Default John Jett Calls Out A Nova

I just read on a local drag racing website that John Jett has called out a gold nova that they call Goldrush! Now, this nova is no joke, i have personally seen him run 9's all the time at the local dragstrip. Also, everyone was saying not to accept the challenge cuz John's just a *** or whatnot but the nova has accepted his challenge and told John to bring some cash along with him too!!! We'll see where it goes from here...

not sure if this is the right place to put this but if it needs to be moved, then go ahead.

LMAO, that kid is a tool. A 9 second 03/4 cobra on the street (even if it has solid rear) is not going to hook like a car that's set up for drag racing.

WHOOOOOOOOOPS. Did I say a 9 second cobra??? I meant a car that has 800rwhp and can't get out of the 12's!

He'll lose, and I hope he brings lots of cash for the other crew!

Is this the same *** that was called out by the Z28 and he didn't want to do nothing? I do hope the other crew get rich off of him.

I think this John character is just trying to make another big fuss as usual, but hey what do i know. you never know though, maybe he's serious this time or just really stupid for picking on a 9 sec. nova.

Someone better bring a camera when this goes down. That is pretty sad when you have a 800+rwhp car and can't even break into 11s

****, even C&D, R&T, and motortrend can get 600hp cars into the 11s. well, sometimes.

off topic, I saw the most hilarious thing today, msn carpoint (or was it edmunds? bah whichever) has the ls1 trans am running a 14.4 quartermile at 104 mph, with a zero-sixty of 6.1 seconds. I'm not sure how I could possibly run a 14.4 quartermile in my car without purposely driving into the waterbox and then spinning as long as possible. Seriously, if the car you're testing spins tires for the first 4 seconds, maybe you should try a second run? As for the 0-60... maybe they had the seat too far back and couldn't press the pedal all the way down?

I can't believe how much **** this John guy talks, and then doesn't go through with anything!!! Someone needs to just beat the hell outta him. Forget racing him, smack him around until he understands why so many people dislike his trash talking @$$!!! Just my $.02

I'm probably going to get flamed but, this isn't the 03preadator guy is it? Just a wild guess.

Belive me. Someone is already working on this.... You don't make Hispanic racial remarks/comments on a local board where 95% of the population is Hispanic. Specialy when many people know where he lives.

I was just thinking. Cameras better not be present if this race goes down. You'll probably hear from is mouth "Turn the camera off" or the always cool "Get outta the car". I would seriously pay thru paypal for a video of someone beating the **** out of this **** taking fudgepacker, no offense if there are any gay members on here.

Um, I think the car is still in the mid 700's rwhp level guys. Its amazing how the car jumped to "800rwhp" then "800+rwhp" all in one post.
