Default Who went to Beach Sat??

Who all went out to Beach last night Sat? I was out there and had some good races.. I ran two 03-04 Cobras, beat both of them pretty bad on the hwy, ran a black turbo Subra and he kicked my ***.. I stayed with him in 2nd and 3rd gear but after that he left me like I was standing there.. I ran another Mach1 out there, we were suppost to run motor to motor, but he sprayed on me the first time and beat me because I was N/A, so the 2nd time we ran spray to spray and I pulled him pretty good, cool guy and nice car. I ran one of his friends in a Orange SS, I forgot what mods he had but he had a cam I think and he said a 150 shot and we ran bottle to bottle and both of us were neck and neck the whole race from 1st gear to 4th..That was a bad *** race and I didn't even know he was spraying me till he told me that he did.. He has it on video so maybe he will post it up if he see's this.. To bad the cops came and screwed that all up.. We will do it again next week.

Sounds like it was fun Dan. Your car does haul ***!!

I think I need to start driving to Dallas to hang out with you!! I went to Sulphur Springs last night but only found 1 05 GT willing to play.

Needless to say, he wasn't much competition for my car.

I let him get one car out on purpose and just blew by him like he was sitting still!!LOL Pulled about 3-4 cars on him to 100 from about 50.

He wouldn't even stop afterwards, just flew on bye and was gone.

Later friend,

Perry

Hey Dan was it a older guy driving that black Supra? Name is Ross.

He is the only guy I can think of with a black Supra that is always at Beach. And yes it fast as hell.

I was on race gas that night. I was talking to one of the owners friends and he says its has a t72 w/built motor.

Link when I raced him

Dan it seems like your car dips way too much in the front when you shift. I dont know if your front struts are too soft or you are shifting slow

They are the stock struts so they might be a little to soft.. I haven't done any thing to the front suspension yet.. But I do need to..

Yeah that black one is sick. It was a good race between me and him from the roll we did. I believe it was a 45mph. I dont remember.

You should see his other one he has. He also has a white one. That one is even sicker. Its a auto. I dont think its as quick as his block one on the highway but from a dig its real wicked.
