You are so dramatic. You just said you knew the guy. Whos to say you two didn't plan this out? Its not just me saying the Mustang didn't make 537rwhp. Oh and why do you keep saying its a boat? Do you know how much the car weighs?
And why is he reving a stroked/cammed/headed 03 Cobra motor to only 6,000rpms?
do you really think i planned this out....? Yes your right thats what i did. I wanted approval so badly of the ls1tech fan base that i decided to stage a race of me winning and get it on video. This is all i care about. I spend thousands upon thousands of dollars building cars so that i can post videos online to get approval from people i will never meet. Are you serious? Give me a break! The saleen is a 3800 pound race weight with the driver who weighs 250. The passenger also weighed 250. Im sure you can do the math..... anything weighing close to or over 4000 pounds is what i refer to as a "boat". As far as why he is reving to 6k.... i dont know... driver error perhaps.

honesty.... i was about to fly off the handle at you for calling the bs flag again..... then you posted the shake and bake scene...... and totally redeemed yourself... good man. But regardless. The video isnt a lie. It is what it is. Whether he started in the wrong gear or just plain couldnt drive... the 2 cars in this video are what they are.

always possible. I gave him 3 chances and he picked the 60 rolls. i wanted the dead dig but he gave me a 30 roll. He just spun in second gear then missed third.

Here's how I see it...you ass whooped him. Nothing else really matters.
There are cars that make 380rwhp and run 10.90's. There are cars that
make 1,000hp that run 12's (Supras ). Power is irrelevant. ET and RT
win races. You won. He lost. You posted a vid. The results are indisputable.
Stopsign why do you have a video of your car idling cold in your sig? I watched it and all I saw was an ant racing across the ground towards your car after you started it. I expected at least a baddass run at the track or something. Just curious....anyway back to the thread.
My Son in his 06 GTO tried the highway crap with me. I only have a 3 speed TH400 and didn't really catch up with him for a little bit. Well at least until my turbo's finally got into spooling. I did leave it in 3rd gear all the way to give him a chance (manual valve body). Anyway this just prooves that given gearing, driver experiance etc the difference could be huge. I personally think the driver didn't let that stang get into the higher revs like he should've. Hard to tell but I normally hear those motors singing up high. Weight is ALWAYS the enemy of those who want to go quick! Makes up for a lot of missing HP for sure. Nice Kill!

Wasn't that badass!? He definately stole the show, that little booger. Everyone comments on him. I named him Henry.
Oh and I just got a video camera not even a year ago so the only video I have is of me at the track with the Mach. The way the car is in my sig I never got to take it to the track. I've already changed it. I change combinations on my motors about like I change my tires. It keeps me not bored.
The ant er Henry was moving I'll give it that much! But unless you stepped on it....it shouldn't be in the Kill Story threads....LOL
OK back to the action sorry folks.

thanks for the compliments. My new setups goal is in the 130mph area through an na 346ci. Gonna cost some loot but if i get the cylinder heads i think i may be getting.... it will be a solid roller setup turning 7500.

I can't speak for anyone else, but I don't like just knowing that something happened, I like to know why. I'm not disputing that what happened, happened, but there is a reason, even if we don't know what it is (and might never know). Just trying to understand cause I'm curious like that, haha.
