and spinning ain't winning..
so i know 198plus would kill me anywhere below 60mph
why dont you and z0sick runQuote:

The last run I didnt even brake boosted since you were being so slow with the horn. so I just went whenever I heard the 3rd horn..:goodjob: I let off and then you pass me and then you light up your brakes :yes: I dont have the luxury of those big brakes like you ;) .
Hey AnclyT, I raced a asian guy in a red SRT4 once and I got him but I dont know if his name was ming?Quote:

Yes all I had to do was step on the gas- whats sneaky about that? No bottle back then.:screwy:
You went on the 2nd horn.:tongue1:
Again if you think we are evenly match let's line them up again? Do I officially need to call you out in another thread? Like I said you on pump me on motor----you on race fuel and all the :locked: boost you can crank out of that lil car and me on the bottle.:nx:
Dont make a difference to me RJ.
I love the way the few people that have "beaten" me on this board bend the truth of what happened on the internet but yet wont line up again to put it on tape.
After b0ki and I run your next RJ. I will bring another bottle just for you.:idb:

:screwy:
I got a few missing components coming in this week so have your boosted bimmer ready.;)
By the way its 100shot; you do the math from my below current #'s.:D
looks like im not going to be able to run.....the shop my car is at called and said its going to be 2 more weeks till its done, then once i get it back ive got a 500 mile break in on the new clutch. but when my car is back and ready,ill let everyone know so we can do some runs.
the only cure for traction in a big turbo FWD car is BIG TIRES
stuff some 225 DRs under that thing an youll be fine andy :)
I think that is what he is runningQuote:

if he got a 225 on those ITR rims ill be impressed lolQuote:

im running 255s on the silvia, thats really what he needs but its almost inpossible in a FWD
i believe thats what he is running.Quote:

if hes running 225s AND DR then wow, i dunno what to say. he should be spinning that bad.
is he running DR or Street Tires? is he running ET STREETS?
he is running DR 225's. he has the world sport boost controller. havent had time to hook up his gear dependent function.

These are the tires hes runing on now...
You guys just need to work on getting that car to Hook better, 225 DR, It should be a little better than it is.. :D .. No Pun intended.. ;) Just my :2cents: .. .. Later
Your not QD!!!!!
Im Jk
Could it be that he has little thread on them? Could that be a reason?
Also looking at the Rake of the car The front is not Loaded at any point... ;)
i couldnt tell from the video how his car sits but yeah suspension prob isnt up to par eitherQuote:

I seen it, Looks like maybe he had a Fat chick in the back seat... :lmfao:Quote:

I think his car is low enough... any lower and that downpipe of his will hook something...Quote:

Holy Shit Mike.... We agree on something... :goodjob:Quote:

yeah Omni drag rears and ET streets should do the trick. ive never really been a fan of the BFGs after seeing what the ET STREETs do
:yes: :goodjob: they're great for running around but for racing you just cant beat the extra trac of et streets especially in fwd!! :bump:Quote:

Yeah, that was me. At the time we ran, I believe I had pulled off some parts on my car, I was on pump gas, and I was on 215 street tires. I have everything back on the car now and was running race gas against AnclyT while on DR's.Quote:

is basically as low as i can get it in the front.. without having my down pipe being torn off
i'm running 225/50/15 bfg drag radials and some kei office coilovers
before, when i had generic coilovers, i used to spin in 3rd, so the traction has gotten a lot better already
if anything, i just need to hook up my independent gear boost and fix my ignition problem.. and maybe get some et streets in a bigger size
Tim's car is no longer together. Most of the setup is going into my car this week with some improvements........Quote:

Anyway since we have 2 diff. stories let's meet again bring a camera guy w/you I will bring mine, oh let's do it today if you want, meet me downsouth by moreland I have a good spot.
Do you want to do a 20 - 150 that should let us know for sure who pulls on who... not the I'm going to but I dont think you are going to put me to shame if I race you with 340ish to the wheels...
Let me know when boris and you are racing and i'll be there with my C16 to match you Nitrous.
I'll horn this time.
