Default Wa2k14? Racewars!

Well the closest we have to it anyway. A street race event called DTP Racewars on Sunday, it was East vs West shootout. 500rwhp minimum to enter.

http://www.kstuned.com/pages/east-vs-west

Some pics and video from the event, many of them borrowed from facebook. It was roasting hot 100 degrees and hella fun. Lots of boosted cars challenge to hook on an airstrip and keep IAT's in check.

In the finals it came down to my C5Z with TTiX, vs a C6Z also running a TTiX. Very proud to get the win and take home roughly $800, trophy, and title of East vs West 2014. There is some f-bomb language in the videos, careful at work.

Nice results and congrats on the win. Was the C6 suffering from heat soak, hence the popped hood? I'm surprised they let you run with no safety equipment and passengers.

Awesome and congrats on the win, but I gotta give it to the C6 for banging gears

Was that the C6 that Danglass raced in his Yellow rear mount turbo c5?

It was a 1/4 mile. We all suffered in the heat, pretty neat trick running with the hood popped.

Yeah taking a passenger and no tech rules were the main reasons I went. We got to let it eat without getting in trouble.

Yes it's the same vette, nice car. Pretty good fast n furious footage eh.

Looks hella fun Chris... How did you get it to hook on that unprepped road and leaving off the 2 step? Whatever you did worked...

That C6Z got out on you, I thought your were done but you pulled him up top..... C5Z FTMFW!

Awesome man!!

I'd LOVE to try some stuff like that with mine but...I couldn't pedal it enough to do much...

I was having to pedal almost instantly, and couldn't go wide open until 3rd about 70mph. I recently switched back to 26" bias plys and they were working pretty good.

That is awesome.

Glad to see at least all of the Vettes and the muscle cars had their front bumpers on!!!

Thanks, and it was fun representing the C5. Here's a video made by the event sponsors. They're talking about having another one in September.

You represented the C5 damn well! The "Antique" C5 can still play with the best. Awesome vid.

It's all about Morris' ZR1 though not that we are biased to it or anything haha!

Most of them knew nothing about me, but got their attention as we were smashing everyone. Obvious by the crowd reaction at the end of that vid.
