Its boring because no one wants to take a chance when they race someone, they all want a guaranteed win.
There's no other cars in my power range worth racing right now. It would make for boring video.
Maybe after I get a cam I can run cars like Seymour222, champ_coupe, b0ki and other ~500whp cars even though I'll be underpowered.
I know there will always be faster cars, so losing isn't a big deal to me.
It just gets insanely boring watch people talk about Mazdas and Mini Coopers racing.
If any 350-420rwhp cars want to run, I'm down. My car dyno'd 360rwhp (which is what stock Z06s dyno in at) on Main Stream's dynojet but I don't care if I run 420whp car. It's all in fun.

A dig shows more control of your right foot.

I don't think that's wrong. I think it's kind of smart, especially if they're racing for high stakes and don't know how to launch.Originally Posted by DropTopDrifter

I planned on going to the track(Commerce) to get some seat time.
My car was down for over 8 months, then I had it back for about a month and it went right back into the shop again for another 3 months.
I'm DONE upgrading so its time to enjoy the car now.
Yeah, my old car was only down for 4 months and it felt like forever.Originally Posted by 2.3 Evo 8
It's the little things that will start breaking that sucks. Ah well. that's the way it goes with expensive and unreliable hobby.
I'm just waiting on my new Cams to get here and my Gt28r turbo....then I'm racing for sure....
Cool, I'm looking forward to see the finished product.Originally Posted by 2.3 Evo 8

I like both but pefer roll races so i wont break nothing plus dig runs are risky no where to do them without worrying about the popo. iloveboost we can run sometime just for fun im around your power range so ill let you know when
I'll only be at this power for a few more weeks. I'm also closing on my house in the next few weeks also, so I don't know if I'll be out anytime soon. My next opportunity will probably be after my car is modded.Originally Posted by WickedIXMR
Well what are you getting done? It doesnt really matter all fun and gamesOriginally Posted by iloveboost

I understand a roll run, esp. for the awd guys where, unless you have a team behind you or a thick wallet, you can;t afford to be breaking shit...unless you're running for enough money to fix broken things and then some.

I see no point in running from a roll if it is a call-out; from a roll for the hell of it is ok too I guess.
rolls are all about the kung fu shift.
