Dragged and Auto X'd my FC today (vids)

And considering its built as a drift car )and thats the only way I know how to drive, and im not even that good at that), it didnt do too bad, lol.

Awful 60ft times on the strip due to no grip and no launching skills, 2sec at best, meaning low 12s
But a best terminal speed of 119.5mph (all were around 118-119mph), which I think is good going for a little T04E 57trim isnt it?

Couple of vids of the AutoX/Sprint

I love how every time i see a supra it is said to be either 750 or 1200 hp. same numbers everytime. and if that was 700 hp that guy cant drive. And wow, you need to work on those launches

He has a dyno sheet, its 750@fly. Did Best of about 125mph terminals and must weigh 1.5ton, you do the math and decide what you want.

And nah, dont need to work on them, as drag racing is boring so wont be doing any more. But trust me, its much harder to launch a FC set up for drifting running 23psi boost than it is a lightly modded T2 with a 12in sub and big amp in the back
Whats your best 60ft time then?

2.2 with a virtually stock car

theres no doubt your car is fast. You just aren't. And ya drag is boring thats why you just go to the track to get a time on your car, once you know your time theres no point in goin back, but your never gonna know what the car runs with launches like that. Maybe its because i have no sound on my computer

I love the car! But drag racing is not boring! Around here we have street legal drags with armdrops and it is very fun.

no drag racing is boring. A couple of your buddies following behind you flying on some crazy twisted backroads, with no other cars, on a slighty crisp 2am run, watching your rpm needle dance and the sound of the engine matched with the hks ssq barking through the trees and tunnels is what our cars are designed for.

R.O.D- There is no BOV on the car at all, thats why it makes that noise

And mine were 2sec dead with serious traction issues till 3rd, and a 12.4 overall with about 300ATW, and you bitching to ME and slagging off my driving, lol? Yeah good stuff, lol.

I dont mind about ET, I use the car for twisty roads, tracks, and going sideways, stuff that is exciting rather than straight line stuff. Thats the 2nd time ive ever taken a car down the strip in my life actually, the time before that was about 10yrs ago, lol.

All I cared about was the terminal speed to get a gauge on the cars in comparison to others, and 119.5mph from a little T04E 57trim was good enough for me.

If your running 300 atw then it is no problem getting traction, thats alot but not that much. I know of an fc running 446 atw and he gets traction just fine with street tires. You should be running about 11.90-12.00 with 300 hp at the wheels. On top of that im sure your car is gutted so maybe a little faster.
