i think my wife bought a freak car. 99 m6 ws6. she bought the car at a stealership, it had 40k miles on it at the time. it was all stock except for some jank sportlines and a flowmaster weld in muffler. the previous owner removed the subs that go by the backseats and blew all but one speaker in the back, managed to fuck up the head unit, and someone gouged the sail panel (bad) when the hatch was open. this car was far from taken care of. it needed new tie rod ends @ 60k miles thanks to the awesome heated lowering springs and weak alignment job.
we put a lid and short-throw on it and she went 14.1 @ 111 on her 3rd pass in the car. eventually got it down to 13.4 @ 109 (1.96 60' but spun bad midway through 2nd..). it would run door to door with my 110 trap bolt on car on the highway and starting inching me at 120+. i managed to go 8.3 @ 87 with it 2 years and 40k miles after she bought it, but it developed a misfire on my best pass and ran the 1/4 out to 13.2 @ 104. i have since then tuned it up, added an ory and removed the air/egr, i am anxious to get it back to the track.
i'd call that a freak. bear in mind this was central indiana summer racing, da ~2500', literally full weight +her shit. we put like 500 miles on it last year haha. it is currently serving daily duties as the baby toter is down and i'm very lazy. |
