Fastest Protege5?
 
I was wondering who has the fastest MP5 on this board. It seems like there are a few turbo MP5s and stuff and i was wondering what kind 1/4 miles you guys can do. Anyone know our cars 1/4 stock? Thanks!

goto the motorsports section for more accurate times. The above times are from my car. I run around 85 lbs of boost and have a 250 shot of N2O. Its pretty fast.

I don't like the fact that you know that:eek:

LOL, 2 secs that is something, tho it's nothing to do with the P5, however, i would say the famas is faster then the MP5

they did...you see...somehting that you are not aware of is that the MP5 is an automatic rifle...NOT a car....our cars designator is the P-5....not MP5....its a common thing....and SOME people like to play on that. :{D



but to those of you PLAYING with the MP5.....that is only a tinkertoy....it may be fine to carry...but put me behind the console of a Phalynx Cannon system ANYDAY....20 mm....6 barrels....3000 Rounds Per Minute...twin belt fed...radar controled....if you have ever seen one of these babies in real action ( I have btw) it will have you in total awe.

:{D

Dude, i know an MP5 is a gun but THIS IS A DAMN MAZDA PROTEGE BOARD MY FRIENDS@!
MP5 = MAZDA PROTEGE 5@!!#$
Now friggin answer the question!#@#
;)

Arghman October-23rd-2002 01:45 AM

I didn't say anything about the MP3 :P
You can't argue that MP5 can stand for Mazda Protege5....anyways.

CAN ANYONE TELL ME WHAT THE FASTEST P5 IS? It seems like there are quite a few turbo ones around.
Also, how fast can a stock p5 do a 1/4 mile?

CaptainKRM October-23rd-2002 02:03 AM

Mine is fairly fast :) probably not the fastest, but what does it really matter?

Arghman October-23rd-2002 02:08 AM

Thanks for a decent answer CaptainKRM....it matters because i was just wondering what our cars are capable of. It's kinda funny how now one on our board gives a crap about 1/4 miles and stuff but if you go on civic forums and stuff that's what they are all about and we have just about the same HP and stuff :P

Tecjo October-23rd-2002 06:28 AM

Mine sure ai'nt the fastest... still stock. But it sure beats out the competition in the looks department!

I love it when people compliment me on it or when chicks turn their heads in my p5's direction with a longing look in their eyes. My wife is quite amused when the later happens.

Whats the big damn deal with people wiggin out over the MP5 thing? The way I see it, I spent $18k on that car and I call it whatever the hell I want to. If ya know what he means by MP5, then just answer the damn question. I mean, at least its a logical shortened name that doesn't infringe on any other model's name... like if I were to start calling it an M5 or something. :D

RODSCALIP5 October-23rd-2002 09:07 AM

16.5 in 1/4 mile according to the Apexi Speed/Rev meter. Thats still sloooooooowwwwwww, My Zx2 s/r stock tuns 15.7.

noodles October-23rd-2002 09:28 AM

HAHAHAH this thread made me laugh, thanks guys. :D

If that kind of power still seems tame, you can try the Y2K Superbike, which is made by a Louisiana company called Marine Turbine Technologies (marineturbine.com /superbike). The bike, which weighs 500 pounds, is powered by a Rolls-Royce Allison gas turbine. It is said to be street-legal by its makers, who say its top speed is 250 miles an hour and can go from 0 to 227 m.p.h. in 15 seconds. The price is $185,000.
