What could go faster:

My 2003 BMW X-5

or my friends

2003 Jeep Cherokee.

I don't know which could go faster, and he said both were pretty equal, and I think my car could go faster than his?

BMW: Top speed 143 MPH

Jeep: 108 MPH

Looks like you win, but you shouldn't be racing SUV's anyway ;)

What size engine does he have in the Jeep? I'm sure you could smear his Jeep (if it has the |6), but then he could tow you home :D.

He's got a v6. I don't think his v6 could tow mine home.

I wouldn't race a car...only snowmobiles.

You sure it's a v6? The straight 6 is much more powerful and would smear your car any day if you're talking torque, off the line speed though is another story...

Either way racing off track is a bit idiotic in the least...

Is your BMW a V8?

If so then you'd probably beat him. If you have the I6 then you might lose.

Well you dont have a BMW X-5.

Other threads here state that you are 14 years old.

Matt...His sponsor probably bought him the X5. Let's give him credit, he could be 15 by now possibly ;)

Well, according to this post (http://www.webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?s=&postid=1135013#post1135013) he's 14, or possibly 15 by now.

At least, one of the statements is incorrect.

Rather than ask peoples opinions of which car is faster.... Why not take your BMW to school and race your friends Cherokee around the playground?

Why would one say he is younger than he really is?

Because, they don't understand that I'm not the only one who posts on this account. My brother and I use it, just for the heck of it. He's got his own account here. This was his original account. You don't have to belive me, I could care less.

UH-Matt,
we don't have a playground at ArrowHead HighSchool. Sorry :bawling:

One account. This was originaly his, but he didn't want the name anymore. It was originaly "frosted" so, he registered a new one, and I asked SoftWareRevue, or someone else if I could get it changed to this. He don't come around very much, if he does, he reads the section above this.

You and your brother apparently share WHT accounts, but not computers (http://www.webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?s=&postid=1648120#post1648120) ?

1st thing, Jeep did not put a V-6 engine in a Cherokee since.....1986.

2nd The I-6 has a good amount of power (torque), and could blow away most others on the school playgound.

3rd: cool to have such a nice car at ???? years old. You pay for it and the insurance? or is it covered by???

4th "My car is faster than your car" is funny, and usually outgrown by the time you reach Puberty or mid 20's.

Cars/vehicles are fun. Enjoy what you have. and try not to make it a contest. Usually those that try to have the "fastest" have a small.... engine. :)

Apparently he works weekends (http://www.webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?s=&postid=1575611#post1575611) glenn

The charger (http://www.webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?s=&postid=1640415#post1640415) that he was supposely getting would've had more power than his X5. ;)

We all know chargers don't handle well out of the box, but that's okay, he's admitted that he's not a car fan (http://www.webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?s=&postid=1350140#post1350140)

16. I've got a couple months left to go. I'm not gonna lie about my age... but then again, I'm not a host, so I couldn't care less if people know my age. I design stuff, no need to be an adult for that.

I thought that (2nd), but wasn't sure as I'm no where near a jeep expert...

Rather pointless. On a straight track it wouldn't be really that big of a deal, but they would get smoked if they did something like autox. Probably end up flipping...

Hey you know what.

You should have an offroad race.

I mean, they are trucks and that's what they were meant to do.

Lesson learned. If you are going to lie and be someone you aren't on WHT, watch yourself and don't slip. Someone will catchn you.

He still hasn't admitted to it, or apologized, so I don't see him living in shame quite yet. :)

Hey guys, I just went from Milwaukee to Dallas last week and on the way I picked up a lottery ticket in each state - I just learned I won the grand prize in every state. What should I do with my 400 million dollars I won from Wisconsin, Illinois, Kansas, Arkansas, Oklahoma and Texas? I'm only 7, so I'm thinking about building up my collection of Pokemon and GI Joes - but I'm not sure. Help!

You can start by posting your bank SWIFT codes as well as account and routing numbers :)

Don't worry about those big withdrawls either, they are just tests
