Default le me ask 1 thing

Did you jump off the line?
You said a mitsu vr4
So it could either be the vr4 galant
Or the vr4 3000gt
Last time I checkd they both have all-wheel drive
Its pretty hard to beat awd with our rwd off the line, cuz they're always gonna get the lead from a stand still
Unless you jumped you can't beat the vr4 off the line,
This is me assuming that this was a streetrace, and both cars were driving with street tires
There's only a few situations that a rwd can beat a awd off the line
1 awd ddnt move
2 awd had street tires and the rwd had slicks
3 guy with the awd was a dee dee dee
And wasn't paying attention,
4 he had a reaction time of a person with a coma
Lol
Etc
I'm really not trying to talk you down but
I have seen a lot of awd vs rwd races
If the rwd wins its bcuz of top-end speed

haha, na he was onto it, and knew exactly what was going on!

To be fair it was more of a rolling start - we were both sitting next to each other at the lights - when they went green we didnt launch off the line, he kept up to about 40 - 50kph, he looked over at me and booted it. My reaction was slower but smoked him none the less.

his car was a VR4 legnum wagon btw (galant)

he was no competition.

True - standing start may have been different story, but i still would have easily caught him.

Well a running start is a diffrent story
I believe supras still hold the bragging rights for that one, since top-end speed is what we can brag about the most
But I try to stay away from racing awd cars
But I will still race them for fun only!!!

Well it was certainly fun... Especially seeing the look on his face when we stopped next to each other at the next set of lights

Got the small nod of approval - he was gutted!!...

But if you dont have the torque to make use of the available traction, than you not really at much of a disadvantage in a supra. Turbo 4s dont exactly have low rpm power.

I beat a Mustang GT 97ish(intake, exhaust) by about 5 car lengths with a Silverado 01 with an intake and TB spacer. It was on a roll from 55mph to 90mph. LOL

Default near future kill

My car is enjoying sum downtime
Due to the engine swap

But sum fool wants to race me for titles
He's running a 92 celica ,auto
Freakin ricer, stock exhaust, with a tip
And he said I qoute
"My car is a runner, I win money all the time with it, so Ill take out my spray so you won't lose too bad"

So as soon as my car runs imma hand his a$$ over to him, then he can hand me the title for my new car lol

just a start of my list even though i have beaten many of foes, i would not like to post my wins, unless i knew the other person was trying, so i'll keep updating what my stock 86.5 n/a can do...

1. Focus ZX3- I win by a long shot, he had exhaust and dunno what else.
2. Oldsmobile Alero- haha this guy thought he was hard in his olds blowin by me while i was doing the speed limit on a windy mountain pass... which intrigued me.. so then i blew his doors off, for the next few minutes until he was out of sight, he tried keepin up i could tell, but not on my HWY 20 pass.
3. 01' Accord(not V6) doesnt stand a chance against any supra, my ex g/f's car, i would race her all the time.
4. to be announced...
