Default T78 Turbo Foxbody Vs Nitrous C5 Corvette

The guy in the corvette is my friend Austin and he is in our car club SPADES. He was getting relative traction compared to the fox... I guess you just can't run ET Streets on a T78 Turbo Car Anywho Austin was on 75% progressive of his 200 shot so he was around 150 shot. ENJOY!

Good kill. Nice cars. I'd like to see the outcome if that Fox would of hooked though. Not taking away from anyone but damn that car would be silly.

On th elast race (the roll race) the mustang spun the least ... So that was a pretty good race. Like I said austin is pretty smart so he did not turn the progressive controller up all the way or he would have looked like the mustang. Maybe he should have turned down the boost a little or not have had ET Streets ya know.

Hoosier DRs or a set of M/T DRs would have done the Mustang alot better. Running ET Streets on the street is like running a E303 cam in a 5.0 or driving a LT1 now.......It was cool back in 1994 but get with the times!

God Damn!

Those were some crazy runs.
It looked like the fox hooked up alright from a roll where the vette still edged it out, but I couldn't exactly tell.
Both crazy cars

The guy in the vette has a few toys: a 2jz 240, a nice 10sec GTO, The C5, a oldschool rat rod, and a 09 escalade lifted of big mud tires. He is really cool, he bought a 08 M5 when they first came out and I raced him. That damn M5 locked down with me up until 160 and he would start walking away.

I must say that the fox is a total sleeper until he gets down on it. Austins 240 is a kinda sleeper because it looks like every other modified 240 with Volk rims and a moderate body kit but that bitch is straight mean.

Ouch...that's like a blow to the *****. But I agree, the tires he is running are definitely not the right ones. Damn though, the Mustang may have lost but the SOB definitely had power...
