They'll have you off the line, but as soon as you hit 3rd, you'll get ahead. Don't worry about it. If the car is manual, rev up to about 4k and you'll get a good jump. If your auto, then stand on the brake and rev up to about 3k and that should get u there also.

I would but my engine is messed up right now. I went there last friday and blew my engine racing a Mazda 6 on 595 west on my way home. Hit about 105 and then BANG! I started to take my engine apart and checked the plugs and plug #3 didnt have a gap in it. So that might be my problem. I have all the parts, I just need to put it all together. But I might be able to get out there. If I go I'll be with someone named Irfan in a blue focus or Ryan in a white 240.

I have only been driving about 2 years and have been driving a stick for about 3 months. Naturally, i have some questions.
What do you mean by "not shift right"? Also what is granny shifting? I just started racing my 87t recently and don't know if im shifting right myself. |

naaahhh ... way it goes with auto supras is you take them off the line then fight to stay ahead. if he's having an auto supra upped i'd bet he'll never see them the whole race ... is it an auto ?
not shift right = early shifts, late shifts and missed shifts ( yea, yea. autos suck. win, then tell him to buy one ? )

So I bought this old Honda bike, an NSR250. Bit of a street racer, I guess. I'm told they're fast. Delivering it home with a friend driving the Supra for the first time. I drop gears and make a scream from the twin pipes flowing down this pony's flanks and it takes off like it's tail's on fire. I look back when the Honda gets to its tap-out and the Supra's only two lengths behind. No one I've let ride my bike has told me its slow, they've all loved the thing. That car is a good thing indeed. |
