You don't get a "rolling start" at a race track!! I'm sure that 01 doesn't mean to post street racing on a Drag Racing Section

If you're going to spray and he is not, I'd have to say you have the advantage. BUT anything can happen. Make it best 2 out of 3 at the track. That way you can adjust when you turn on the nitrous at the TRACK. $400 is not pocket change IMO.

Agreed on above, but don't listen to Dave on pocket change. Look at this sig!

$400 is pocket change, but losing a grudge race will haunt you until you die. As long as you don't spin to hard, the spray should walk him.

I'd be careful... I'm gonna guess that he's hiding something from you. noone needs 2 or 3 weeks when their car is running.... people that need time like that are probably bought something, it's on the way there, and need some time to install it.

I know too many people that street race, and I can guarintee, 2 to 3 weeks = something getting done to the car.
