Was it just me or did I just see absolutely nothing. That was not a race. I saw two cars screwing around on the highway.
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.

You must not get out and race much....

560whp will get you there without a problem. My DSM makes over 100whp less and has no problem pulling to 150. I'm sure it would do 170+ but i'm not planning to get there any time soon. 150 in a rattling old car with no ABS and brake bias issues is fast enough for me.

I'm a DSMer, i was just joking about the misconception about AWD and top end.

Odarable, I would hope you got something more than just a H/C/I fbody because that red evo is a damn scary beast.
Might be finishing my build this weekend. Need a couple weeks to break it in depending on what bugs we run into. I still would love to line em up when the time comes. get some vids and drink some beers (post race of course)

Hey man my old H/C/I setup ran damn good for what it was. 10.90@123mph on the motor and low 10's @131mph on the spray. This might now be enough to handle his Evo but that engine went
I have a whole new setup now baby.. Almost ready for the streets and I'm sure it would do just fine against his Evo without the spray..

Couple bad *** cars right there.
Wow...butt hurt right quick. Surely looked like the Mustang got its *** handed to him. Even if he was spinning, maybe he should do something about that so he doesn't get his *** kicked so bad. Would it have been a lot closer if he weren't spinning, yep, but it wasn't. I remember racing my Fox back in the day and if I accidentally lit-up my tires off the line and got smoked, then I certainly lost the race my good man.
