Regardless of what they're capable of, that's what happened.
You really need to stop reading into things so much. I never questioned what happened. I never even came close to trying to speculate what "should" have happened. I simply stated facts. These facts paint a picture as to what the OP was up against, which also shed some light on how well he did in this race. That is all.

Sent the video he got the hit.. His passenger did the flash light thing and distracted me but he didn't pull that hard.. It's Crappy quality because the darn I-phone. I have the 3gs and things look farther away then they appear but he was only about 2.5 cars in front of me through most the race. 408 gutted camaro with 4.10s and he has spray but didn't run it. His car was no doubt faster. Well that was my first street loss to a car. Keep in mind This car at that time only had cai, z06 manifolds and cats un-tuned....made 368 rwhp and 363 rwtq..

I agree. 10.9 on the bottle is terrible.

That 408 I'm sure he was spraying during the 10.9 pass.. He wont post up his fastest runs idk why... I highly doubt he was running the 150 shot he has He convert it to auto awhile ago though
