All I head was some Lincoln Park BS.



Great video otherwise.

I notice in that video that the only 'full pass' shots are when the ricers are ahead of the domestics (except when it's domestic vs domestic). Seems a bit biased towards the imports to me. Still though, it's pretty impressive to see some of those fwd's staying on the bumper of a rwd doing a wheel stand. I'll stick with domestics either way though!

Big time, the guys over at nyce1's love the Imports a lot more...

That's okay though, cuz when they come down to Raceway Park we send them back home with their tails between their legs. Just wish there were more 3rd gens to help us do it, although I have to admit there are a few more locals that are at least getting started with their turbo builds on this board. Get em done guys, we need ya...

I went on Sunday (Nov 6th). Ummm... look at their site and check out the rules. Domestics dominated except Super Street and True Street. See the rules. Unfair in my opinion...

Re: For All You Turbo Junkies, This Should Get That Blood Of Yours Pumping...

Some of those imports trapping 170 plus is just disgusting.... Think the one hatch was doing 180+? Thats insane. Domestics make more power but are also alot heavier so it evens out. But still, some of those import motors are 1000whp these days from 4 cylinders.... V8's dont seem to get much more, 1400-1500 is ALOT from a V8 with some of the outlaw type builds getting near 1700-1800whp.
