Re: Just to prove I dont always win.

not a bad loss at all.

a guy on here once said
one slightly slow movement, one slip of the tires and you've turned your 14 second car into a 15 second car.

they are 2 cars within .2-3 seconds of eachother in a race to 1320 ft
by the time you say go .3 seconds have gone by...think about that guys

Re: Just to prove I dont always win.

400 hp is not a big deal. Its the 440 foot pouds of torque that get me sliding all over the place. At the track its different cause I can burn off all the pebles and shit that get stuck and run clean rubber on the track floor.
On every day street tarmac its harder to hook up and even worst when your tires have gravel and dirt on them and you cant burn em for fear of attracting too much attention.

Tires dont make you faster but they do get you going sooner. I spend time spinning when they where new, imagine now that they are all wasted out with barely and thread left.
