Sick! Who is that?

Two things about the race against the yellow car. First, what's up with the yellow cars launch? Second, did the wheels come of the ground after shifting to second?

bobiseverywhere - did you try the links in post #8?

rakkasan - I get the suspicion they are bracket racing - so the slower car will start first, then the faster car will start later, by the number of seconds faster it should be. In theory, both cars should hit the finish line at exactly the same time.
 

aye mate

i dont think they were bracket racing...i just think he sat at the line until he got the revs where he wanted them to get the right launch..... since the time wont start until you leave the line ....the reason i say tat is because im sure he dialed in a 10.5ish and woon im sure dialed in a 9.5ish so in your theory woon should have waited a second in their race and he didnt....

either way :D

The video is of tony i believe he lives in las vegas and that video is from the las vegas drag strip. He is the guy last year that put down 700+ hp and also the one who suffered from a nitrous explosion and blew the intake manifold into peices.

It just looks like they decided to learn how to drive a manual tranny during the launch. To put it mildly, the launch sucked :wuteva:

IIRC, the fellow who blew his nitrous in the intake was the 900 hp monster, he is running a larger turbo and LOTS of nitrous on a built motor.

The other guy at Vegas who is running stock internals was *only* pushing out 600+ hp IIRC.

There were pictures posted of the 900+ hp engine bay, both before and after the nitrous explosion. Might turn up under a search on SF for SILV 2004... Or Keith might be able to point you towards them if you ask.
