolling in 20(?) and i took his ass! i was so impressed that my car 09 gts STOCK kicked his ass! WOOT!

    His Reactions and words were this

    "I have a new respect for the Lancers"

    :D that made me very happy that something like a mazda rx8 can be taken by a 09 lancer!

    My Front Wheel Drive < His Rear Wheel Drive!

    200 is alot older than a 240sx.....but these cars are really not meant to be raced in but more and more use them to drift! so they are totally not useless i guess :p

    The 200sx that I drove was made from 95-98.
    Congrats on the Mazda man, me and a buddy test drove one of those too, but we didnt seem to catch good traction lol. Guess the tires were really bad. Tell you what though, sure did feel like yanking the e-brake just to see if I could drift :mrgreen:, but didnt since I was not on a private rd, and plus not even my car lol. Car does look sexy though.
