Hey "Stangers", it turns out I wasn't hooking right. I 've practiced a couple times and perfected my launch. So you know I wanted revenge. First race from a dead stop. I took off almost redlining chirpped into 2nd then 3rd and I beat him by 1 and a 1/2 car length. Race on freeway,it was clear, we took off from a 30 mph roll and I beat him by 1 car length after about a mile. Revenge is sometimes better than getting coochie!! OH, YEAH!!!!! :knuppel2:
