It looked like he just edged you in that video, so with a little tweaking you could have him.

Did you ever consider that maybe not everyone needs to go to the dragstrip to enjoy their cars? Someone can have a 800whp car, but it doesn't mean jack to some people around here if there are E/T's to show for it. I'm all for drag racing, but its not the end all of enjoying a car for everyone.

Of course I do James. But not everyone thinks there cars are the fastest and calls people out who do race. Not everyone posts GTECH times trying to impress people only to be called out on it lol. Not everyone makes excuses when they lose races.

Fair enough, I can appreciate where you're coming from and I agree with what you're saying. For the record Gtech sucks .

On a unrelated note, its really too bad the Big Dawg event didn't quite materialize as originally envisioned because it would be awesome to have all the best cars in the FI in one spot to really separate the men from the boys.

The men have been seperated from the boys, go look at the top 5 or 10 in the drag lists (any of them). I respect those guys. I dont respect dyno sheets.

Dil-get over yourself.

You cant beat a car with 100more whp

You dont track your car

Your not Fast & Furious

You know we will likely never race so you talk crap, its comical to me (like your signature-well yes I do want to find out)...before you get your panties in a wad, I wont say anything else. Enjoy your car.

Bert do us all a favor and get a rustang and live at the dragstrip... I think thats were you belong.

And learn somthing about cars, hp dont mean **** man. It took a 7XX whp supra to beat that z06, if you knew anything logically the 350z needs 100+rwhp to beat that dudes car, to make up for gearing, weight, 7L displacement, na power all the time....... just a couple things you pry just overlooked.

I havent been to the dragstrip in 1 yr LOL

Are you implying you need 7XXwhp to beat 530whp pushing 3125lb's? Wow-your racing with the wrong crowd. I didnt overlook anything you think Ive never raced other fast cars?

If you ever get to the strip thats where we will see if your putting the power to use or not. Until then I bow down to you Dil

edit-btw as far as I know you make 608whp on a DD. Thats easily 650+whp DJ. He did 533whp DJ. You lost that race on that last shift, but what do I know. Try him again when you hit 700whp so you can beat em.

^ again did you forget to read.... the shift was perfect but the car held back and hesitated like a overboost feeling.... BUT I HIT THE SPEED LIMITER BERT.

THATS WHY WERE RUNNING AGAIN from 65-150.... SO THE LIMITER WONT BE A FACTOR

Also my car made 609 rwhp at Sharifs, that was a while ago and his dyno was acting up, I never re dynoed the car so I will soon find out again what hp im running.

Listen closely at the end... you don't even hear my car, in 5th gear i was a nose ahead of him shifted into 6th and hit the limiter and let off right away.

If the man enjoys his car who gives a **** what he runs in the 1/4 mile. I know I dont. 600rwhp is weak....hell 700rwhp is weak in my book. If it doesnt trap 140+ its weak....

I dont give 2 $hits what he runs, I just wanted to see if he had put some times/traps on the boards to analyze if he is using his power well or not. How hard is that to understand?

Hey looked like fun Dil. Nice run. Be careful out there bro. You and Alberto definitely gotta go at it next year at an airstrip. I wish there was a 1/4 mile dragstrip around these parts...
