I've got
Ford EL XR6
VT V6 Commodore
CRX Del Sol
Mitsubishi Cyborg

pulling up beside a parked car and flooring it is NOT claiming a scalp. Im sure the 147kw Commodore or 165kw XR6 was really straining its guts out to conquer your gemies rubber band 50kw's.

Umm the kids on their push bikes and the posty bike. I think there was a Vespa as well somewhere.

Building a car for speed is not my thing. Each to their own I guess hey Smile

hehehehe *smirkz*

On acceleration (I back off around 60-70 coz I ain't stupid) I figure if I can give a car a fright off the line and beat it to 60 or so then psychologically they're stuffed.

My scalps:
VT V6 auto
VC 253 manual
Late model Habib owned Lancer done up like a poxy shitheap
Mild Datsun 1600
302 XD auto
2.6l Sigma manual(they can surprise, lots of torque)
A few stocky VLs

I prefer to show them my tail in the tight and twisties. Noone sees where I have gone when I am on it Smile
Unless you've got more power or are a better driver but that stands to reason.

wow a great big 95. U must be proud. Im sure the $50000 was really worth it. I still have doubts about the effort the other drivers were putting in. maybe at the time they were just stunned as to why this guy had wasted so much dough on a gemini.

LOL ....oh please no more I have already pissed myself laughing. Listen guys you cant really claim a scalp unless the driver of the "OTHER" car is actuaaly acknowledgin gthe fact that you wish to race and then actually go past a quarter throttle.

Beat an excel a couple of times... one of those ones with the big rims and gay rear wings

i KNOW he was trying cause we lined up at about 4 sets of lights and he was floorin it.. and got really pissed each time i beat him to 80...

and i beat a mate who was in his 91 falcon, it was his idea to have a drag... and a mate in his corolla.. that was the most fun by far :)

he was convinced he'd beat me.. and i think on paper he'd got more kw/tonne but i gotin front and stayed there

yeah agreed about hte fact they are racing, i don't say i beat them unless i know they were trying...

i even lined up a supercharged v6 VT yesterday just for fun and i was in front until about second gear lol
