So you won? I seen you got him off line pretty good. Did he make it up or stay behind?

And now for the real question...will your car idle on it's own or do you have to keep annoyingly revving it like that so it stays running?? I was ready to put a pistol in my mouth listening to that for almost 4 minutes. Sweet IROC though.

FWD or AWD?

Sounds like your car needs a tune for its partial throttle map.

14 second race? You have no clue about cars do you? A car of this caliber can easily run 9's!!

Do a search buddy and you will find similar setupto his car that will run about the same.. Talons car is no joke. I for one can comfirm this cause I have raced him with my car.. Plus being an AWD car it will leave just as hard on the street as it will at the track..

Don't forget that the Talon broke up about half track and he had to lift.

no joke, you're right ... no joke when it comes to maintenance on those things. They always break... but on a serious note, they are seriously no joke if done right

No one was disrespecting the car , just bitching about the long video with the hard to figure out ending.Clearly the op isnt the one who fimed it, but it would have been nice to cut to the race and clearly see the outcome. Sure the dude was filming from a safe spot but damn even had someone walk in front right as the car launched . Not hating on the cars (both hauled *** for sure ) just would like to see a clear view of there performance !

Here you go.. like I said before, something happened with the Camaro so the Talon took home the win and the money.
