You were friggen ripping.
Maybe after I actually do some bolt ons to my car and reflash to stage 2, get better tires and brakes, i’d love to race you next track day. But until then, I was having enough trouble with the yellow s2k

I don’t think anything you do will even help… He was flying around Dunnville like it was his job…
With that being said your just going to be :deadhorse2:

Meh, I feel ,my lines were pretty danm good, and I was catching/passing cars that out classed mine.
I feel with a combination of my suspension setup/shitty tires/shitty brakes, I was easily tacking on 3 seconds a lap.
Not an excuse at all, as I didn’t come prepared. I’m just saying, when i am prepared, I’d like to run him just to see how I do.

> what kinda numbers are you putting down if you had to guess because me and vandit ran from a roll the other night and we were dead nuts even from 40-110…i wont even bother racing a FWD car on the street that has close to my power because it turns into a shit show…
agreed…i dont think it would be below a 13.5 and thats being optimistic… i bet you go and run 14.0 all day…
just my opinion… get to the track and back up whatever it is your trying to prove.

I have time slips of people with my mods trapping 8 mph less. All that matters is your car. Showing anyone elses stuff is just bench racing.
And the harlequin is the stupidest car ever. When my grandpa had an escort in 94 that looked like that, no one thought it was cool.

For example… my first time EVER at nyirp, I had my green 95 neon, dyno’d 289 whp and 321 ft/lb. I ran a 14.1, 13.7, and 13.5. I later got that down to 12.9, but it takes LOTS of practice.

i love when people guess what they will run at the strip and then i see them run. its always drastically different and not in a good way.
if you want to run good times at a dragstrip, you wont want to bring street tires. youll want some slicks even if you have to borrow them.

Althought, first time I brought my bike I though i was going to run high 11’s…low 12’s.
2nd run I ran a 11.40 🙂
I wanna run my wrx stock…then again stage 2… I bet stock i’ll be around 14.2-14.4

I’m fully aware all I said was that I think I could do it… Its just my opinion. I was just simply stating that it has been done before… Everyone else is entitled to their own opinion, ill try to get to the track when I get back from Florida.

setting up races for me,thanks cal! lol… i would run him from a dig if hes saying his car pulls stock sti’s from a roll, and from a dig would come down “to the driver” sweet, my car pulls on stock sti’s from rolls as well…ive ran a few stock sti’s from digs and i crucify them…is it that my car is faster? maybe, maybe not…i know how to drive my car and how to launch it…i pull low 1.7 60 fts on street tires at the track…a dig race is only gonna be good for the GTI if he can get a decent launch and hope he’s got enough power to run me down…ask articzap for the video of me launching at the redlight lol…if his car is making the claimed power levels then running him from a roll would be foolish…my ~250ish whp to his ~280-290 whp with A LOT less weight (around 500 lbs) would be a waste of my gas…im down to run some dig races any place anytime
