But watch your own second video again. The only point in which he pulled on you was when you were shifting. When you were in gear and ON power, you actually seemed to pull HIM. In fact I think it would not even be a fair race if he was off spray.
I see your point BUT,
I don't like the idea of having someone de-tune their car for me to beat him.
If he's faster than me, he's faster than me.
I don't get butt hurt about losing...

Yeah, I wasn't slamming the gears but it was unnecessary.
His nitrous is a progressive system, so once it hits 100% duty cycle, he would eventually catch me.
That's why, the instant he passed me, I let off.

There's ALWAYS someone that's faster than me and I know it.

Thanks Tommy.

I trap 131mph when I can't hook at all.
And 127mph when I can hook a little bit.

I haven't had a chance to lower the tire pressure yet.
I drive my car at least 2 hrs to the nearest track and I don't have a trailer if it breaks.
Tire pressure is never lower than 14.5psi...My average short times are 1.7-1.8sec.

I'm certain I told you in a pm...oh well.
Anyways, why don't you just wait for summer blend.
It seems like a waste...not like your going to be racing in the winter anyways.
That's a long *** drive bro.
