Still blowes my mind why everyone waists there time with roll racing!?!? It should have the name changed to waisting time. To incorperate racing into this rediculous activity is a discrace to the word.

You certainly have a nice car but go race it like it should be not this hiway roll racing ****.

God quite crying!!! You do you and let them do them. Whats it matter if they are dig racing or roll racing. Its still a competition of speed and power. There is not any money riding on it. Just guys having some fun.

I would just rather see your very nice car run like it meant to be. In a race that takes some skill and is entertaining. Not saying I won't race someone on the hiway but I certainly would never plan it.

All 3 cars was bad ***. What happened at 35 secs? Like you sprayed or he didn't. Badass runs. VERY CLOSE. Keep'em coming.

The only way drag racing takes skill, is when the cars have manual transmissions and they have a foot pedal to control the clutch, a stalled automatic is the definition of no skill drag racing.

Nope no spray on either of us. @35 he said he spun a little bit. The rest of the runs were kinda hit and miss with me either missing a gear or him missing a gear. Even in the 3 way runs I missed both times. I'm gonna have to change the fluid in the tranny, and flush out the hydraulic fluid to see if it helps, we'll re-run next week.
