asscelerator Report post Posted March 19, 2013 From what Kevin said when he posted the vid, this was the only race where the highway surface allowed full brake boosting. I am not from around Texas, but from what I've heard from others, that could very well be the case. Can't really get a proper read on the performance of the cars unless they both can do a full brake boost. No idea if someone had the jump or not in the vid, but the other runs will just have to be shown Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No idea if someone had the jump or not in the vid, but the other runs will just have to be shown Forgive me as I only have a C63 but, what does the hit matter if you are getting pulled? Sure the car who hit will be out in front but, if you are slower(hit wise) but faster, you'll make up ground Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadowzz Report post Posted March 19, 2013 @Vegasgtr although i agree with you that this wasn't a 100% clean race i have to dismiss your theory about momentum of the person that takes the hit in this case. That momentul is lost once the TTG (MANUALLY) shifts the first time (and the smooth GTR transmission does it's job) , as you can see in the video. The cars are, for just a fraction of a second ... at par. But once the TTG get's on it, it pulls. To put it simpler ... the TTG pulled the GTR ... even if they would have gotten a even hit the lambo would have still pulled it ... and the longer the race the bigger the pull.

TTBULL Report post Posted March 19, 2013 Guys, There will always be a car in front of another no matter who jumps first.. Someone will always jump out first and that's called racing. Not sure what all the fuss is about. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Underground Racing Report post Posted March 19, 2013 Kevin , Trust' said it was pretty much EVEN , who ever got the hit Won. his Quote: "Both runs with clean hits were super close, the only time there was air between between our front/back bumpers was when it was an uneven hit. " I know you will only show the ones that YOU got the hit and won. I would say that GTR is = to a stage 2R UG car. At the request of the GTR fan's that wanted to see this video from beside the car... Some GTR fan's said that the Gallardo was loosing in the above video and the Gallardo lifted. Although I think this is silly to argue as it wasn't much of a race, here is the bumper shot just to show you the Gallardo was clearly in front when it had to lift due to the street tires letting loose on the bumpy road. Furthermore he couldn't brake boost heavily due to the poor road. Watch the distance between the lines and the rear tire as you will see it skating through the short pull.. We pay all these taxes for what? Shitty roads to race on? haha! No doubt Rezas car is extremely fast and I'm sure it wont be so easy at TI.

That's the one I wanted to see, looks like old man Tag needs to start shifting quicker , lol. That was a fun run, safe to say that was really the cleanest run we had? Looks like we need a rematch! Looking forward to TI. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea, you guys next time should use a horn or hang out the window to signal go. You guys using telepathy to communicate the take off or what? You and Tag need to practice that more.

duhawks Report post Posted March 19, 2013 You guys ever scared of the back end coming loose and hitting each other!??!? I would be nervous to side swipe someone....

Even this video proves that. The Gallardo was pulling away before it let off. Anyway, it has been fun. Reza, you have a bad ass car. I am sure you will come out swinging at TI. Kevin, quit being a bum and get my slow car done so I can join you guys at some of these events.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, like I said, no doubt it was the faster car. My only hope was on the shift efficiency. We turned it up about 100HP for Saturday's race but we just couldn't get the race off. It has a bit left in it for TI so it should be fun, it's still an ugly SOB though. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looked like between shifts the GTR pulled it in and then lambo pulls slightly away. My debate earlier was not a even hit. Its clear that the Lambo is quicker.. just not 15 cars quicker. should be a great TSS event. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
