Could it be certain point in which Horsepower is achieved?
Or a certain 1/4 mile time? How about destroying a certain % of cars on the road? A personal goal? When you think of your car being fast what defines that? |

Personally I look at how quick a car can be fast. *accelerate*
My car can do 120ish and a turbo'd ST can do 120ish......but he can get there A LOT faster then I can. I'd say when I can feel myself being pressed into the seat under heavy acceleration, that car is fast to me. Now my friend that is a girl's 91 Toyota Pickup 3.0L 5-speed.....can be defined as slow. When you press the gas in first gear and you have to wait for it to get going.....that's slow! But she says she doesn't need or want anything else so it's fine for her. So I guess basiclly what I'm getting at is that it's up to each individual person to decide what is fast or not on the street. Go to the drag strip and there a computer's that do it for you. |
