Default 98 H/C Z28 vs SRT-4 vs RB25 Turbo 240 w/ meth(videos**)

Playas:

SRT-4-ported head and intake, aftermarket cai, exhaust,fmic(est. 300hp untuned)

RB-25 240-fully built motor, big turbo, meth(est. 400+hp)

Me(Z28-camera car)-stage 2 5.3 heads, F13 cam, 4.10s, 3800lb race weight

Tamed the TOTD, then went for a car meet. I was supposed to run a much higher hp srt-4, but he never showed(which is actually fortunate for me, because I had skinny drift tires on that would have done nothing but spin on nitrous).. so I ran these guys on motor. Its hard to see whats going on, so I'll interpret..In the teaser video, to the right of me is the 240, when we race, I give him and the srt4 the hit. I'm ready immediately, so thats why it looks like I got the jump.
The 240 stayed right with me from 60-110. He was maybe a car and a half back to the right of me. The car behind him was another chase car, which deceivingly looks like the 240 fading. The srt4 was to the left of me and naturally got trained, but these races were just for fun as we were all heading to another meet. The guy in the 240 was running meth, but wasnt tuned for it, so he blew off his cai and prolly would have had me if it had been tuned for meth.
Was bummed about not getting to run the faster srt4, a supercharged 350Z, and an RB-30 240, but got atleast one good run in and finally got one on video for you guys..wish I would have got some footage drifting around the TOTD, but I was too busy enjoying it and she was too busy holding on..lol

Nice run. Surprised you didnt get any video of the drifting though! Your lady should have stayed out of the car to video it IMO. Just gotta train her better. lol

I gotta check with killboy.com I think, as they were filming as we were drifting around a few turns..they may have caught atleast a pic or two if not some video. I sprung the video duty on her at the last minute so she wasn't even used to my phone. Didn't really know I'd be racing that night

slow is always relative..considering I had 100+ hp on the one I was racing, most would deem him slow..but he's prolly quicker or as quick as most "fast" stock cars, which is also relative. The two srt-4s I could have raced that night would have prolly made me look slow considering I was on skinny hard tires that I had mounted up earlier to play around on the dragon..Luckily we went from a 60 roll, which on motor hooks pretty well..nitrous would have been a different story..would have needed a 4th gear roll speed for traction then

I actually gave them the hit on 3 honks but the video didn't start recording till I started pulling so it looks like I jumped
