Sore loser lost - worst excuse ever

Sore loser lost - worst excuse ever
I have a 1994 Toyota Supra Turbo and I raced a 2002 Trans Am W6 at atco raceway this summer. The first race I had a good launch but towards the end I back off the gas. I did this on purpose to let the TA ower build up his ego and talk all the smack he wanted. The next race I told him, okay this race I'm gonna go all out. He's standing there telling me how I'm gonna lose b/c I don't have a downpipe installed, boost controller installed, no tune and most importantly I didn't put on my Nitto tires. He said he never backed off the gas any one of his races.
Just when it was about to rain we raced down the drag strip and I whopped his ***. I remembered when I was making my pass I looked over. Oh man, I wished I had the look on his face on video. He had this biggest dumbfound look ever. After we got out of our cars it was as if I stole that smile right off this face. He was pissed and called me a douchebag. So I asked "why am I a douchebag". he replied "b/c i tell you everything i've done to my car and you don't tell me anything you did to yours". I replied "What before the race I let you look under my hood and trunk, what else you want to know"?.
Then he made up an excuse. "Oh, my A/C was on". okay what does your AC have to do with this race. I still whopped you.
Then he made up the worst excuse ever. "When we raced there was a big red truck in front of us so I backed off the gas". lamo excuse b/c I remembered making my pass and there was no big red truck in sight. Even if there was a big red truck I should've been the one slowing down since I was in the lead and going much faster then he was. My car was trapping at 120 MPH when he was only doing 109.
Come on, I think that is the worst excuse ever. How many times do you go drag racing and when you cross the 1/4 mile mark there was another car in your way? LOL.
At least come up with a better excuse like, oh, i missed 7th gear or oh, I forgot to fill up my NOS bottle.
What was the worst excuse you ever heard?

Man sounds like u got a pretty killer supra there... One o the VERY few jap cars I like lol whats do u have done to it... What was ur et? That is a pretty lame excuse i guess... Now u guys raced at the track or on the street? Cant imagine a truck at the end of the strip just being there lol.. How about " I was on a full tank of gas" lol

i'm stock except for an air intake and exhaust. i'm not sure what the et was. he lost b/c he has a manual transmission and didn't know how to drive that thing. he dumped close to $20k into his car but forgot to upgrade the transmission to a automatic.
LOL, I think I had a full tank of gas sounds alot better.

i mean im not questioning that you beat him im just questioning the circumstances, ive been in a stock supra and it pulls decently from a roll but it is a downright pig from a stop or low low roll. wouldnt happen to be any video for this race would there?
lol at 12s at 800hp. couldnt be more right, nothing like running constant 12.50s at 145mph with 2.3 60's( but as long as its making 1000+rwhp its still legit)

I played with one of them 800hp supras on the street once. It had a full cage and slicks and I just wanted to see it go so we did a full short pulls 20 to 80mph ish. I would pull a few lengths on him everytime. It was disappointing. about a month later I see him racing up at MIR. He broke it twice on the line and the other two runs he made were both 150+mph yea couldn’t get better then a 12.1

Yeah pretty much. I can scan a copy of the time slip. We were racing for ET. If I'm correct he dumped close to $18k in his t/a I remember he did engine work, exhaust and suspension upgrades for close to $10k then the follower summer or 2 summers later he did more engine work and got a 12 bolt rear end b/c he said his car has too much power for the 10 bolt rear end. I'm not exactly sure what kind of engine work but I think he got cams, upgrade some kind of springs so that it revs higher, port/polish and a tune. He got it dynoed and pushed close to 398 HP to the wheels.
Yeah you would imagine with close to $18k of mods he'd be running low 11's. but no. Well, believe it or not before he upgrade his tires he was running 13's. I told him to get Nitto DRs and after he did he ran high 12's. He was so happy that day until I whopped his ***.
You guys here know T/A's more then I do. with 398HP and high 12's. It has to be the driver. My Supra is putting out way less HP to the wheels (320HP) and it's running much faster on street tires.
I'm not talking bad about T/A's. They are great cars WITH the RIGHT DRIVER.

You decide to post this story out of the blue for no reason?
Sorry, I asked my buddy how an exhaust/intake Supra without any sort of tune or increase in boost would do and he said the car would be lucky to turn mid 12's.
You claim in the first race you were able to get off the gas at the end and let him pass you. What, was this guy running 14's with 15k in the car and 555rs? I suppose it's possible, but it's not worth mentioning.
You can't blame anyone for thinking your story was complete BS, unless they were some supra nutswingers.

Well then I guess I got lucky that time. BTW, I was wrong he was trapping 112 all night and I trapped 117.
