the one race which was fair to both of us was the first one, i wasn’t heatsoaked (no intercooler) and no slippy clutch…

from a 15 he got the jump then i sailed right by him to the distance of about 3~ cars (stated by the spectators) then it went all down hill from after that, each race he’d end up getting me by 1-1.5 cars with no pulling by ethier of us…

let me throw in my new clutch and the Intercooler and that first race will look like the rest of the three. i’m not one to talk shit (travis) but you have my gaurntee.

if you trapped 88-89 i must be trapping 92-93.

all in good fun. :nod

Word, the other races Pete was heatsoaked, there’s no doubt…that’s why he got pulled in the other races…but still the VR6 was pulling verrryyy slowly

Honestly idk if driver would have made a difference, there was a pretty large margin of victory…I would call it closer to 4 cars.

Not to mention the video shows a moderate, steady, pulling away.

pete get off your ass and bolt up ur intercooler, and well do more than one run. it kinda hard to tell with just one pull.

and the is NO WAY you are trapping 92-93 sorry :crackup

all i needed to do is one run, i need to get a clutch for it anywho… for amounts of CL’s i put on you i don’t see why i wouldn’t be trapping low 90’s. the golf is the same exact way, do one pull then it starts to get slower and slower asking benny, he can justify as can dennis. like i stated earlier let me get a clutch and hook up the Intercooler, fix my injector issue, and it will be smooth sailing. you obviously have little to no knowledge on forced induction.

We left after the first run, no doubt about it Pete yanked him hard the first run, heat soak is more than understandable, but we’ll see once he gets the ic on.

another race won’t happen till i throw a new clutch in her, she slips pretty good in the 3-4 shift.

ya the ONE pull i yanked cuz i was not heatsoaked,you don’t go back to back at the track, its a solid 30-45 minutes of waiting before you run again and that gives time for it to cool down… going back to back to back the iat’s are going thru the roof and its cutting back fuel and timing you have to understand that dave, which you apparently don’t. you don’t go back to back at the track, its a solid 30-45 minutes of waiting before you run again and that gives time for it to cool down.
