280zxt vs. 100 shot 94GT
Found a nice GT to run tonight, first run, 40mph 3rd gear.
We line up, Im dumb, thinking the turbo will spool great at 3000rpm in 3rd. Three honks, He floors it, so do I. He leaps ahead, and puts a freight train on me, I run dead lean and can't go anywhere, and let out.
2nd run, 55mph, 3rd gear... I adjust fuel a bit. He honks, we both lay into it. My turbo lags for about a half second and he jumps out about a half car. His gears are really short, and his shift into 4th allows me to pull ahead by a fender. I shift into 4th and slowly inch away another 1/4 car. His bottle runs dry and he lets out, around 110mph.
My car is a POS, and never lets me run right ever. I give it to that GT, even on an empty bottle he kept me at bay. It was extreemly difficult for the beater to get any progress on him.
Good run man. I hope to see you at the track again with my new clutch, 19psi and you with a full bottle.
Let me make the excuses now.
I couldnt muster more then 16psi, the car was being gay as usual, and his car is faster then mine.
GT - 1
ZX - 1

Later on I installed a bleeder valve, spiked 25ish psi, and leveled down to 19!!!
Clutch slipped like a whore in a KY factory though.

Note: Good death, does your car still run mid 14's?

Chris showed up a little later Mosachi.. he was kinda pissed you left.. oh well. It was a badass night with tons of cars running. Btw pretty fun friendly run Cronic. Even though you went dead ass lean and the boost wasn't set right, your car still moves like hell.
