It's no wonder you lost, the time you and your buddy flipped me off and sped away like you two were late for a date, you smacked the rev limiter for a good second on every shift. Nice car but a few points of interest you might consider: 1) Street racing is bad. Mmmmmk? 2) Flipping off a total stranger WHO LIVES IN YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD is bad form. 3) While doing the prior, maybe try and atleast shift like that car deserves to be shifted.


No harm no foul this time but who knows if a kid on a bicycle on Iriquios rd might decide to jump out in front of you....just sayin.

You both have 1 post? Do you follow each other on the internetz?
Also 540hp in a 2850lb car is bound to be quicker than a 540hp 3800lb car.
ALSO what the above guy who follows you around said.

Nope. Don't follow anyone. Just got a tip that he turned up. Like I said, nice car, but don't be a tool.

To answer your question, you'd pretty much have to be a tard not to pick up a blower setup for $2000! Even if you don't use it you can sell it for more than DOUBLE that! **** it! Buy it and sell it and go turbo for about another grand or 2 out of pocket if you and or someone you know can do it for $6000 or less. You'll even the playing field and then some!! LOL
