turns out the fox was on a low bottle but didn't use that as an excuse and took the loss

im assuming the guy in the fox didnt know how to drive. I honestly was expecting the fox to win due to its significant weight advantage. Wasnt even close. Nice cars though

he should have used it as an excuse...I assume you mean low bottle pressure which will make a difference...but then again he should have checked before racing..all part of the game

good runs, didnt seem like bottle pressure to me, the first punch he hung right with you and everytime he shifted he lost ground considerably, im saying he cant drive to save his life. if it was low bottle pressure you would have rolled hard from the get go not just when he first shifted.

Both races were from a roll, and I didn't hear a missed shift? So driver error kinna goes out the window with me. Looks like the Camaro was the faster car, that's all.

couldnt be true. there is ALWAYS a reason why the loser lost, and it could not be as simple as that.

You dont have to completely miss a shift to lose. If when you go to shift the other car takes damn near a car length before your in it again.... Buy an auto.

Camaro pulled hard and came out prepared. Props to him

Once again, the advantages of having an auto.

That's why as soon as my wrist is healed and I can go back to work, I'm converting my new car.

Manuals definitely aren't for the shift impaired. They are supposed to have the advantage in a roll race. That's where I rape auto cars about 99.999% of the time.

I dont think the win has anything to do with the transmission, the auto vs manual argument is gay and pointless. Dyno or track numbers would help explain it alot more.
