theres two videos. The first one you hear my car launch and thats it, all you hear is the v8 in that video.

the second video was alittle further down the road so youll hear the rotary because its ahead and approaching the camera first. you dont hear the v8 at all there until it passes the camera.

DJ i was wondering why i didn't hear my "F*** that V8 sh**" comment in the vid.

dont take it the wrong way, i actually like your car a lot, and always bet with you when the pot has room, but when you go up against a rotary i gotta support the home team.

to be honest, i was actually thinking this race was gonna be closer than it was, and before the run i thought that if you ran him on motor you would have took the win.

i have watched your car very closely on nassau and i can tell you withought a doubt, it leaves harder on the motor than the bottle. i've never seen you spray the car and hook. even against the supercharged N20 SS you were fishtailing in 3rd gear!

the car is real strong on the motor, but i dont think it has the suspension/tire for the spray yet.


and as far as me and you go, we boys so i dont mind showing you what 640rwhp from a 2 rotor looks like from behind for free.
problem is, i have a stock rear in the car now and its a loaner so i can't run with it. give me a lil bit to get something stronger in there and we can have some fun.

yea i was just playin roan, i have no problem keepin it friendly with you, ur cool people...on my 2nd stage our hp is very similar so it should be a nice run :p

-i agree with you and about leaving on spray so far its 50/50 either i leave HARDDD or i spin..lately ive been spinning but i just got some new slicks so iam gonna give it another go. Me and you are the same we have the wrong suspension for what we wanna do but we try to make it work anyways lol.

-If i could re-do it i would run ant on motor just for the fact that having more hp did more harm then good... and about the run....well it was a run 4 fun..... i lost and dont make excuses, but without talking ****........my confidence hasn't changed 1 bit :-D

p.s- me and heavy's dsm weds night, by the airport he gets 2cars, pot should be around 2-3k on each side so there should be room on myside as long as you get 2 me early in the nite

So Roan let me get this right.. You think his car is enough to take me on motor alone? Maybe we should set that up and you can put your money in Djs pot and well see what happens. lol.

iam pretty sure all he's saying is the car that spun less won(thats the way i see it)...if i was off the bottle maybe i would of had a easier time hooking up....and while your car is very fast the race would come dwn to the same thing as last time...whoever spins less will win, your car trapped 4mph more then mine(with me on motor) so i dont think its impossible to say that if i was on motor and dead hooked, and you spun off the line id have a good chance 2 win......but i dont like all this theoretical talk so w.e

nobody is saying its impossible but I wouldnt use a "what if" to judge who would be faster.

I hope you guys saw the tire marks on the street.. we both spun real bad but both got traction at the same time. The marks are practically the same length and mine being much darker almost as if i was doing a burnout thats how bad I spun in first. I even left marks in 3rd gear.. I didnt see any from your car.

Thanks for the offer dj but i need a new set no point for me now.. But thats a great price ill spread the word.

ant, dj got it right, i wasn't commenting on who's car is fastest or best, its just that i knew it was gonna be a spinfest and the car that hooks would have the advantage.

so I guess I hooked and thats why I won? lol.. this is funny.. we both spun period nobody hooked.. what advantage?

and Dj it was YOUR idea to run there cause you said there was more rubber down.. You knew i wanted to go to edison where we would have had more traction you didnt want to.

and if am that confident? about what racing you on motor? I think you know better or you would have raced me on motor that night. If YOUR that confident we can do that for money anytime. U say u want to keep it friendly but your the one bringing up money not me.

It's funny when a 500+HP Rotary runs a stock LS1 with a 150 shot and wins by 1 car. WTF Races one with the same HP and then see who wins.
