From a dig i really dont know ??? a year and a half ago the car went 12.4 @ 119 NOW i have no clue.

I'll be more than happy to race you, however from a roll more likely after the event.

So you gonna answer my question now.

We are talking about a track event. If you want a roll go down to your local bakery and get in line with the rest of the Honda guys.

Its funny i guess you decline a friendly challenge. Love to talk shit, just say no you dont want to go from a roll, cuz your car is built for a dig. No need to talk all the shit, but your right, it would be pointless for you to "roll" with me, wouldn't be much of a race.

I dont care, ill do a dig, for fun, But the car is not at full power from a dig. oh well

"Built for a dig"? You mean - built correctly? The only people who race from a roll are those with Supra-style powerbands; massive power up top. The #1 way people get that powerband is by throwing money at an engine with no real knowledge. It's much, much more expensive to get a 500whp car with a 3000rpm powerband than a 600whp car with a 1500rpm band. And, 10/10 times, the one with the most area under the curve is the one who wins the drag. So.. "built for a dig" is just building a car correctly in my book.

No, no, get your facts right. If you look @ what you said 1/2 of it is bull shit You dont know my reasons. You have no clue how I BUILT my car and second of all you DO NOT know the reasons for "Built for a Dig" comment. I was referring to chassis drivetrain components such as a rollcage, after market axels, driveshaft. P.S the last time i launched my car, with DR i snapped an axle @ Bithlo, so i don't want to drive to Tampa and break something. If you have a place where aftermarket J30 axles are available please let me know.
Where in the text did i say i don't /won't go from a dig. Next time ask what i mean by the comment before making an ignorant statment.
So i guess i have a date when it comes to Bradington.

-Jeff I PROMISE you a race. I look forward for you beating me @ the track

eh, we'll all race you from a roll whenever, but this thread is for track day callouts and setups, just come hang out with us and be friendly, we just choose not to discuss "after hours" events on the board.

i tried to get to bithlo tonight but i ran long on my errands. i did get my LSD and axles put in, so i am halfway there. just need to install my clutch setup, find some spare wheels, and order some DR's or slicks, and i will be ready cant wait to finally get some times to see how well all my hard work has payed off (or not hehe).
