zacs2k- 2001 honda s2000; stock



Shane- 2009 Pontiac G8; he will tell you





1st run: dead stop, I launched at 7k, prolly should have launched at 6k. We were even till about 25mph, he started pulling. At about 80mph he pulled harder and then he started braking while i was at roughly 110mph. He had put about 5-6 cars on me.



2nd run: 40mph roll, I was in 2nd at 5.5-6k. We were even till his car shifted into 3rd (I guess that was the gear, it was 1-2 seconds into the race). Then he started pulling. We shut off about 100-110 again. He didnt put as many cars on me from the roll i dont think. He put about 4-5, once he hits around 80 though his pull increases



3rd run: I think this was the 25-30 roll. I was in 2nd and at low rpm. He won by alot. We had 2 of these runs.



4th run: This was another 40 roll. Again it was pretty well even till his car shifted to 3rd (not long into the race at all). He started his pull and then at aboout 80 he pulled hard again. We shut off around 110 or so. He had put 5 cars or so on me again.





Notes:

-The G8 pulls hard

-The S cant pull as hard

-The G8 won all the races

-The S needs rear gears, intake, exhaust, and tune





Feel free to make corrections shane
