Yeah they kind-of bent the rules for some of these cars because most of them are street racers in the So Cal seen. The Guy i raced is not a street racer anymore but still likes dumping huge amounts of money into that supra. After we raced he came over to my camp paid me, we shared a few drinks and bullshited for a few. I had no idea that Supras, or the one that he has without all the extras, are worth so much or also how many people want them. I guess I am a dinosaur because I see a Supra as a sports car that my mom owns not a race car. I have to give him props on this tho. If you Google Barona 1/8 track and see where it is at, he drove that thing there, then home. It runs on E85 and can make huge boost numbers. Our race was settled at 25psi. So in April match race 7 is going down and he wants a rematch. I told him if my plate is clear he is on and I said give it all its got and turn it up.
So this is how the races went. First race I asked him what lane he wanted since this is what I would call my home track. He wanted right I took left. I did the burn out then went straight to pre-stage lit that bulb. As soon as he pre-staged I lit the next one he creep in and bamm lights flash I was gone, 0.055 for me he got a 0.356 reaction time and missed a shift. win for me
Before the second race I went up to him and said I am up one race and this next one could be expensive for you. I said lets make this a race so what lane do you want, he said he wanted to try the left lane. No problem. Then he was saying that he had lots to do before the race. So I said do the burn out and I will hold back you go in and pre-stage then i will. When you stage and ready to race, hit the gas and start popping that thing then I will stage. This way if I win, I earned it, he was cool with that. I was up one so I just wanted to have fun and get a real race. I wanted him to know that I gave him everything I could to make it fair.
