  1. Fixed for manliness.

     

    Sure an auto makes launching easier, but to me, with very few exceptions, a race car has a clutch. If you can't launch it, learn how (yeah you may spend more money on the suspension and such in the end).

     

    There are a ton of waaaay fast FWD cars these days, but no one can seriously say they aren't handicapped to some degree right from the start. I realize alot of the truly fast FWD cars typically start out with basics and spiral out into insanity land... but I would never set out to make a high hp FWD car except maybe to fit class restrictions (I'd probably not choose such a class to build to).

     

    I realize this doesn't answer Paul's question, as he is the handicapped one (:D) in that his car is a reasonably high HP car that's FWD... Except to say that it seems alot of cars these days are all about huge power and not so much driving or suspension prep. Kinda makes sense I guess since it's not uncommon to see 500 hp street cars these days. I think that's why roll racing has become so big lately, when less than 10 years ago it was all about dig racing.

    With an auto you dont kill as many parts
  2. All Runs, the Turbo Fox spun through 2nd and 3rd, but post up the video. Like I said, the biggest gun there that day didnt even feel the need to rep. C town, as the other cars did well enough on there own.

     

    But yes, poet the videos-should be one of the GT@ ahead of you, the Turbo Fox, and maybe that Subie eh? I'm sure you'll do some clever editing, but dont forget to include those as well.

    No need 2 edit your boy already posted the suby and GT2 race where the vette takes the wins. And your boy with the turbo 331 already watched the video that night of the tails. Fast cars that night but the vette is sporting that crown.
  3. If you consider a 3 bike Jump a win, then you beat me. ;) The only 2 times we ran you had 2-3 bikes before I even go on throttle, fuck the first one I was not even done down shifting before you left! I know you wanted the hit, but fuck. :p Dover game me the hit and could not come around me to 180mph-oh well. Lets try something close to even starts next time and see what happens.;)

     

    Glad you guys had fun-we could have stayed out for another 5 hours with no issues from the man. As far as Columbus Cleaning up-Sam admitted the Subie beat him-And The Turbo Fox seemed to stay ahead of Josh the run I witnessed. Funny thing is, the Blue Cobra was faster than everyone you listed, and would have run if he didnt see The Turbo Stang already beat Josh.

     

     

    Good times though. :) Sam's car is going to be tuff with a motor and more boost-it will dominate with about 300more whp, and that should get the Cleveland big Guns out. :bangbang:

    First race as soon as we hit my car spun sideways..both runs after turbo fox was in the rear view.Anthony was in the car with video we can post up for ya. Every car i raced should be able to tell you all about my tail lights.
  4. Its sick but I would prefer a LSx swapped rx7 over that. I couldnt even imagine how a car that light with that much power would feel like. It would be like having a car equiped with a flux capacitor. Push the gas down hard in 3rd gear and bam....
    Its not as crazy as you think:ninja:
  5. I don't plan on trying to be fast anymore (in a car) I want something fun to drive fuck building and breaking. I have big plans for my busa.
    Get an E55 they run well look sweet seat 4 and get ok gas milage can be had kinda cheap now
