In 10 seconds of free fall the car would travel 490 meters or .3 miles, so yes, you could easily get a 10 out of it!
Lets get some goofy ricers to test out this law of physics. Anybody who drives one of those weedwackers jukeboxes, (the fast and delirious type), should be willing. I would gladly help push them off.
Hey... I'm sure it was uphill, around a corner, and a rolling start.
I agree... Car shows are the best place to get stories out of people. Heck, even the gas station. I was filling up my T/A earlier this year, and a guy in a Camry was at the pump next to me. He walks over and compliments my car. Immediately, he starts telling me all the cool cars he's had over the years, including an '89 Saleen Mustang (all stock) that would "smoke" my car.
Right after that, he notices I'm putting 93 octane in my car and tells me I'm wasting my money. Whatever, Dude. Get back in your Camry and leave me alone.
The best stories come from clueless guys with Mustangs. My old boss thought that his 04 Mach 1 had 450 horsepower from some intake and exhaust work. One of the guys I work with at my new job has a 93 Cobra. Same thing. He has 450 horsepower with some intake and exhaust work. What the heck is with these guys and having 450 horsepower? Is that some magic number? Why does everyone think a CAI gives them 35 horsepower? Yeesh!
Red 95 Trans Am: M6, Moroso CAI, Magnaflow, Spohn sway bars, back to life as of 2/15/10!!!
SOLD- Kinda miss it
94 Del Sol VTEC: 27 city/ 33 highway, knee deep in slowness
SOLD- Good riddance!
2006 Ford Fusion: 2.3, 5 speed, could run 15lbs of boost with a 150 shot and it'd still be slow
its soo funny to listen to mustang guys and find out how full of crap they are i hate it when they all talk crap about camaros but then they go to race one and loose they come up with some excuse
Thats the trouble with bench racing, you don't have to prove anything. Excuses are a dime a dozen. Ricers are even dumber. They think mud flaps and neon lights make their cars quicker.
Yeah, the guy was half in the bag, too. It was a beautiful fully restored old mopar. I mean it was perfect. Obviously he didnt have any hand in the work and simply bought it that way because he was totally clueless.
I know exactly what you mean. I've met so many guys like that at car shows and meets. You just wanna snatch the keys from their hand and take their car away from them. Their are so many people out there with boatloads of bankroll, but unfortunately money cannot buy brains....at least not yet.
