    why cant anyone say a loss is a loss no matter what happened? a bird could have pooped in your lap and u tried to strangle it mid race, you still lost!

    want to settle it? DO IT AT THE STRIP. then the only complaint anyone can have is that they cant drive or dont know the diff betweeen yellow n green lights.
    I suppose the issue, is normally when I race...I want everything right...so you can see which CAR is better, not which DRIVER is better. And if you look at the title of the thread and the comments.......it's "Charles beat a Z06"

    Well, if I screwed up so badly (and in 4 races, I only screwed up one of them) then a more accurate statement would be "Charles beat Lankhoss."

    Charles didn't screw up at all that night, and I screwed up once. The rest of the bad runs I blame on the conditions (traffic, unable to hear honks, etc.). No matter who or what is racing, I just hate to have runs where you've got things like that interfering, that's all. We did a few tonight on an empty highway, and ALL of them went well....I just wish that night had turned out as well for the runs.

    im sure in an ideal world, we woudn't see color or race or age or discrimination, or hate, or war..... a race is a race. if someone initiates and the other complies, its a race and whether or not someone makes a mistake or doesn't, its still a race.

    i agree that it would be nice to have all the variables gone so you could see which car is indeed faster, but that will hardly ever be the case since this isn't a perfect world and the conditions in which are presented to us in each "run" will have its own flaws... but the better driver will prevail and sometimes, the better car will lose. in this case.. i believe the better driver and the better car won. what makes u so confident that charles couldn't run any faster than he did?

    suck it up and chalk it down as a LOSS. i hate to say this, but WINNING IS WINNING!!! by an inch or a 1/4 mile.. WINNING IS WINNING! own up to ur loss and stop trying to make excuses.. no one wants to hear about this crap anymore...
