I went to the track today to watch my friends car run(turbo e30 bmw). He ended up with a best time of 12.86 at 111mph.. GO BRANDON! so, I saw a bunch of skittles there. Some sort of convention or something, i dunno.
Anyway, the guy(that owns a red skittle) that lives in my complex was there and i finally got to meet him. Like a retard i forgot his name already. Not too sure what mods he has done but i know he has an exhaust. So after the track event we got on the highway and we raced from a 3rd gear roll, and by the end of third i had at least 4 cars. I thought he wasnt racing at all and i just raced myself so i asked him "did you downshift" he replied "yeah, to third!".. so, i guess we were racing. then he says, "That thing hauls man, pick on someone your own size". hehe, i had to laugh.
Really nice guy though. He told me he ran a 13.3 at the track with stickies wich is pretty respectable. I didnt run at the track, because i'm scared to break something.
Like the skittles say - i havent lost to a skittle yet!

so, go ahead Terminator and say "wanna race THIS skittle?".. lol JFWY

 

nice kill!

 

isnt 2 car lengths like a half to full second quicker sometimes? (depending on what mph u raced from), and you did that in 1 gear. your car is probably alot quicker than what people think i guess. good kill, keep the skrittles in check

 

i have heard that 1 car length is 1 tenth....but thats only what i have heard, i dont know 100%

 

yeah, but ive lost to cars at the track who are like 2 carlengths and it ended up being almost a full second, its hard to tell and u wouldnt think it would but it was? either way kyle's car is definately quick.

 

I had to register for this one.

IT WAS ME! he he.


Just as I'm all happy about my first pass (13.3 )in my SRT-4, you go and ruin it for me on the way home.

Kyle, your car is definitely fast. Now heat soak won't slow me down 3-4 lengths, but I had just finished running some BMW literally 5 seconds before running you. No excuses, you left me good. I'm sure we will try it again sometime soon.

BTW, no exhaust. I just removed the spaghetti dual exhaust tips.

Performance mods are: Mopar Stage 1, Mopar short throw shifter, upgraded wastegate actuator.

 

good kill kyle.....i remember racing slow kyle driving your car on the interstate and i was in 3rd and he didnt even downshift from 6th and u kept up w/ me

 

Are you the one I raced on the bridge about a month or so ago? Blue Mach 1, once from a dig, once from a roll.

 

No sir, not me.


Kyle: "pick on someone your own size" was meant to be a compliment, I wasn't serious, of course.

 

Kinda figured. You and I would have been a good race when I was stock and the race I had wasn't even close. Anyway, sounds like you have a good running Skittle. Good kill Kyle.
