Default Win/lose...wtf? SRT4...

Well around here there is a kid with a stock SRT4 who likes to run his mouth alot. So I finally said put up or shutup. He goes " oh my friend in a stage 3 will race you"

Oh ok so your friend has to do it...k.

He gets his friend there, its a stage 3 with toys, all that ****. We were going to run from a 30 roll for 100$. KEEP IN MIND I could have easily raped him from a dig on street tires, but I let him have his 30 roll were he got NO wheel spin and full spool very quickly. Then he changes his mind and wants to go for fun when I wouldnt pop my hood.. I finally agreed to open my hood if he promised to still race for moeny after. Popped hood..he see's nitrous blah blah blah.

We get to the spot, go from a 30 roll...he pulled about 4-5 feet my front bumper was at his rear and then I hit about 70mph and shifted into 3rd and began to spray. I cant spray in 2nd it gives bad traction problems. And a car pulled out in front of him so to be curtious I slammed on my brakes so he could get over. He said thanks and we lined up again...same result...except right when I start spraying again a car was in front of me...Now keep in mind this road is usually 99% empty I believe there was something going on near by.

We pull to the gas station up the road and he said niether of the races were fair so no money was exchanged. He said my car is flat out fastest and he saw my front end raise up like hell when I started spraying first and I was gaining fast before I let off. So the guy seemed cool said he was post on SRTfourms and Svtperformance.

I go on SRTforums and see that he posted he raced me and said the race was nasty and killed me...I guess that really doesnt seem fair to me a race 30-70mph, and I was practically not on the bottle?

It was a fast car and I respect it but jeese is it fair to run your mouth after I didnt even get a chance?

hahahahaha what the hell there was no racing, you cant call a 30-70mph run a race???? i saw the video, who was honking becasue they sucked at it, all in all there is no way that can be called a race, it looks like the only way to settle it is to take them to the track! if the **** talking gets that bad take them both to the track use the bottle and show mr neon what nitro does from a dig!

He seems like a respectable guy minus his post. Just take him up on the 2nd race and fight it from there.

I didnt "run into" nor "crash" nor "smash" I was doing about..1mph in nuetral ( automatic car, we were sitting there and I didnt feel like holding the brake) My phone rang I reached in my pocket and looked left for traffic and I roll into him slightly not realizing we were on a very small down hill. Did absolutely no damage to my car and may have left a hairline scratch on his, I offered to call the police and /or give him my insurance. But he didnt want too because I think he knew there wasnt enough damage to do anything. Either way it was a dumbass thing to do that Im ashamed of believe me.

I was honking but I got messed up because he kept falling back so I tried slowing down and just didnt focus on the honks.

The track he ran a 12.8 spinning down the track, I'd LOVE to run there

Im just gonna say **** it and get my Drag Radials mounted friday and run from like a 25 while im in first gear.


Chad

Zentenk- Thanks man.
Night winddrtf- Yea he is a pretty straight up good guy> I respect him and it is a fast *** skittle.

You can spray in 2nd. You NEED to.
Just peddle it some and when you hit 3rd you will be gone.

I heard you HIT this guy at a stop sign before the race? HAHA
So a accident and a race.

I only have a little four-banger so let me mod the **** out it but you can't do **** to your big bad V8. If I get beat, that's because your big bad V8, but if I beat you, it's because your car is old tech, push rod, heavy *** pig that can't make power.

I heard you got some drag radials. That's true, it only ran a 12.8 at 114 with only 12inches of street tire. I've only got 5 runs in at the track with the car. The mph was good enough for a low 12 high 11, but I need slicks to ring this car out. You don't know how hard it is to run this car from a stop and get a good time, without slicks. It's ran at over 89mph in the 1\8, but the ET is ****, because it will spin the tires til 3rd gear without trying. It's really a crap shoot, I can drive the car, but my tires aren't liking me. I set off to build this car with a goal in mind. Low 12's on street tires at 115mph. Well the first and only time to the track it run a 12.8 at 114, I know there's more in the car, but I won't go back without slicks. This car is alot faster then most think. Chad, now you've seen my car, and it by no way stands out as flashy or mean in anyway, stock intercooler, screams easy kill. But she is a little pain in the ***, the spool is there, and no lag. Remember guys it's a titanium aluminide turbo, that is fully spooled by 2500rpm. I've owned a Ls1 in my brief history on this planet. I told you that I thought that your car is a faster machine, I know my old one was. We'll have to set up a rematch, and get some more clean runs in to showcase your cars talents. For the ones on here that want to know what my car does, here's a in car of it. I only got a couple of runs, in testing, after I completed the install\breakin. Enjoy it, it's the meat N potatoes of my stg3 car.

My 400rwhp SS traps 92mph in the 1/8 and 117mph in the 1/4 and has walked several stage 3 SRT4's, I can only imagine what it would do to them with 500rwhp, lol. All it takes is a cam and bolt-ons to beat them with stage 3, to be honest im sure of the stronger bolt-on LS1's could out run them too.

Read both threads. I think its funny all the friends were talking **** to the sport compact owner and then the muscle lost.

Also, camaro owner with the 150 shot... Are you really 16? A 16 year-old with a 500 whp car?
