Maybe he's the guy that figures if he beat you once and doesn't think he can beat you again he won't race you just so he can go home and tell all of his friends that he beat your turbo TC. LOL, who knows though.
I think he was sandbagging me though. He said it was a Stage 2. I walk on Stage 2's so he had something extra I imagine. Then again, I really didn't get set before we took off, so it was a botched launch for me.
Yeah, like I said, I didn't get a good launch, and I've beaten Stage 2's before. Even beat a Stage 2 with my 350z, and you can watch the tC vs the 350z video and see how much faster the tC was just on low boost.
I don't doubt it. The TC is fast that's for sure. And if you know the guy that drove that black SRT-4 you should find him and race him again just to be sure that he could beat you.
It was so long ago, don't even see that many SRT4's hanging out at the spot anymore. Like they all disappeared. Don't think the guy owns the SRT anymore.
Go figure, they're not that reliable or he wised up and got a car that has alot more aftermarket potential. and I saw that guy that said an STI would destroy a TC around a track and I laughed. Because he has no idea how many aftermarket suspension and handling modifications that the TC has available for it. A TC can handle right there with an STI if it has the right suspension setup.
I plan on doing just that next season. Prepping the car for Time Attack. Just in case you were wondering, you can look up Chris Rado, and find his Time Attack videos in their Scion tC. I'm sure you can swallow those words after that.
Yeah, black SRT4 most likely had NOS. I mean COME ON you had so much highway left infront of you, why not do a second race huh?!?! Owell, I wouldn't even worry about it. It is a NEON after all huh ;)
Who knows. No biggie though, because the guy that owned the Black SRT sold it for an 07 Evo 9 MR which I beat in the other video on here....LOL. So, I was vendicated just against a different car that is far superior to the SRT.
why did you wanna race the stage 2 again so badly? he pulled you pretty good im sure the outcome would have been the same a 2nd time.. and i doubt a stage 2 is faster than an sti so why cant you beat it and you beat that sti.. you should video your speedo from like 0-100 or something to prove your fast..
Because I didn't get set like I normally do. That's why I wanted one more shot at it, but he would not run me again. I ran the other cars multiple times, yet him only once. I have video of my speedo, back when the car was on 7lbs of boost. It's from 60-110 though.
Full ZPI exhaust. And a ZPI Red Disc clutch is what it boils down too. No new dyno #'s yet, but I think they are overrated anyway...lol. It's about how you drive it.
cool man thanx i also got a zpi stage 1 i just need the s-pipe and bigger clucth and tune it, after that ill be uploading my vids maybe we can race sometime i live in va.
Wazup man...lol. Yeah, I don't know why he wouldn't run me again. Even told him so whe we got back to the spot, and got the brush off... Oh well, can't win them all I guess...hehee

Could be. But those cars are pretty quick. But then again you never know what the deal actually was so all you can do now is sit there and speculate.

STI is not a drag racing car. Race the STI around a race track and it will destroy the f*ck out of your FWD econobox coupe all day long!

CSUnited14 4 years ago
Then I reckon it's an 06. I don't keep up with the production schedule for Evo's. I just know it was the New model.
