Idk, you should've had him by a bit more like one car or one and a half. But good win anyway.

With the pulley he dosent stand a chance. Tuned with a good driver that isint afraid to use all those rpms can be quite the competition thought.

Nice cars tho, almost baught one.

EDIT: forgot man, nice kill!

The weight of the passenger will definately make a difference.

haha yea... idk i think he was lying about what he had cause i raced one on the highway before and beat him by much more of a distance... i cant see how just a clutch flywheel wheels rims and a intake could make him keep up that much... but i know if i wouldnt have had that passenger would have been by more

My friend has an 02 cl-s. He has a custom intake. Sounds awesome but it's automatic. I know the HP on those are pretty high. How would I fair in a race against him from a dig?

I think the light weight flywheel is a great upgrade for those cars, because it allows him to up to his most agressive power range ( high rpm power ) much quicker.
I'm certain thats what made him keep up with you.

If you where to do a flywheel upgrade to, you'd murder him pretty damn good

I still don't know....I'd set the race up again without any passengers from a launch to 120.

Off topic: Crate Engine Depot told me 30-90 days to get GM Stage 1!!!! I won't be beating on my car for another 3 months But hey, my cel is gone now that I haven't gone passed 3000 rpm in a week.
