Stock Z06 beats Purple Skyline GTR 3 times! Post up the vid!

[m1key99ws6]

I didn't get an opportunity to catch the drivers name but I enjoyed racing with him tonight. We ran 3 times in the 1/8th and I had about 4-5 cars each time (3rd time with a supercharged mustang too - 3 wide, I'm not sure if the skyline beat him, but again about 4-5 cars).

Post up the videos, I was only able to see the first one that your buddy took, I think you were leaving the line around @ 6K.

If you do not want to post it send it to me a link via PM when you get a chance.

I heard someone say that your clutch broke on the way home but I'm not positive. Hopefully you made it back home okay.

Cheers,

Mike

Sayajin is his SN and yes his clutch is very fucked up. he can't even put the car in gear. he had to call triple A.

[Nyteryder]

You are not the silver one that I raced on the hwy

[RBpoweredSileighty]

he locked his keys in the car and i called AAA then with an antenna it got unlocked. i know his clutch was getting shitty but it wont go in gear now???

[mugen_s2000]

that whole clutch went out. When he gets it fixed in the next week or so, I want to get that same run again on film. I will then post up.

[OHYOUKNOW]

no hes not the silver one. black one running around. since your not going to post it can you send it to me....................

[m1key99ws6]

Yah send me a copy of it too please when you get a moment. Post up a pic of the clutch when you guys get it out.

I'm curious if this guys skyline is trinhs old car. If i remember that color (midnight purple) was the only R33 in the country that was legal. That sucks about the clutch though...taking the trans out of that car is no fun from what i've heard from sam at tiger racing.

good runs mike.

the skyline is stock, right? so a stock 500hp car that weighs 3000lbs beats a stock 300hp car that weighs 3400lbs.. i'm stunned at this result.

Yes its stock, minus exhaust

mikes zo6 is an 03 so its only 405 hp. The skyline is not stock and has 350 whp from whats been posted about it on this forum so really they were around the same hp but the skyline is heavier but should have a big advantage off the line.

[Sayajin]

Sorry but I am forced to interject here.

One, my car is compltely stock except for a 3' catback exhaust with full cat and resonator. Everything else is stock INCLUDING the factory air filter. lol oh and its about 3600lbs stock. Plus the 3 people I had in the car.

Two, my clutch was messing up from the first run, remember I was saying that the damn thing wouldnt launch correctly? Well it was becuase my clutch was dieing damn near instantly.

I would love to actually re-run that race once I get my clutch fixed seeing as how I never really got to go all out since my clutch seems to have started going out on the highway run up there. Not that I expect to necessarily win however I would love the opportunity. Thanks.


As for the car, yes it is FUCKED. lol. My clutch is completely gone, and it damn near died instantly. It started going out on the highway run to the spot, I really started noticing it my first and 2nd runs. Realized what the problem was on my 3rd run, started to leave, drove 1000ft and suddenly had no clutch at all. I mean NONE. I can leave it in gear with the car on and it doesnt shut off once I remove my foot from the clutch. And NONE of the gears work not even reverse. We tried damn near everything including pushing, trying to engage with the engine off, popping the cluch, being very forcefull with it, ect. Alas.... it is gone. Oh well! Time for an Exedy upgrade! lol.

Thanks a lot for all of the help last night guys. I really appreciate it. I will post more info about the episode a little later but seeing as how it is 1.36pm and I am JUST getting home from last night I am tired as hell! Thanks.

Dude, I'm so fucking tired from that night... I didn't get in until around 7:30 because after we dropped you off, Chris' girls mustang failed to start. We had to go jump her off. Anyway, I am willing to help out anyone that needs it, and seeing as nobody was really willing to stay until the tow-truck showed (and I will post up pics in a second after I upload those) I figured I would. Yeah, I want to see the re-run of that race, only because since I do have footage of the bad launch/clutch gone runs, it would make for an interesting vid. For those wanting a copy, at the next meet (where ever the hell it will be after all, the cops did bust that shit up) I will give a copy.

NOTE: It isn't a very long vid... I was mainly doing a compilation from NOPI last year and then runs in my friends Nissan 200SX (HotNissanBoys' car) so if you don't mind have that in there, I won't have to waste tape. Anyway, PM me if you want a copy

[CHADbee]

, and seeing as nobody was really willing to stay until the tow-truck showed

yeah well 3 of the 4 of us had just wreaked our cars cause of a sprinkler system shooting a lake of water into the street and sliding sideways, then backwards going 80mph then i had to ride 45mph home on a spare...whick i did'nt get home till 5;30am i told Mo since triple A was on the way i was making my way home.

anyways Mo, i just need to know if ur car is push or pull style and i just got off the phone with my buddy...which one u need? i tried to call u but no answer.

Mine only Dyno'd 345RWHP so the power is exactly the same, however I'm not sure on the weight, I'm not familar with the skyline (I've always heard it's supposed to be the baddest import, but I'm not too entirely impressed).

Hopefully it won't cost too much to get it fixed.

Still, your Corvette is made of fiberglass and has more torque than the Skyline. That along with the fucked clutch made this a truely unfair race. Let's re-run after he gets it fixed and we will see what happens... I looked at the vid again and saw that we never even quite got out a single gear because of the clutch not catching. maybe if we could actually shift the outcome would have been better (still, I think the Z06 is gonna pull, but not as quick... )

Post up the video so I could see, I know you guys made it in 2nd and 3rd I'm pretty sure the outcome would the be same even if he could drive, and the clutch functioned. Heck, we ran 3 times, are you saying evertime he didn't get it into 2nd and 3rd?

Post the vids! I'd be glad to re-run that car in the 1/8th, 1/4th, Road Atlanta, Auto-X.

[Fast Shadow]

sounds like a nice car but i don't see why a Z06 beating it is a surprise.. hopefully the skyline will run him again with a few mods.

[SL33P3R]

TO tell you how bad it was messed up (Moes car) We could put it in gear, take our foot ALL THE WAY off the clutch and it wouldnt stall out

-Taylor

[mugen_s2000]

one thing that really cracked me up was the fact that the guy that came to tow the car was the same one that towed the wrecked Mustang from what, a week or two ago. lol

[RBpoweredSileighty]

haha that ol' mid 30's redneck dude? i remember asking him what he was gonna do with the bumper LOL

[mugen_s2000]

here are the pics...

[mugen_s2000]

^ yeah, I remember you saying something about that. it's cool, I had no problem chilling next to the Skyline. lol

[CHADbee]

I had no problem chilling next to the Skyline. lol

any other situation i would have sat there and chilled with MORRIS untill the tow truck came but i was alittle shook up from the three wreaks that thank god could have been alot worse that just some car damage.

dude, I was talking to Morris the entire time, but I mean, considering I rarely see skylines, I was kinda enjoying that too. no need to make me sound like an ass about shit dude.

[TIGERJC]

I would had stayed too. But I had no sleep in 24hrs and then I had a 1 hr drive back home, I just wanted to go home after all that shit last night.

Of the imports I'm partial to those little civic hatchbacks that are superlight and work good with a turbo.

ARe u serious? U are comparing a stock car to a modded civic, all I can say is WOW!

[mugen_s2000]

I mean, I even tried to help him get the damn thing running, and he even thanked me; quite a few times actually.

[hydroshutter]

Sucks to hear about the clutch, hope it's on the road again soon. I didn't get in until 4:45.

[SpeedMonkey]

pussies.. i got in @ 6am.. but i understand you guys just arent in my level of gangsta yet.

[RBpoweredSileighty]

The Supra is the baddest of the Japanese supercars when it comes to straight line racing.

"only" 4 car lengths is a lot... lol

my friend is also building up his skyline currently to be pretty fast... good luck to you with yours. =D

Thx man. I appreciate the well wishes.

The reason I was saying only 4 car lengths was from a comparitive standpoint. What I was getting at was if a Corvette with 500-600WHP only beat me by 4 car lengths, it would be obvious that one with 400WHP would not be able to beat me by the same amount.

Not necessarily true. I imagine that a car with 100 less rwhp than me can launch better than I can.

I can see your point, but I think when it comes to dig racing, it's about more than just hp numbers. I also don't know what kinda tires that guy is running, but I am on stock runflats with pretty low tread.

I do agree that once you get your clutch fixed, it will be a different story though.

[m1key99ws6]

I definately respect the fact that he came out and raced his car, unlike a lot of people. My Z06 cuts 1.70 60's (at the track and on the street)
