Default My friends new SS VS> new roush and integra gsr spraying.
He just got the car just a couple days before the races so hes having some trouble learning how to launch right now but man he pulls harrd in 3rd on both races. The integra has long tubes and some lil bolt ons along with a 65 shot. the roush is stock along with the SS.

I believe once he gets it down on launching he should put some cars on both of them. This is his 1st RWD car he just sold a prelude to get the SS so hes in a whole new world.

Yeah once he learns how to launch the car good, and gets some drag radials, he will be alot happier. he just needs to watch out for the rear end to snap.

I REALLY wish you would have mentioned that I left traction control on...

Was trying to save the tires (bad idea...) and ended up almost bogging down enough to kill it...
Raced the GSR/ITR tonight again and walked him... Videos should be up soon hopefully

You shouldn't worry bout breaking you rear until you get a lil more power to the ground..

That's not much slower than how i launch. 2nd + 3rd gears need to become close friends of yours. I hate first. Was the roush automatic? I couldn't tell

Nope, the roush was a 5 speed... Im not really sure why we even posted the video to tell you the truth

My terrible launch + him missing 3rd = bad race
