I know I can hang with your car with YOU driving.

Bet I would crush you on the hwy.

I would hope so since it's nothing but a dyno race with anything under 800rw car. Doesn't take any skill for a sub-800rw car roll race. Which is a good thing for you. lol

Just wait till I get some slicks and some seat time. Don't worry I'll be running the times I should.

Yup. You'll get it with more time. Obviously the car has some good times in it with a competent driver like Clint. The MPH says a lot at 119 with Clint driving and 114 with you. You just need some practice to learn the car and not be nervous with it. You and I would be a good race right now.

I ran 117mph

I know, but you were telling us all how you were a driving mofo come to find out you don't even know how to do a proper burn out. Standing on the rev-limiter in 1st gear?! Dude, you're lucky you didn't hurt the motor in the car. Thankfully you didn't seem to hurt it and were able to get it out of limp mode to make some more passes. It's definitely a quick car, just not with you driving it right now.

Proper burnout = heel/toe in 2nd gear.

So did I with nothing more than a hpipe and a tune on fully inflated street tires.

Not once did I say I was great track driver since I haven't been to the track over ten years. On the street I think I'm a lot better driver. Nic ran a 12.6 last night but when him and I raced on the hwy I know I beat him by more then .3. Like I said I need more seat time at the track.

And I'm talking about just on motor I would crush you.

In theory you should, sure. I'd agree with that since you make like 80rw more than I do. But what I was saying that roll racing anything under the 800rw power level doesn't take a lot of skill. Above that is a different story though and take some skill when you get to big power levels.

But I'll run you. 1st gear roll from like 10-15mph and you have to put your street tires back on to be fair.

Those were my street tires I was running last night.

I can understand why you're backpeddling a lil bit right now. I'm not going to bust your balls about it too much and I'm just keeping your honest. You're eating some crow right now and I'm sure it doesn't taste all that great but you have to expect it abit after your TONS of smack talking. You did say to all of us that you were a badass driver and wouldn't have any problems etc etc etc after you were busting my balls about missing fourth.

Nick has been faster than a 12.6. Him and I were both running faster than that last time out.

And of course you think you're a better street driver. There is nothing to tell you otherwise like a time slip. Everyone's car feels faster on the street. lol.

You don't have your 20's anymore? You running the bigs/littles full time?

Not back peddling one bit. I've always said I would need practice and seat time at the track. We just got the car running like it should NA. I knew I wasn't going to do great at the track my first go around. But I know I will get better.

And yes I sold my 20's to another member and I wouldn't consider 17X7 littles and 305's bigs since people on running those anyways.
