What is this 60 - 130 "roll" ****. What are you doing joining the ricer club way of racing, lol? Just razzin ya!
LOL...aight Renis...Goliad is this weekend. Leaving bright and early sat morn. Wanna go? Got room in the truck for you and Brandon. I decided to give the 60-130 event a try as it's a bench mark for alot of exotics. Just seeing if the ole' Z could compare to those $200K+ jobbers along with some other "tweeked" rides. Found out I need some better rubber down at the other end of the track...was fun though. Will do it again when the weather cools and get some better tires.

BTW... Thats for using my name and "ricer" in the same sentence...sack-o-nutzzz...

i was the only ricer out there..and i bet i will beat any car that is on 18" drag radials at this event!!!!!!!!!!! Peter was on 15 inch drag radials..which is a big difference..

btw...good run on the highways DJ..i didnt want to race you at first because i was on pump gas and was on empty so i didnt stay in it long..thats why i had to make a pit stop to get more gas..i make around 600hp on pump so your car rolled out hard because you still beat me!!!!!!!!!! too bad you didnt get a chance you run me at full power...

5.7 was my 60-130 time!

Hey Duy...you by far have one of the fasted Supra's on 18" DR's I've ever seen......gotta love how those NOS/Turbo/Auto's hit 'soft' and keep pullin'...!! I think you may have had Peters number if you were on the similar tires. I would have loved to seen a side by side on that one...!! With you on just boost no NOS I might have a chance...good to see ya. If your headin' down to the Texas Mile with Tommy I'll see ya there...

Hey guys, Peter here! Thanks Dennis for coming to the event, glad to have a badass Z represent. For those of you that don't know, the 60-130 thing originated with Motor Trend and Car & Driver as they started publishing the 60-130 times of all of the exotic cars they tested (amongst others). The Porsche community caught on just as the DRIFTBOX started becoming popular and well, the rest is history.

The track did in fact suck and it didn't help that we had to keep stopping b/c it would sprinkle and they dry up... I could not even hook 800 rwhp that day which is disappointing b/c I put a lot of heat into those tires. In any event, we will be back out there on 10/27 and I hope to see some of you there!

Dennis, FYI, Duy and I have raced before:

mmiller - I have a Supra but am just a car guy, I love all cars...the Supra just happens to be my ride of choice.

SSilver - the TT Viper was indeed a bad bitch, but it was time to see her go. I could not take the crap quality of the car, it just bothered me A LOT. Having said that, it was the fastest thing I've ever been in, period.

sc300 - DUY!!!!!!!!!! Dig? F-it, let's roll! hahhaah On another note brotha, you DAMN BETTER BELIEVE I was shitting my pants on the highway on the way home. Black/Black 98 with 9k original miles? Yea, I was scared, no shame in my game!

H/C - thanks!

Peter
