    Default This section is boring lately.

    Roll Races vs. Dig Runs

    What do you prefer, and why?

    I don't care if it's been asked before!

    It has been extremely boring. I've been waiting for my car to get finished before calling anyone out. Hopefully within the next 3-4 weeks.

    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.

    I'll be ready for some runs in about 1 week, I hope.

    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.

    It's the little things that will start breaking that sucks. Ah well. that's the way it goes with expensive and unreliable hobby.

    When i used to do more street stuff, when i had my 96, i preferred a dig... because most the idiots out there dont know how to launch a car properly...is it wrong to pick on people you know cant drive and take advantage of it?

    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.

    the only times i ever raced for money i got SOL'ed, but they paid in other ways. I remember old battle ground, watching who was running and how well they were leaving the line and picking on them later lol. I miss those days. But then again, i was running a 4.10 lsd which helped out a lot.

    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 probably won't be out until after my mods due to closing on a house and getting things ready w/ moving and all. If I am, I'll shoot you a PM.

    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.

    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.
