This thread was not started to engage in "street racing" talk.

OP was OBVIOUSLY suggesting wins/losses at the track, and to whom you've won/lost.

Please keep this thread on it's intended course...

I've passed lots of faster cars on track days as a result of good instruction and driving habits. I've seen lots of fast cars in which the driver didn't follow a good line and as a result had to slow for turns allowing me to catch up to them. It's more about how you drive than how much HP you have. That's why we sing the mantra "seat time".

I've beaten some, lost to some. I have yet to be beat off the line, though.

I have beaten an open-wheeled race car down the famous corkscrew at Laguna Seca:



I have lost to a 72' Datsun 240Z and a supercharged C5 Corvette.

I have also lost to this SuperCup Porsche 911:



Here we are dicing it up on the track together:

on the AutoX course (cant afford an actual track day ) i've beaten my friends pretty stock 6.0 GTO. But consistantly lose to my other friends modded 2005 mustang GT. he has full FR500 susp, swapped the FR progressive springs for HR linear rates, removed interior for two corbeaus, Hurst short shifter, FR intake, long tube headers, and he's running 295 nito NT05s at all 4 corners, with a decent tune. like 370hp.

I have a stillen y-pipe and a megan drift spec single. 255/45 R tires and 235/50 F.

I'm assuming we're all talking about at the track or at an event. Not on the road right? Cuz streetracing threads arent allowed.

Jeep SRT8. Got my *** handed to me, not even close...

Some redneck kid in a beater F350 pulled up next to me at a stop light wanting to race. He though he was all badass, I showed him otherwise.
