Default Calling out POWELL...

hey buddy..i heard your car is running great and you're a bit out of my league now but i know you still would like to run a supra...Well, the guys that the built part of my supra will be at the clash this weekend...How about a little grudge match????


i have a new set up in my supra too, but i dont think it will be fast enough for you unless i drop alot of weight...(like 500lbs)

We don't fit into any class at Clash (Damn 'W' tire), and I don't think Freddy will let us show up just to race you. Maybe next weekend?

Duy I'm not going to run Kean Supra. That car has been a 8.4x. I have been ONE single 8.9 pass. Unlike these guys I dont have all the money in the world to play with to build what I want. We did all this **** in my garage without a lift, and without any big machines.. Its taken us since June to do all this and Im just FINALLY getting to make my first passes. I'm glad Keans car hauls *** and I wish him the best of luck racing this weekend, but I am not match for that car. Maybe when we get some test and tune down maybe I can run him 1/8th mile, but until then I'm not in his league. Now if Mike Pabon and Edgar are interested maybe he could run the black Formula. Sounds like more of a fair race to me. Well 1/8th mile of course, damn Supra gets it on the big end.

Let me get this right. Powell posts his times proudly (as he should) and now sc300 calls him out?

It's real easy to set up a race when you know what your opponent is running.

How about an 1/8 mile race?

1/8 mile is OK too....as a matter of fact bring any of the guys mentioned above..Im not trying to stir up ****..just trying to get some good grudge matches for the race..Im actually sponsoring the import part of the Clash, so im just trying to get some people out there to watch...

Chris, I might even line it up against you if my car is running like it should...but i want to run a full 1/4 mile against you..

i already have a match race against Ben (saleen 91), but only for the 1/8...i cant make more than one 1/4 mile pass since i still dont ahve a cage..

I think it would be fun to show up and grudge race some Supras. As long as they're half-fair races. LOL.
