Default A small taste of redemption !

Ran my friend in the notch again with a passenger in one race and no passenger in the next two , I didn't lose this time ! Also ran the c5 z ( vararam intake , header's ,exhaust , drag radials ) that I had run and posted video of a while back .Last time I ran both these car's I had my 250 pound friend with me . When I ran the vette today the 2 out of 3 times we ran from a 50 roll to about 125 staying completely even with each other but the one my friend kinda caught on film the vette pulls away at the end . I know I should of some how filmed it , sorry !


Skip to 1:52 to see my runs or watch the other run's that went down if you like

Tried to get a 3 way race with the vette and 5.0 but they either would slow down too much and by the time I could into gear they would take off or I would spin terribly so definitely gotta stick with 50 rolls , one race I start in 1st (you see me burnout but I stay in it to win it ) and actually got some traction after but every other time no traction ! Was nice to run even with the vette cause last time he would pass me by 100 and take the win or get me from the start but today we ran pretty much even. I wish I got the runs with the vette on film cause they were so close .

Things that have might have helped 1 no heavy *** passenger 2 less than 1/2 a tank this time 3 Had my special racing shoes ( extremely worn out skate shoes you can literally bend in half ) lol !
