Default How NOT to race an ls4
This guy gives us ls4 owners a bad name..









Terrible launch.
Traction control isnt turned off
Racing on a full tank of gas......
Cars is heavy enough as is, so what do we do? Race with a passenger.

Shouldve beaten that charger no problem

No helmet - should be used regardless of ET.
No seat belt.
One hand on wheel at 12 o'clock.

Even if he did everything right I seriously doubt he "shouldve beaten that charger no problem"

Itd be close, but the chargers weight just holds it back enough for that impala to edge it iut. Then again, comes down to driver mods even tho its auto lol
