Good kill, anything can happen on the street. Blowing the tires off isnt really what anyone would call fair, most of us would stop and restart to be fair but he too is the retard to drive around with no tires. Just dont act like that guy, pride comes before the fall.

True, im sure if the guy had traction it would have been a much different story but thats why its run what ya brung. Hooking up is the most important thing because without traction all that power is useless. If he was talking that much **** I def wouldnt have stopped and started again, its his fault he didnt hook and roasted his tires, he should have spent more money on mods (such as a better tire) to help his traction. Good kill and sounds like you have a real nice setup there on your WS6!

Man that would sure **** me off if some one said to me this is outta your league. That is awsome what happened. If the guy could not drive his car he does not deserve a rematch. Dont come lookin for action if you ain't got the traction.

He can afford to do a KB and other mods but cant afford to set the car up correctly to get the power to the ground. He was the dumb azz for acting that way.

Plus calling someone boy or junior is one of the most disrespectful things someone can say.

I guess he wanted to run you on a dyno rather than the street lol. He did get what he deserved, I would have acted the same way if he was talking all that crap. Good kill on the old man.
