Default Me v.s. MS3 Z06

Ran a 02 Z06 with headers, x-pipe, intake, and a MS3 that just got tuned. We ran from a roll about 35mph stayed even till about 100 then he put about a 1/2 car on me. 4.10s arent good on the highway so once i start to finish out 4th im done.

hmmm,i would of thought you would pull on a z06 with those mods with a 150 shot. you should be in the 480-500 rw range.i would think he should be in the 425-440 range.was your pressure pretty low ?

ya my pressure was low only at like 700psi. I think he made like 435 but his car weighs in at 3100pounds. Thats why were going to run again monday when my bottle is full but i didnt want to make it sound like i was making excuses.

The close races are the ones that really get your heart racing.

You went up against a strong car and held up, you can't win 'em all.

Hope the next race turns out differently, can't wait to see the vid. ~Joshua

thats the thing there isnt anywhere to run from a dead stop i wish i could. Everyone just wants to run from a roll i dont mind losing its just i like to run cars that are a lil above my league and see if i can out drive them. ill post up a vid next week some time after the race monday night.

35mph in 2nd gear is pretty crappy. He was probably in 1st if he's on stock gears and blasted you out of the hole. Get him to run you from 45-50 with both of you in 2nd.
