hahahah nice

LOL this is funny....

Guys it was extrememly close race.

Props to NYSDriftKing for the win. But props to Chrism and his MX5. It's obvious it can hang w/the 8 on the drag strip.

The temps yesterday were brutal. Allot of the cars on the strip were suffering from heat soak. There are many factors to take into consideration...but over all pound for pound the 2 are pretty dam close.

Gotta love some friendly Grudge competition.

BTW I thought Chris had him at first cause his launch was better.

And FYI his girl did say that...cause she didnt want to hear it all the way home - if she was picked up. She thought NYC DriftKing was going to jsut bounce had helost. But the classic moment was when she said watch if he wins Im sure he'll pull the peach moment from F&F and surely he did....CLASSIC and funny as hell that she called it. LOL

chrism 07-14-2008 09:44 AM

lmao.....it was great...i have to admit it....

ssspeedfreak 07-14-2008 11:20 AM

That was a very close race and me and my friend debated over who won. Damn I've got to get a helment for the next one! IT was a blast and s**t it was hot! I think everyone would have done better on a cooler day.

For real!

I think you need to do a count down video for the rematch.

chrism 07-14-2008 03:23 PM

funny how the ricer bags on me huh?

dmc27 07-14-2008 03:37 PM

It's probably just an akward attempt at befriending you, seeing as how you're the #1 ricer/poser.

It doesn't seem like your car is running up to par unless you are straight missing shifts or shifting verrrry slow.

Well I got heavier rims on the car. The car is pretty stiff as it's setup for drift not drag. I'v had the car for a lil over a year and i think it does pretty good.

NYC Drift King 07-14-2008 04:22 PM

Ok i do need to tune my car and get it running better. I was dragin with my boy today he has an 08' rx8. And he pulls a littel on me. And hey draging has never been my strong suit, but after that day i think i caught the bug. I just might go again this weekend.

SilverSurferRX8 07-14-2008 04:45 PM

i saw this from the stands... it was a really close one .... i give chris props ... he did hang .... and nyc u did launch nasty ... nut all in all nice race .... and dont worry NYC .... i still havent had my first drag yet .... maybe if you go this sunday i'll meet up with you and we can do some runs for fun so we can both practice..... oh and chris at least you didnt trade to a SUPER slow ass car.... or a honda ....

RojoOcho 07-14-2008 05:08 PM

Hahaha... love the Toretto shot.

ShinkaTeen 07-14-2008 05:13 PM

kimberly lynn 07-14-2008 05:16 PM
