Default On the way home right now, I raced a C5 Vette/Conv. 3 TIMES and beat him!

I know on 2 of these he was really racing. On the last try I think he finally realized he wasn't going to win and backed off. This was again all frwy runs and no 0-60 stuff. My car simply rocks!

Coming out of my business park I saw him ahead of me, I went through some traffic and was next at the stop sign. He had already gone. The road ahead turns right and then dumps out on to the feeder road and only one car at a time can go. I nailed it from the stop sign through 3rd and got ahead of him before the right hander. I heard him downshift and try to catch up...no dice as he was chicken **** to stuff it in to that corner. Doesn't matter as I had the best line and could carry my speed through.

Now we are on the feeder road. He's on my *** the whole time. I was in 2nd gear and nailed it a few times to pull ahead. This is all one lane as they are doing contruction. It finally opens back up in to 2 lanes and I take off with him behind me. I slowly pull away and have about 4 cars on him getting on the frwy.

On the frwy, I let him catch up, go down a gear and we go at it. Same thing....I pull him through 3rd, 4th and 5th.....go through some more traffic and wait for him to catch up.....same thing.

After the 3rd run, he simply stayed with traffic and never attempted to try and catch/keep up.

I LOVE MY CAR!

Default AVS's have a stiffer sidewall. The S-02's "wallow" a bit during sharp maneuvers.

I've only had the tires a short time. No idea how they wear.

Default Man, you need to quit! ;) Did you go out saturday night?

MAN. I wish I would have went. There was some fast *** cars out there running. The 9 sec Viper's N2O wasn't working, so he didn't race Darren's Supra. SW's Supra ran a 383/SC T/A and pulled him pretty bad....SW does make 804rwhp. There was a 240 out there that ran a 11.1 @ 129mph....Texas has too much HP out there. I think it's time for me to go back to the drawing board. :-p

Default Here's SW's Supra putting a hurting on the T/A

It's amazing that he's not the fast Supra in Austin. I gotta hand it to Toyota. Not many companies can claim 800+ rwhp w/o internal modifications (except cams).<ul><li><a href="http://home.austin.rr.com/elitemotorsports/video/PHRSinglevsSWvsSCStrokedTA.wmv">http://home.austin.rr.com/elitemotorsports/video/PHRSinglevsSWvsSCStrokedTA.wmv</a</li></ul>

Default Of course I went! ;p

SW's Supra was nice...his was the black one right? I'll send you pics tomorrow from work. One guy in a riced-up Honda pulled out into traffic and his rear bumper FELL OFF in front of about 400 people! Too dam funny....

Default Well, there was a couple Black ones from Austin

SW's was the one with the 18" Fikses. Darren had the black one with the Gunmetal Volks.

In Austin, if you're not making more than 650rwhp, you're getting smoked. hehehe

Darren went looking for Bikes to race at the bike hangout, but nothing worked out.
