What the Gay?
ok my car= 91 NA Corksport headers mid pipe catback no silencer (loud as **** ^_^) brand new falken tires, good clutch, open diff, basic mostly stock RX
Buddies car = 89 240sx coupe stock headers stock cat custom cat back, 85% toyo tires AEM short ram, good clutch, open diff, lowering springs
race = 25mph lose by 2
40 mph win by one
stand still lose by 3
how am I losing to this car? I'm not the best drag racer in the world (I prefer twisting roads) but I didnt miss shift, I launched pretty well is my car actually slower then his power wise or did I **** something up?

lol, you lost to a 240 in an S5 na with a full exhaust? It does have better torque than you, but once you hit 3rd you should be pulling on him and towards redline in 3rd you should have him. My opinion, driver error. Your car should have more than enough power to beat a 240 in the top end, especially with a full exhaust.
