Lennox Member 2,586 Member For: 11y 6m 24d Gender: Male Location: Perth Posted 24/10/14 12:39 PM Share Posted 24/10/14 12:39 PM Well the only proper standing start we had Marco had me, just...but as Steve can attest, I did light up the first 2 gears haha. Roll-ons were fairly even, but I reckon Marco would just have the edge, especially given his car shoots flames haha! Wasn't much in it though...until you put some corners into it, then GT wins Sounds like fun! I reckon you'd start reeling him back in at high speed like 150 plus or something.. I find at the drags the v8s gain a little more ground right at the end against my stock car anyway They got the revs we don't Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I reckon when you take it in on the 7th of Nov, you should get it tuned!!!!!!Then I won't have a chance in hell. There were times when Dan had an advantage over me and then there were times that I had the advantage over Dan.The only opportunity we had to run from a stand still at the lights, I had the advantage with Launch control.Put the foot down to 3500 rpm and then dropped the clutch. The GT had no chance.On the roll on's I noticed that the GT had the low down advantage to take off, but once the turbo kicked in...... I just started to reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeel him in slowly.I must say that I am absolutely impressed and over the moon, in regards to the handling of those Shockworks suspension set up.It is next on my list of mods to do. it will actually improve my handling, but more so the tire grip.Thumbs up to Dan and Steve for an awesome night last night. It was quite enjoyable. Pity about the poo poo Dan. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wasn't that exciting was it Marco?He meant po po. I had a cop do a u-turn so he could tailgate me to try to get me to speed or race or whatever it was he was hoping I'd do...saw him coming a mile away so had cruise control set at the speed limit. He eventually got bored and made another u-turn. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
