So for your info, here are my specs.
Wheels Set up: Weds Kranze Borphes 19x10-4F and 19x11-16 Rears..Only set in USA and second set Weds Kranze ERM 18x10-20F and 18x12-5R.
Engine and Drivetrain: Rev Up Lower Plenum and Plenum Spacer, ACT Stage 2 Clutch, Streetlight Flywheel, NGK One Step Colder Spark plugs, R2C Intake, Berk Test Pipes, OBX Y'pipe, AAM 3" Single Exhaust.
Suspension: Stance GR+ true coil over setup, Hotchkiss Sway bars, SPC Rear Camber Kit and MR brace bar.
I have in-car.....Do you have any track experience (i.e. HPDE, etc)? Not sure how we would get results on track. If you haven't been on track before we won't be in the same run group (may be differing conditions b/w groups). Most direct comparison would probably be just a drag race or auto-x, but I am certainly open to getting a couple transponders and doing it on track.
Track/auto-x I'll be on R/A6's or 710's next year just as an FYI.

Some groups have transponders for rent for $20 a day as well, and all the lap times are cataloged, like here: http://www.speedventures.com/results/Default.aspx

I think to REALLY prove which setup is best it would have to be the SAME driver in both cars (someone who is not involved in the bet). I think the STIG is unemployed. Could ask him if hes not busy?

I don't know squat about litoflow's driving ability, but I'd bet 100:1 that he doesn't have the experience that Mike (03threefiftyz) has, and would be at a clear disadvantage.
Mike, Lito - want me to drive both cars?

Yeah, as soon as I saw that Weapon-R was involved, I am disappoint.

Get something made in Japan like FIC spacers...http://www.more-japan.com/fic-wheel-spacers/ quality means cash. (not just charging a random dollar amount for something that has questionable quality.) but yeah, achieving true flushness shouldn't require a spacer.

Oh btw, I'm not taking sides here or anything, because I am merely an enthusiast, but thought everyone who hasn't seen this might like to check it out:

So this thread went from Hella flush spacers, fast and the furious, a call out, a Spanish conversation... this thread has it all!!!
By the way i do think that spacer does defeat the purpose of hella flush, illest ect, ect. Hella flush is supposed to be crazy offsets with out the help of spacers i think a lot of people who are in to the flush look would agree. I do a admire the look specially after seeing the slammed black z on Work wheels ^^^
ha ha ha no mames el oh el

oh my gawd, I'm forever going to be remembered as the guy that runs funny in this forum... Surprised you still remember that video hahaha.
Whatever, Lito obviously is slightly confused... Sure the Turbonetics setup is a POS, but I call BS on him winning a Single Turbo G35... Either the G35 driver doesn't know how to drive his car AT ALL, or he wasn't trying... or Lito is just bullsh!ting to look cool. The reason why I call you a high school idiot, is because of your 1st post in this thread, about you and your friends fat tires and turbonetics G35... then challenging a bunch of people on the interwebs for a race?? I don't know, that seems pretty high school like to me.
