Excuses, in order of races:
1) I could not hear the Evo honk, his car is SUPER loud...he got a massive jump on me, and I never recovered
2) I went from 2nd to 5th gear, didn't even realize it at first
3) By far our best run. Went from about 40mph to 125 or so
4) Another good run, but cut short by traffic up in front of us. Since I haven't seen the video, I'm not sure if you see it or not. After racing, the guy (Charles?) said he was surprised he won by so much the last race. But I hit the brakes way sooner than he did. I let out around 90mph I believe.
There was TONS of traffic out, and it was super hard to line up the races. I believe the Evo edges me out, though....it's a very fast car. Certainly not 3 car lengths faster, though.

The highway was packed At Firstt I give you that....But The run I seen There was nothing in front...He had you by atleast 2 cars and pulling...I'm Not tring to bash or anything...Just Telling you what I seen... :goodjob:...His car is quick so don't think i'm saying a Zo6 is slow or anything...:D ...
Oh and I was the only 240sx that was riding with everyone just so you know who I am...Not that it matters but Just to make it clear I was there..lol...Its all for fun anyways Just another reason to buy upgrades...lol :D ....

Anybody who was out there, we never had a good run going north bound. The guy in the 240SX saying "I saw him get two cars ahead and keep pulling".....yeah, that did happen. That was our first race, and I never heard him honk. So he got a gigantic jump on me. Anytime we both took off at the same time, it was pretty close to even. Even Charles agreed. Our good runs were coming southbound, and the only car that was with us was the STI.
The reason he wasn't faster, was he was at lower boost that night....he told me that after we raced. I'm not trying to make excuses, or be a sore loser....but I screwed up the first two runs. There was actually only one REALLY good run...and we were about even during that one. Had we more room and kept going, I don't know what would have happened. I "felt" like his car edged me out a bit, and may have slowly pulled ahead of me. But mine is a monster in 4th gear, so who knows.
Either way, Charles didn't kick my ass........but I admit that his car was probably a tad bit faster than mine, that night. And if he was at full boost, he woulda killed me.

03CobraAV8R
04-08-2006, 06:31 PM
I was the passenger in the C6 Z06 and the races against the Evo were drivers races.
The first race, the Evo got a HUGE jump - we could not hear the honks. You all should know how big of an advantage a jump is in high horsepower cars.
On the cleanest run 40-130, the race was absolutely dead even, it was a drivers race.
The two cars are dead even given a clean run and good driving by both drivers - with the Evo being at the power level he was last night. On higher boost, the Evo is certainly faster.
Hopefully the Evo will post up the video of the 40-130 run.
It was kind of lame that the Evo wouldn't run the Supra; regardless of the Evo's boost level, it would have still been walked.
We (my friends and I) don't care if we lose, we just like the facts and conditions of the the race to be known.

BTW, if that's the same Blake that I knew years ago... then its his dad's Supra. Did he used to have a riced out black s2000 and always bring his dad's Supra to Starbucks back... maybe 4 years ago? I remember when the Supra folks (back when Alan actually drove his, har har) always chilled at Starbucks, they'd make fun of him for bringing out his dad's car all the time.
Also... what's with his girlfriend talking shit? What's she drive?

Also... we did set the conditions for the race beforehand in the parking lot... 55mph is what you all requested upto 120 - 130ish... what kinda sucks is you all never went 55mph... always kept trying to slow down to 40mph or less for our runs...

What is with you man?? There was TONS of traffic out, it was like rush hour. We had an extremely hard time lining the races up. We shoulda just waited until later that night, or gone to a different spot You also said, before the race "I won't race if there is traffic behind us" We held up traffic behind us, pretty much every race. I wasn't purposely trying to go from 40, I was trying to match the speed you were at. Of the 4 runs we did, only one was below 50mph from the start, I believe. You seemed pretty cool last night (even though you were hiding your performance numbers), but now you get on the internet and start acting like a jackass. You even agreed with me last night, that when we finally got a good run, we were pretty even. Now you're all bragging about "pulling" me at low boost.

What gives?
Everytime there was traffic behind us, I turned on my blinker and switched to an appropriate lane to let them pass... several times. The times that we did actually run, there was no traffic at all... and definitely not any traffic to cause you to stop prematurely.
Only two of the runs were started at around 55mph.. there were several times that I tried to line up with you on the way back and you wouldn't pull up next to me so I kept having to slow down to match your speeds...
I did agree that on the one run where I started in 2nd, it was a very fun and close run. You kept telling me that we were even in all our runs and that I *maybe* pulled a fender on you. I never disagreed or agreed since I had it on video. Again, I let the video do the talking.
I am cool and I thought you were too... but now you think I've become a jackass online? If I was a jackass, I'd have gone home, brought out dad's Supra, then talked shit, then antagonize for more races, then decline racing at a race track and make excuses, then get my girlfriend to talk shit, then talk shit more, then leave... its a good thing I'm not a jackass though.

I see now. I was NOT trying to line up races with you. There were cars behind us, and I did NOT want to race. I was trying to slow down so you'd get in front of me. And, yes, there was traffic in front of us EVERY SINGLE RACE. You don't have to fly up on someone's ass at 130mph and slam the brakes on. I'd rather keep my car unwrecked and not kill myself or anyone else, than get an extra half car in a damn street race.
I have no idea what you are talking about with daddy's Supra, either. Blake has his own Supra....and if his girlfriend was talking shit, that has nothing to do with me. I didn't tell them to go do that. Sorry if she was, I certainly don't condone that....but don't tie that to me, in any way.
There are better times and places to race, and this was not a very good one. Out of 4 times we lined up, there was only 1 good run. You told me last night you would not post the first 2 runs, because I didn't hear your honks in the first, and I went from 2nd to 5th in the second. Yet you've got our second race on your post. Also, about our 4th race...I told you I let out around 90mph. Watch the video, you see me fall back right after I wind out 2nd gear....which goes to about 93mph. You ARE being a jackass, because you know you didn't beat me by 3 cars....yet you don't straighten out the facts when idiots like Crafty say that's what happened. And I NEVER said we were even every race....I said when we finally got lined up and got a good run in, it was pretty close....and you may have edged me out by less than half a car.

There are better times and places to race, and this was not a very good one. Out of 4 times we lined up, there was only 1 good run. You told me last night you would not post the first 2 runs, because I didn't hear your honks in the first, and I went from 2nd to 5th in the second. Yet you've got our second race on your post. Also, about our 4th race...I told you I let out around 90mph. Watch the video, you see me fall back right after I wind out 2nd gear....which goes to about 93mph. You ARE being a jackass, because you know you didn't beat me by 3 cars....yet you don't straighten out the facts when idiots like Crafty say that's what happened. And I NEVER said we were even every race....I said when we finally got lined up and got a good run in, it was pretty close....and you may have edged me out by less than half a car.
Just because you kept up with me by half a car on one run doesn't mean it's the only good "one" run we had. I consider all the runs we had where you honked good... and 100% honestly, from our perspective, it seems that everytime I started to pull away hard in higher gears, you'd let off on purpose.
I DID NOT POST THE FIRST TWO RUNS WE MADE WHERE I HONKED FIRST... however, I'll GLADLY post them if you want. I don't know where the misunderstanding is... but I PURPOSELY deleted BOTH of our first two runs during the video editting process upon your request. Why do you keep bringing this up?
Also, I don't recall ever saying I beat you by xxx cars, other people are saying things... and you expect me to moderate what *other* people say? I'm here to post a video and people can say whatever they want... even if it means calling me slow or that I'm a jackass.
Again, I have no beef with you, but obviously you're not taking losing too well. It's just a race... there's plenty of more fish in the sea.
I'm sure it was. I'm the only silver evo in town. Were you in a red fc, cuz i didn't see you if so.
Yeah, haha I've got a red fc. Well if you're the only one it town I guess it must have been you.

You are contradicting yourself. First off, BEFORE we ran, YOU told me you didn't wanna go above 120. So I said we'd go to 120 - 130. I never shifted to 4th in any of the races, so I never got above 125. Secondly, there's NO reason to even chance it with traffic in front of us. I was letting off A) when you agreed we'd let off and B) what I felt was a safe time to start slowing down before we caught up to traffic. Also, you are wrong about the races. You ony honked ONCE. I honked the SECOND time (where I went from 2nd to 5th) then we pulled off at the exit. I then told you I couldn't hear you honk, so I'd just honk from there on out. There were only 4 runs last night, and one where you honked. I'm not sure what you are considering the first one where you honked. I think I saw you start to take off one time, and I didn't....maybe you are considering that one the first one.
Either way, I'm not upset about losing. But this whole thing has gotten blown WAY out of proportion. You said "I think they are all good runs" Well, OBVIOUSLY we both don't agree on that, which does NOT make it a good run. A good run is when you talk afterwards, and both parties agree that everything was fair and nothing went wrong.

This arguement is going to go no where... you'll say what you want no matter what... even when I have footage to show what happened. That's fine, tell all your buddies that you won and the 1st and 3rd race, you purposely let off... or sand bagged... or whatever you want. I don't care. I'd rather people think I'm slow, honestly. If you want, I *can* try to edit the footage so you win instead of me...
It's bullshit like this that makes racing less enjoyable. If you want to run again, NO EXCUSES FROM EITHER PARTY, come to Commerce this upcomming Friday night... I'll be there before the gates open... and to your advantage, I haven't been to the track in about 5 months. Otherwise, enjoy the video and say what you want, I'm done argueing. To be quite honest, I have bigger fish to go after than a stock c6 z06. =]

WHERE HAVE I SAID I WON???? Where have I said I'm gonna go tell all my buddies that I beat you???? In fact, I have stated several times, I think your car is slightly FASTER than mine!!
You are COMPLETELY missing the point here. I don't want you to make it look like I won, I just want all the facts out there. And the fact is, of the 3 races in your video, only one of them was good.

That's not the point... I was emphasizing... all I'm trying to say is I don't care anymore about what you say about that race.
I'm 100% equally as fast as a 100% stock z06... maybe slower on a warmer day. This is a 100% fact.
Now, lets move on... thx.
Edit: BTW, if you look in numerous other threads, I let people say they beat me and they're faster than me... makes it more fun... hence why I offered to let you say the same. =]

The fact that you say "fine, I'll admit..." seems to suggest you think I'm TRYING to get you to admit how fast or slow your car is.....which isn't the case.
But I agree to just move on.

Hey I have to say this : The Z06 makes around 460 to the wheels and is 3100lbs so with that said your shit is quick.. :goodjob: ...Its hard to catch any races without a disagreement...It happens.... :bigok: ...

No, no you didn't start to pull away everytime you 'tard. Don't you see how the 2nd race is? You don't go anywhere, you just sit there next to the Z the whole run.

Agreed. That's what we have been trying to say lol. Equally as fast, maybe even a little faster, but not 3 cars faster as clearly evident in the 2nd run of the vid. If it is 3 times faster from a roll, then that means your car should trap in the low to mid 130's in the quarter and it may or may not.

Id put money on the vette in the 1/4 mile. Brandon brake boosting makes a slow car look fast.

Me too with the Evo tuned exactly like it was that night and that will not happen (it'll be retuned) so another run between these two with the same exact conditions is near impossible.

Come to Commerece this Friday, I'll have a laptop with me so I can adjust the boost to the same way it was that night and make a pass lined up with the c6z06. There won't be any traffic either so we can run all the way to 130mph or so.

He obviously can't drive the car form a roll what hell do you think is gonna happend at the track. Thats just an easy win for you charles:goodjob:
This thread is funny. Everyone always gets their panties in a wad about semantics but the fact of the matter is Evo-4 Vette-0. I don't care about the bullshit, mine's stock, yours is modded, traffic, blah blah fucking blah. That's the joy of street racing and racing in general. The fastest car doesn't always win. Come back, do what needs to be done, and win the next time. Name calling, excuses all that bullshit is ridiculous, make the neccessary changes to win the next time and do it. I notice this almost everytime when there are actually two good cars that get lined up, which doesn't happen often, the shit storm starts about explaining shit. Who won, who lost? That's what matters. My .02, which coming from someone with a 175whp NA honda doesn't mean a whole lot I'm sure, but I just had to put it out there.

because you might be slower than them doesnt mean anything. as an enthusiast you should be able to give/take opinions and facts regardless of how butt hurt you are about anything. and thats not my .02. thats a requirement
