anytime someone is baiting you with a $$ race they are obviously blowing smoke up your ***. nobody makes a cash challenge they don't believe they can win : P

No way a car with a real 500WHP is running 12 anything on drag radials. But how did we go from a GXP to that?

This guy is baiting you. Unless you want to lose your money I think you should pass on the challenge. I seriously doubt that 12.04 is the best that car will run.

That was the most obvious hustler tactic Ive ever seen! I think it was a bit overdone on purpose though, out of smugness....

As for the potential run itself, I'd think it would be a halfass decent run on motor, but with the spray I just see bad things...

I'll take into consideration all the advice my S/S buds have offered. If he get's next to me at a light or if it is a planned meet I'm gonna run him. Don't worry I won't bet the title to my car or to have my wife for one night, I ain't crazy! Seems as though (through some mutual friends) that he's making right at around 355 to the rear wheels N/A. 500 is out of my league but dosen't 355 seem more realistic for a better run?

You would kill him at 355, he should have some weight on you.
