Then theres some cocky people who think their cars are the fastest things on the planet who need to be taught a lesson... like this guy with a 310whp 1800lb turbo rabbit.

You end the race when someone is just losing too badly (usually around 140-160) or if its neck and neck until someone shuts down.
But to each their own![Cheers!!](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies/LS1Tech/gr_cheers.gif)

This way there is no shutting down and claiming victory after a single gear!!! Most of the time you run the full race no matter what... but sometimes if I am destroying someone... like this 450whp cobra.... then I will shut it down so I don't embarrass the guy. This race turned out to be even more embarrassing then it would've been if I had stayed in the throttle... because he stayed in it and I still won the race without putting my car in 5th gear!!!

A stop, the only way to race, unless you are racing an awd, than a low roll is better. A stop or a low roll is the only way i can keep up with an ls1, those bi ches are fast past the 1/8 mile, from a roll the ls1 can fly

In street racing, it shouldn't ******* matter. It's nothing official, there's no "street prep". Like they say "Run what you brung". Besides, most street encounters happen on th freeway.

most of my races happen on the highway on the way to somewhere. I'll race from anywhere. Usually i like first gear rolls at 40mph, and 2nd from 65mph...those are the best for me. I don't mind racing from a dig as long as its a car that is like mine...slow, street tires. It sucks knowing that you're going to get ruined because your car doesn't work lol.
