Default Formula vs modded Redline.....(REMATCH)*VID*

So me and this local guy ran twice one night about 6 months ago. Once from a 40mph roll where took off on me by 2-3 cars and i didnt real him in until around 120-130. The second race that night was from a dig, where i palightly pulled about 2-3 cars on him to about 120. Well Ive always said if we go from a 25mph roll it would be a deffient race. So tonight both of us were doing some friendly trash talking to each other at a local hangout spot and decided to go line up again. This time from a 25mph roll, heres what happened.

Also ran from a 30mph roll and i pulled harder there then fromthe 25mph.

Mods are in sig......Redline is decently modded, not sure with what thou.

Ya, now I think about it, the first time me and that guy lined up had to be when I first got the car(1 year ago)because I didn't know 40 was a dead spot for me until right after I raced him. But ya, I never do a 40 roll anymore, like you said, a trailblazer could probably pull me for a bit, lol.

So when we gonna get together and do some racing? I'm still waiting on my rear wheels from greg weld. Right now with the 26" tall tires and the gear I have in the rear my car will top out at around 117mph but I'd still be willing to make a few runs.. If you still got my # give me a ring and we'll set something up.

Sounds about right, you beat him in his dead spot pretty bad two, you could either be in first at 25 and have to shift once you floor it or be at the bottom of second. He is for sure pullied,intake, exhuast, and tuned in some way becuase his gears sounded pretty long like a 7k redline or a tad more. Good kill
