He runs 14's on Nitrous, do you really think he's gonna go?

I looked at my timeslips, I can get a 2.6 60', Hit a fuel cut from over boosting in 3rd gear which requires me to shift into neutral and back into 3rd, then hit my rev limiter at 8300 rpm and still hand him his ass.

What is "gay" is people who spend shit loads of money every other week to change their engine combo just so they can update their signature. Bracket racing eliminates the $$ factor and puts it all on the driving.

so i guess all types of drag racing are gay... time to go street racing where 12 second cars can beat 10 second cars and all the rich people stay away.

I was there. I did horrible. I missed a gear on 3 of 4 runs, and on the one I didnt miss a gear I bogged it for a 2.4x 60 ft. Pathetic [Frown] I also missed winning $500 by 1 thousandth of a second. I cut a .501 reaction time and a perfect .500 would have been $500 for me, but oh well. I'll do better next time.

hey more power to you if your idea of "racing" is sitting on a delay box (or worse) sitting in 'D' and trying to cut a good light.

I'd rather compete in a class with set limits (cubes, power adder, weight, etc.) where the better built combo will win.

Anyone who doesn't think drag racing isn't all about ET=$$$ is fooling themselves anyways.

Of course the big pockets will be faster.

Honestly I'll probably run in the 'Summit series' in Sacramento simply because there's nothing better to do!
