    "Yay let's run a dig run or a 20 roll and I am gonna SLAM the brakes at 120 cause your gonna bust my a$$."


    It's a vette vs vette race so gearing nor top speed acceleration is the concern. If you know he is faster on top then tweak your setup. Again like I said before these cars will surpass 120mph in the 1/4 so if you take it to the track your gonna get beat.


    I like to get a slight advantage over people I run but saying I hope he spins enough to where I can get to 120 before he does and slam the brakes is just a ricer move to me. That proves nothing NOR makes your car faster than his which is the point of every race.

    Build a car and make it faster than the other person by speed not by default. Being ahead of the other guy while he is up in smoke just means you got better tires BUT your still slower than him in the end.


    If you want to see who hooks better go to the track, if you want to see who is "faster" go from a good roll.

    if your racing at the track and the other guy blow his tires off through 3rd gear, then he may make more power than you but you are still "faster" for the fact that your car hooks and his doesnt.
