Not to mention he was at perfect rpm for his turbo to hit in right away

yea, to be honest u have ***** or alot of confidense to run a forced induc car from a roll...... 4 cycl cars on stock turbos (except s/c rsx'x haha) hit full boost usally at around 3500k and could double hp in a split sec.... thats 60mph in 3rd...... i only know this cause a had a modded 06 sti for awhile..... roll-ons were my bread and butter... also had a 06 s4..... biggest pile of sheet....... actually im lookin forward to running a 07 s4 v8 slighly modded this fall haha

The reason we went from a roll was beause I told the guy it would be unfair from a dig since i've had driving experience from a dig and have had my car for a lil while. He has only had it for like 2 months. I told him the run from a 35 roll would be an advantage to him since he has his turbo and its spooling right there and that's my dead spot.

OP why are you disappointed? You raced a car that moves out pretty well from a roll, plus you even gave him the advantage by picking a spot you said was your dead spot. Next time go from a dig, or a better spot for you from a roll. Besides you still won.
