2.4 ss/tc vs g8 gt

well me and my club had a small de-mod/mod day. i got my taillights re night shaded. wanted em a bit darker, and im selling my turbo cavy parts to a club member so he wanted to remove them today.

while we were eating, my friends decided to crack some jokes on my newly turboed 2.4 ss. i recently got my tune updated thru vince @ trifecta and got my blown off piping issues settled so the car has been treating me pretty well. The jokes commence thru the day and i let them slide mostly. well we have a g8 gt auto in the club and he kept talkin about running me so on the way out we lined up.(this is mexico btw.)

1st run was a 60 roll. (im the honker on all 5 runs) . on all of them by my 2nd honk i can hear him hitting wot, but i chose to downshift on the 3rd honk and let him get a wot start. i pull him good and put about 1.5-2 cars on the first run. i finish at about 120

2nd run. same speed. pretty much same outcome..

3rd run. was about a 45 roll. he gets about a 1 car lead but i pull on him and put about a car on him by the time i hit 5th.

4th run. he kept slowing me down so we got to about 20 on this one. i downshifted too slow and he put about 2 cars on me....i started to pull on him but he shut down before i caught up so i lost this one.


5th run. i have like no gas but i decide to try again.. my buddy with a 2.4 auto ss/sc is on my left and g8 on the right. i honk it off and put about the same 1.5-2 cars on him again. before i shut off.... wut a fun night.


he did have his gf in the car btw. it was just me in mine.

g8 mods-intake, underdrive pulley kit
2.4 ss/tc mods. garrett 50 trim turbo,7 psi, 60s, trifecta tuning, 2.5" exhaust. tranny mounts

Why are you down shifting during the honking? You should be downshifted and ready to go before you honk....You should brake boost it too.

since its a friend of mine i wanted to embarass him a bit. lol like i said. they were making fun of my "slowbalt" all night.

letting em get a small jump and putting a car or two on em after i pass is a good way to do that.

I would have brake boosted and pulled twice the lengths to really show them how slow it is.
