ls turbo crx vs sti and sti vs probe turbo
Well i was finishing up putting fenders, hood, and front bumper on my car, had my friend who owns a ls turbo crx help me out. You guys know i hit a deer back in november. It was in the upper 40s today so i finally got the car drivable. Glad i got that done early in the day cause it was below freezing tonite. Anyway we were bored so...... We called up some of the boys to meet up. The same sti that i raced back in november had beat the crx a few weeks ago. The sti was inthe shop having something done to it i aint sure what it was. He didnt tell anyone what he was doin to it but anyway. It was time for a rematch. The crx wanted revenge on the sti and the sti was determined to beat me. I wasnt planning on racing tonite but i did anyway.
On the way there i ran the crx from a roll and i maybe had like a fender on him(didn get it on tape). the crx ran the sti from a 20 roll(he wont do a 40), and once from a dig(yea we know it was pointless). Then i ran the sti from the 20 roll again. the vid http://videos.streetfire.net/video/c...obe_634519.htm

Sweet. Good to see some action from you again.
I thought you would catch him in the end. Looks like you tearin it up between 1st and 2nd let him get ahead. Cant wait till i can hold my own with some STI's.

LOL. He was due to beat me. In warmer weather he cant beat me at all from a roll 1st gear roll. He has no chance from a 40 roll. But anyway if you want i can come your way when it warms up. I am gonna be upping the boost here pretty soon.

I tuned it more. I will post up more videos after it gets warmer out. Temps below freezing isnt really helping me.

I am really thinking about going turbo on my ZE now. Just seeing your car on 5psi is quick which would be plenty for me. I already have MS too just not installed.

regardless, when racing on the street, if the two cars are so dead even through fourth (or their 1:1 gear), just let out and call it a day. racing in overdrive gears is stupid, they're meant for fuel economy and it's just going to be the battle of who has the better fuel economy gear. |

Anyway we ran from 1st gear, he pulled away thru 1st and 2nd. I couldnt reel him in before we let off so I lost. I will post a rematch maybe this weekend its supposed to be warmer.
