Default first race in a while

Well my cars been having nothing but problems in a while. blew the T5 to pieces racing a wrx a while back (posted bout it). spent about a month downtme getting a tr3650 custom fitted into the v6. finally got it in. drove the car for a week before i noticed probs. ended up eatin the trans up. bearings, synchros, sliders etc. got that fixed and finally drove the car again today.

so now the race.

some neon with a fart can.... i know not a real race but man it felt good to go WOT again. he was lookin at me at the light, with his music blaring. light goes green and he hit it. i rolled it out to 10, then punched it. spun completely through 1st and still pulled a half car on him. hit second and spun most of it and had a nice 5 car lead by then lol.

anyway, i know i know "why waste the gas" but i jsut wanted to get into the throttle. first time in months lol

12.03 @ 118.5

stock engine, ph411 turbokit (pt-61), 3.31 gear rear end (stock ratio), tr3650 trans swap, custom driveshaft. misc supporting mods.

im done hunting that 11 second slip. its cost me more money than its worth. i ran the 12.03 in 3500+ DA so i know i have an 11 second car in any decent conditions.

im actually selling off my drag wheels, and ill be in the market for a new car come 5 months or so.

really? that sucks man. I put the full interior back in, added some more sound deadening, and I'm looking at welding in a couple resonators to quiet it down so that I have a 600hp daily driver
