You gotta love that instant power from the supercharger/bottle though. I really miss that in my 7 sometimes.

WOW

thats a BIIIIGG difference between the first and second runs..were you rolling from the same speed in both races?

he was prob running 100 shot, that was a big difference..that or he wasnt even racing in the first run..

but i love how the FD's play catch up in the 3rd/4th gear

Haha, that RSX got bitch slapped not just once, but twice! You surely destroyed that guy's ego.

What is there to say?

The -7- CAN'T lose!

can't see too well but glad you won. Those RSX's can be real fast if done right. we have one at the shop. but turbo charged with a 60-1 fully built bottom end etc..put down 550hp!

Damn nice kills Dave! That things take off was insane. We need to get together sometime a chill or cruise, work owns me but the weekend is finally here. I got my boost controller in this week and with the little bit of time i had between waking up and going to work i finally got it installed. Just need to hook up the power and ground and adjust the settings( i took some pix so i'm thinking about making illustrated how-too.) damn it's late(early). I gotta hit the sack, give me a buzz man, i'm usually awake by 2

Wow that was a huge difference the second time off. He must have gotten that sinking feeling as you went past him the second time around.

Nice kills !!

you should brake boost when you race from a roll. Your car would launch just as hard or even harder then the RSX. Reason it looks worse then it is, is because you had to wait for your turbo to spool then you reeled him in and past him. If you brake boost, you don't have to wait for your turbo to spool.
