Boo hoo, at least you lost to something respectable.

I had a lifted Z71 beat me off the line, and I didnt start passing his ass untill 3rd gear. Damn rednecks and their worked over trucks. He had a 4wd launch advantage, but he was packing some power in order to hold me off for two gears.

If it had a big square wing, it was an STi and you're supposed to lose to it.

If it was a WRX, those are easily modded and losing to it isn't the end of the world.

Get some mods and get over it.

Oh, and SN doesn't condone street racing.

Don't feel bad. I owe a steak dinner to one of the guys in our club. He beat me in his Z71...has a 6.0 with a big ass cam and spraying. He runs 12's.

It was probably modded that's why you should be carefull the
cars you race because you never know what the next guy has
under the hood."cough" SN doesn't condone street racing. "cough"
Save up for a KB and you should be quite happy with your car.

You are correct. SRT4's are FWD only.

Yeah I was just thinking maybe he went off on a tangent about SRT4's for 1 line and then started talking about WRX's again which are...who knows!

If it was an STi, then by all means you should have been beaten! With a proper launch, they'll run easy mid/low 13s at 102-103ish stock.
I ran one in the my 4cyl stang. He left me on the spool up (from a roll), but after that I was keeping up, and even gaining slightly. Just too little too late....
