I know, i generally dislike roll racing, and think its the ***** way out. BUT... I am taking the ***** way out, and taking a break from racing this year. Haven't done anything to the car, and can't afford to fix it if I break it. My lady friend is getting an SS too, so I'll be rocking her car down a strip, haha.

That said, there are some cocky STI's in town, I am getting pretty hungry for one, since last week I stuck with a 500whp Terminator Cobra from 40 about 90, then we ended up my front bumper to his rear by 110.

Or... it just shows who can jump before the 3rd honk. Myself, it doesn't prove much because I am horrible for launching off someone else's honk, and end up giving a slight advantage to the honker. Or most people jump off my honk too quick. I would NEVER put money on a roll, unless I knew for a fact I would get them, or had a 3rd, neutral party to spot any insane jumps.

I like rolls, take out all the excuses, none of that drag radial BS or preping, just seeing how you can shift your car and how quick it is.
Just my opinion though, we all have different ones. =)
Be wary of how I may kill you when I see you next.

I've gotten pretty good at rolls, fairly confident in my ability. People jump from digs too though, and depending on your setup, it doesn't always show driver skill, one setup is always handicaped (I E kid in an evo can get you due to AWD carrying him off the line. Not too difficult to do). Besides, imo, most of the races we get are highway pulls.
