I tend to fear the older crappier looking cars more than the newer ones.......older cars are cheaper to fix up, and therefore can be faster......unless the person with a newer car has a good cash flow, he/she may not have any money after their car payments to actually do much engine work!
Turbos in general scare me......if I hear a turbo spooling up at the light, or a BOV, I don't usually count on winning, but ironically, every turbo car I've raced I've beaten.
One was an older eagle talon probably with stock turbo, BOV, and exhaust.......so my newer car probably just had the advantage of better tuning.
I've seen a turbo teg and turbo civic SI both running crappier times on the 1/4 mile than me, but that's likely due to the fact that their car isn't tuned right and they don't know how to drive a turbo charged car.
As far as sleepers go, there's nothing better than racing a GSR and beating him, then seeing the look on their face when I tell them mine is a "crappy" non-vtec LS engine!!!
