Default S2k vs AMG vs EVO X

So I took my car out for the first time after getting it tuned last Sunday and this past Saturday I raced my buddy's amg and Evo. Amg (idk what year but I saw 6.2 or 6.7 litter) claims to be stock and the Evo I have no idea but I'm pretty sure he's e-85 and my other friends have said he's full bolt ons. I'm on 7psi at 385hp to the hubs. Barely getting use to the power also. Anyways we have done 30-35mph and I'm 2nd. I lost both races and my buddy in the car said that was too low since I don't hit boost around 4.5k rpm.


Here's the vid of 3 of us at around 30mph

This is the vid of me and the amg at 45mph

It was fun for sure. First time having a turbo car and this much hp lol. That AMG it's like 481hp and he's flash. I was really hoping I get close or beat that Evo but it failed lol.. Anyways hopefully next time we can do 40-45mph like when I raced the Amg

you won against the AMG though on the 2nd video? seems like you were on the wrong gear on the first video. lol.. there's no way those 2 cars would pull that hard on you..
