[url] You talk on supra forums like you own 10.5 tire and this is your FIRST race. QUOTE]
You talk as though you have the slightest knowledge of racing when in actuality you do not. Nobody here, LS1 or 2JZ that actually races, gives a **** about what you say. You are a nobody in the racing community, always will be, and your meaningless posts will be regarded as so.

Kean, definately had a great time speaking with your whole crew and glad we raced. You definately have that supra hauling ***, but you are wrong about the tree. .000 is a pefect light, not .400. As you can see in this video you went a .431 to my .012. This means we could have ran a 8.66 and still out ran you. I am in no way talking ****, just want to give you a little constructive criticism because I know ya'll do not race at a lot of events and are not used to this heads up racing. Once yall get that car to where yall can stage and leave at the same boost levels, it will make it alot easier to be competitive at these events.

If anyone has any more footage please feel free to post up as it would be cool to see a video from the stands.

Yes i know a .00 is a perfect tree =) I was trying to qualify with a better time and was trying to get the turbo spooled up when we lined up. We had an issue with our timing curve in the race car at the beginning of the day so it had a hard time spooling up. As you can see, our 60' on your time slip is horrible. It wasn't due to spin, it was due to the lack of power.
In eliminations, I pulled a .10 and a .09 reaction in the quarter and semi finals. Not quite as bad as the .8 I pulled against you =) That is something I will definately be working on at future races.
As we talked about after the race, we will be setting the car up so i can concentrate more on the light instead of trying to get the boost right for launch.

yes, you really do.
The car has a real t-56 in it, and that would imply that it is a 6spd car to anyone that thinks logically.
As far as your stock suspension comment, the entire world of drag racing knows that stock suspension means that it stock location mounting point for the LCAs, torque arm, shocks/springs, etc........
non-stock sus. would be ladder bars or aftermarket 4link/tube chassis backhalf setup.

You're beating a dead horse and cutting a falling tree. Supra drivers don't understand organized racing terminologies or most rule books as they rarely engage in it. This goes back to their "stipulation based definitions and rules" Since we i.e. supra drivers have virtually no aftermarket drivetrain parts available to us. You should not be able to use them either thus making your use of them unfair. Riceligic does not understand the idea do run with you brung and hope you brung enough.
Cheers,
Yea the dogbox does not have to use a clutch to shift and also does not have to lift entirely in between gear changes but they do use a clutch to launch. Darin tried out a dogbox in his supra and the case broke on the second run. It had some nice gearing and hopefully if we can get a good one in a stronger case he could go 8.20's or even faster with it. Maybe even get that Viper record.. Still a lot sicker to go 8.50 and 8.40's in a manual car that has to use a clutch to shift. Takes an amazing driver to do that...

Ok guys this isn't the Supra forum, not going to go in circles over clutchs, stock STYLE suspension etc.
