looks to me like the 180 would be a good one against the r32 as well. very nice looking runs. i would like to see more than just the 150m though......some nice 1/4 runs would be great....



the vids loaded up nice and fast too....

Thank Vosko for the fast downloads.





As far as My 180sx VS that Skyline in the video, yeah, I'm trying to get ahold of the video of me racing him as well. I ran him all the way to the finish before he got me.

hey dragon talk to me honestly.

In a 1/4 race how close do you think the skyline would be a lil closer or take you or would

you win by a nose? from the vid it looks pretty close you took him by like a car length.

tell me what you think honestly.

in the 1/4 I would eat him... did you see the jump he got on me off the line with his 4 wheel drive.. I had to come back on him several car lengths to beat him in 150meters and I was moving a lot faster than him when I passed him... I'd probably gain anouther 5 car lengths or more if we went the extra 250 meters... He has the power, but he weighs too much..



Ie. FD3S = 1,298 kgs

GT-R = 1,800 kgs or so



I estimate my car at 500 hp to the wheels

that GT-R is supposed to have 650+ to the wheels



1kg = 2.2 lbs, do the hp to weight ratio math.. he's only got a traction advantage off the line.. after that it's all Hp/weight and how well you can shift you pos transmission.. :bigok:

As a die hard Nissan fan.... I must say He definitely would stomp that GT-R in a longer race. The GT-R was running smaller turbos... unlike us with bigger ones. Third gear on a T4 is a whole different ball game. That GT-R would continue running like that, but both of our cars would open up and start pulling hard.



Four Wheel Drive is what got that GT-R to where it is.
