damn what do you have done to your car? The newer stangs run around a 14 flat, even if it was a fox bod thats still like mid to high 14's. The SRT-4 and WRX are also low 14 second cars. V-6 f-bods probably run low 15's unless it was a 3rd gen those v6's were garbage. You'd have have to be running low 14's to keep up/beat any of these cars unless some of these people don't know how to drive. Are you spraying?

Well it sounds to me some stories are being told becuase these is no way you beat a srt4 or turbo pt unless you have some mods that you have not posted because I got beat by at least car length and half against the turbo pt but maybe the people you ran into cant drive a stick or dont know how to launch or they just lost traction but the alero is like any other car it is slow stock but can be faster with some money spent.

I read your mods and I have one question, are your 18" rims Chrome or lightweight?

Let me get this straight reddog... with a cat-back exhaust, high-flow cat, 62MM TB, WAI, P&P intake, and some plug wires... you beat a 230HP Neon?
Those mods you listed are good for perhaps 20-25HP.
I think aleromod needs a "BULLpoop" smilie... :rolleyes:

ok let me just set the facts straight here. Aleros arent fast! they arent slow! i have met a couple alero owners who think their aleros could beat a bunnying ferrari or something. They are average cars! they maybe faster then some civics but they certainly arent really fast cars
Ok the end!

You really think thats 'bull' That's fine, but the I lived the Reality of that and that is the same time I almost lost my car to the cops (for street racing)
I didn't say that I crushed the Neon. I said I beat him. I actually won by about 1/4 car length, so it wasn't much, but a win is a win.
This was my last street race by the way, I got nailed for street racing that night but I was very very very lucky that I didn't get a ticket or lose my car. If you look at some of my other posts you'll see I said that Philly's "live Stop" program was extended to stop street racing. I got nailed in the beinging of the program, so I got a warning.
I would like to add that is the cops who let me go that night, I still very greatful.
Just remember this everybody:
1. race on the track, not street
2. Just because you don't believe something somebody said, doesn't mean it didn't happen.
The Mustang GT was a Convertible, the extra weight helped me.
I've said my peace. Now let's just drop it. OK

THAT ALERO IS SICK!!!111ONE YOU BEAT AN SRT-4! I'D WRITE YOU UP FOR STREET RACING IF YOUR CAR WASNT SOOO TOTALLY WICKED BADASS!!111 SHIZZLE!" :rolleyes:

20 mph?? the neon will smoke you to that no prob.. HAHAHA.. I had the opportunity to take one out.. i previously owned a sub 13 second Talon and this Neon would give that talon a run for its money.. hell the talon would jump on a launch @ 4500 rpm... used to scare the poop out of me.. the neon did a good job and puttin me in my seat for a stock car too....
Aleros are slow... hell any 3.4L V6 thats only puttin out 170 horses is SLOW.. haha like seriously... the avg for a V6 now is a solid 200hp ATLEAST... people got V6s 240 horses stock..

I am willing to put my money on the fact that the guy who created that site(if you can remember what this thread was about) owns a fairly fast car, hence he probably spends most of his time sitting at home on the internet because he can't afford to go to the movies.
It's his site and he's entitled to an opinion. If we don't like it, we should just stay away from the site. Plain and simple.
We have a site for our cars...he has one for his...the fact is they exsist, and no amount of arguing is going to solve this battle.

reddog---- perhaps you beat them cuz the other driver wasnt really racing you! Did u spefically say lets have a race, or did u just do it while driving and acted like it was a race. I also think the racing also has to do with the driver, along with the hp and the performance of the car, plus the torque power. Those people in the other car could have just been not wanting to race and backed down. The alero is slow, i do get my pick up and alll, but I wouldnt sit there and think about entering it in a race.
