Lennox Member 2,586 Member For: 12y 2m 6d Gender: Male Location: Perth Posted 03/12/13 08:56 AM Share Posted 03/12/13 08:56 AM Is it the engine that puts out 450hp but 250nm torque or something ghey like that? Prob needs to launch it at 4000rpm or something Definitely not a car for drag racing though.

He is saying that it feels gutless above 120 -130 km/h Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/86954-drag-race-ford-ba-xr6-turbo-vs-maserati/page/2/#findComment-1443679 Share on other sites More sharing options...

The reaction time was 0.5 sec slower than mine. And he started braking before he got to the finish line... Hopefully the next video will be a bit more interesting to watchRaband - he ended up racing few cars that night. I'm not surprised if he lost to a Gemini or camira Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/86954-drag-race-ford-ba-xr6-turbo-vs-maserati/page/2/#findComment-1443687 Share on other sites More sharing options...

matsfgxr6turbo Member 388 Member For: 15y 2m 27d Posted 05/12/13 01:10 PM Share Posted 05/12/13 01:10 PM 4lt turbo vs 4.2 na turbo is always gonna chop it.In racing a turbo engine is multiplied by 1.7 for capacity so 4 by 1.7 equals a 6.8lt any wonder he got chopped probably weighs the same as the falcon too Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/86954-drag-race-ford-ba-xr6-turbo-vs-maserati/page/2/#findComment-1444151 Share on other sites More sharing options...
