Ha-ha! Ready to come back, lol. Angry at Lmood right now for planning a FL F meet and not a north GA or SC meet😝😝!
Bringing 3-4 Fs to the next meet! And hopefully a few RCFs as well 👍

But 80 to 110 I pulled half a car...by 130-135, he had a full car on me....sucker was QUICK! Cool dude...gave each other the thumbs up and keep it moving, lol.
Not sure what would have happened 140-170 or so. ..or even from a dig...but mad props to him.
What kind of power are they making from tunes?

Stupid amounts, easily enough to match an F/M3 that is stock with only a tune.

Still curious how I became the meets facilitator LMAO. Jk. I'd be down for a tri-state meet between GA, SC and NC. Also I may or may not be working on a big east coast meet for next year. 😉

Agree with dc guy above^^he's a friend of ours and we go out quite often at least 2-3 times a month and go play around on the highway at car meets and he always pulls on both of us

At altitude we're losing enough that he puts about 2-3 car lengths at about 130ish on us.......... still fun though
