In the quarter mile I assume that a stock Beta swapped Accent will beat a stock Beta tib due to the weight difference. Is this true?

 

yea by atleast 3 cars.

there was a tiburon at the track v6, with intake and open exhaust running mid 16s. i was running low 15 high 14s.

granted im gutted and have headers and exhaust.

also raced a sonata v6 last night.. 80-120 i kept it in 5th and had have a car on him ...
i started in 4th the second time and after 2 cars he stoped and gave up

 

from start to finish i honestly think the sonata would have had you if all you have is a stock beta accent. sonata is heavy but it's got some guts.

 

Depends on what year V6 Sonata. They range from pig slow to pretty quick.

 

have to be 04+ to beat me and even thats pushing it.. you underestimate my 1900lb car .... no way a sock sonata gona beat me unless its brand new and i sill doubt it. if an 06 tibby v6 cant be me why would a sonata...

ive kept up with g8s on the freeway.

this things done 14.8 with 2.3 60' its an easy mid 14 car. and its got headers and 2.5" header back no cat. converted to manual steering, a/c p/s removed, heavily gutted. see my pics in several threads.

i mean i was in 5th and just feathured on it till wot and had him by half a car.. thats sad considering when he punch it he probably went into 3rd gear... when i left in 4th it was instint 2 cars.. im running accent tranny so i have quick gears too so it moves pretty nicely.


edit it was a ef model.. 98-04.. v6 thats what it was.

Wow you must have ripped everything out to get it that light. Mine weighs in at 2350lbs on the scales. I also have manual steering, no ac, and some other minor weight reduction.

 

With A/C, power steering, power everything, a full gas tank, and full interior my Accent tips the scales at 2400 lbs. +/- 10lbs.

The EF Sonata V6 is not a quick car. It's about as quick as an Automatic Elantra or Beta Tib.

The 249hp NF Sonata 3.3l is pretty damn quick though.

yours is also a lc which weight a hundred or 2 more.. i think last i checked curb weight for x3 is 2105lbs with about 200 lbs removed should mean im under 2k but ill have to weigh it in summer time ...

yes that models a different story but yea the one i raced was slow ... he didnt know what to expect from the pink monster tongue.gif he probably thought it was just another loud peice of sh*t ...

 

I have a 97 GT and that's the weight as raced with me in it.

 

so yea mines proabbly around 2200-2300 with me in it..

consumer guide list curb weight at 2101 and i took a couple 150-250 lbs out.. so yea ill weigh with me in it when the scrapper open again ill take some mics part there to scrap just to weigh it lol
