It's called hypocrisy.
It runs very deep through this section.

GT500 lost that race before it started....if you have 800+rwhp and you show up without slicks then you didnt plan on winning.

the higher in speed the evo goes, the shorter the race is going to be for the evo...awd doesnt like high speed runs too much not to mention we run outta gear fast...155 is pretty much as far as you wanna take an evo...

It said "you can clearly see who the winner is"..WTF? Ahhh. NO

If you watch the video, all you can see is the GT500 breaking the tires loose. That is all I can see. Now if want to call that a lose becuase of traction than I would have to agree. However, does not mean you are faster.


+1 for gay video vote.

What does being AWD have to do with high speed runs?

BUddy has had his 650whp EVO to over 170mph. I know cause he passed me when I was doing about 140 like i was sitting still in my G8.

Seems to me like you are getting a little butt hurt over the Mustang losing!! I saw 2 different times the Mustang clearly lost.. If we have a $1000.00 on a street race and you lose because of traction issues should you have to pay me or do you feel it wasn't fair because you lost traction?

Everyone knows AWDs are only 0-60 cars and have no top end!
