When you can't figure out how to launch a car, there's always roll racing.

Funny... Viper took the lead for most off-track detours today at Thunderhill <shrug>

That's a pretty fast ride, no matter what!

How ironic, all the guys coming in here making ***** size cracks are the ones saying the place has gotten full of "dicks."

Pro-tip: If you are attacking another's manhood for merely expressing his opinion, perhaps you are the one with the shortcomings. Just sayin'.

i think we are all cars lover, so why not act accordingly??!! I had my share of import, hell at one point i thought my stock Integra Type-r was powerful!! But i grew and now im rocking a modded ZR1, and dont look down on other that doesnt have a 100k car! I love everything that goes fast, except the gtr! Because no one as reward going fast in a car that does it on its own!!

I saw the Integra going down the track at Sealy on Friday and it was only going 141-142 mph... Never left clean..... There was a bad head wind that day and the DA was +1000'. Definitely didn't live up to the hype we heard about it on Thursday..

The corvette run was a 158. I will pull up the sheet that shows the ladder if need be. You run?

158 was the roll race. 142 was at the drag strip if I'm following correctly.

Maybe. I know that car has trapped 151MPH in the 1/4. Video above shows it.

Correct on the drag race. I watched it make two passes.. I don't recall the ETs as I was mainly watching for trap speeds but it was barely in the 10s..

Not saying the car isn't fast or doesn't trap 151 mph.. Just saying that on the day that everyone was competing on the same track in the same conditions, it went 142 mph.

As for the rest of the cars, most of them were high 9 to low 10 sec cars... Even the GTRs.. There were a couple supra race cars that ran low 9s and maybe even an 8.70 but... I wasn't overly impressed with all these 1000rwhp cars running high 9s.


The quickest cars there were the AMS Alpha GTRs.. I know they run bottom 8s but I never saw them make a pass.

There isn't such thing as "The UGR Lambo TT" the car that won the event was Nick K's Gallardo TT with a speed of 201mph. ETS's car was running very hard though hitting 195mph as were many of the GTRs.

In the end the UGR GTT's proved once again they are king of the streets beating all comers. In fact quite a few GTR owners with 1500+awhp cars are considering UGR GTT builds now that they have seen how fast these cars are in person.

When you are pushing 1700-1800awhp once you hit 140mph there isn't much that will keep up, if anything on the street. When you are walking cars that trap 165mph by buslenghs, well that about sums it up.

ETS is awesome though I purchased a turbo kit from them years ago. Can't wait for the Texas Invitiational and I expect the UGR cars to beat all comers.

He would just buy a ZR1 and write it off and let English racing race it. He has three GTR's..
