ever wonder how a 95 gpx goes up agianst a r33 gtst skyline, running 22 pound bost. I sure did. last tuesday I got feed up with this bloke from work goin on how his skyline would beat and quet, sorry bout spelling, my piece of sh*t fto. so I told him lets go to the qrt, so we did. he jumped the start so I just planted it cought up to him in 2nd then hit rev limit, smashed it in 3rd and smashed past him. by the time we hit the qrt line I was at least 100m in front. at the end off the pissing contest he said he raced another skyline the day before and it never beat him that much. the end.

i don't know why i'm laughing at a car getting keyed, esp an fto. keying a soap box is alight though

nice.
i have many similar stories about all these little hardcunts in their SSS pulsars thinking they're faster than the FTO.
sickens me when people talk down to my FTO

FTO's are almost worthless in a straight line, you guys understand this right?

yes,
but do you seriously think SSS's are better?
i would say a gtst would be better.
but surely not all these other shitter quality front wheel drive cars.

I think his mate owns sss. im setting up a race with a gtrt and a chaser for this sat nite hopefully there keen. I know the gtrt is. not sure bout the chaser. yeh I told the bloke who sold the gtst to me mate and was like what has he done to it. and he has done nothing it still runs the same. im just happy hes shut up bout it and when I tell everone bout it he's like all shamed and sh*t.

its good that you beat him, but don't go bragging to others saying you beat a gtst, because you'll end up getting in races that you just wont win, one being against a GTR as you just said

S.kylines are quicker than FTOs.

I reckon it should be a close race. Perhaps up to five car lengths? 100m gap is hell of a lot! Can you give him a chance again for another matchup. Just to confirm. If what you said is really true, everyone in this forum will be so proud of you!

maybe he had a fat turbo that didnt get to spool..
so in reality it was racing a 2.5L low compression non turbo...

SSS has an SR20DE, with minor work it could pull big enough numbers to beat a GPX. That's if they haven't all just done the SR20DET conversion like 90% of SSS owners have. (Hey its what I'd do if I owned one)
I'd say work on your launch more than anything. So many people can't f**king launch properly. I've (at the track of course >_>) taken a fair few suckers who couldn't launch properly in much higher powered cars.
