That was the race where I kinda just spun forever and then smoked my clutch all 2nd gear.. then when I shift to 3rd I finally reallized what happened and I say "What the ****" Wow 3 cars looks like alot on tape... Wonder how the rest turned out... See ya tomorrow guys And thanks for getting one vid up already ghost.. I know it ain't easy
Nice! I was waiting for it forever...
Man, DIE DIE, you really did have a horrible take-off... But it looked like the distance stayed the same after that. Nonetheless, good race!

Nice beanie, Carlos.
Yeah you're telling me... My launch made about a 6 car difference in the 2nd race becuase I beat him by the same amount as he beat me in this vid.. << and the 2nd launch was still far from perfect You can hear after that little chirp it's just clutch smoking in 2nd.. I thought I had traction for some reason so when I shifted to 3rd I was like "WTF" cause I bogged to like 3,800 rpms Never had that happen to me before... it's worse than missing a gear.... I witnessed my friend in an SE-R spec-V do it a few times tho, so I knew was happened afterwards.....
^BTW I didn't even notice he jumped early until I just saw the vid... oh well I still would have lost that race bad.... my launch was PATHETIC. I'd have done better starting in 2nd gear
see ghost... if you never woulda bought an SE-R, non of this shit talking would happen... hahaha and for buying one, i want to thank you everyday i cant wait to get home and read all this drama on the racing forum.. reminds me of the good ol' days back when SWT used to post and we were all hooked on his stories ahaha

what ever happen to swt, i havent seen any stories from him in a few months ....
i give carlos props though, he's got guts...and it just proves how consistant auto is, and that it's technically "better" for bracket racing.
as for beating a stock Z, nah...dont think so. i doubt it would even beat an auto Z. but definately be a closer race. maybe se-r only losing by 1.5 cars instead of 3.
anyhow...it's cool you guys did it. and got it on film, but in my opinion die die shoulda still walked with the 20 bones. 2 wins for ghost with die die winning 3 in a row kinda proves that once the z got his driving down you weren't doing nada.
at the end of the day though, a civic si woulda prolly beat the z if he's bogging out of the hole and missing gears...momentum is so difficult to make up. think im joking give a similar car the go, even if he's stock...it takes a while to catch them even if your modded. but you will catch them..trust that.
it will take 6mt vs 6mt and auto vs. auto to finally put this puppy to bed.
and im still wanting to see the outcome of my 3.5se vs the ghost!
here a prime example of a really fast car loseing to a civic...lol
goes to show in street racing the outcome can be anything . i understand exactly what you are talking about man.
"I just lost to an SE-R" - this quote is priceless... Gotta give you both props for meeting up and finding a good spot and being CIVIL about this ish - during and after the race.
Anyway, TheGhost post the rest of the vids up - so we can see DIE DIE put some distance on you as well.
DIE DIE, from the way the camera is shaking looks like you had a ton of WHEEL HOP. Doesn't even seem like you were spinning out normally...
I just want to thank The Ghost for taking the time to race as well as take some video footage. Nice!

yeah from the sound it didnt even seem like you were spinning tires. it was more like ...sqwauk,sqwuak,sqwuak...then you got some grip
Superskeleton.. he's clearly swinging from someones pube sack. the only thing superskeleton drives is his d1ck into the palm of his hand.
as for the "owned" comment i made, 3 cars is owned thats IMO my opinion. Not being a hater. carlos only won due to the Z messing up. as i said all along, all things being equal...the Z is faster. sure it's possible for a se-r to win....but it's possible a Si could too...or a sentra se-r or a lot of other cars if someones missing gears and bogging launches.
but like i said...if you think im hating, it's your opinion...and everyones entitled to one. but if your posting on a alti board, and you dont even have a alti...dont you feel a little nerdy doing that?

That was a weird video, but if you guys still need someone to host the other vids and you have AIM, message me under the name PlanoSER and I'll try to get em up for you. I want to see the other ones!
