    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... I don't reach full boost but for a blink in 2nd gear but bla bla, stop posting so I can work on the vid. =]
    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.
