A supercharger won't help you against even a stock GTR. I looked at buying one before I got my M3. While it is insanely fast I have not where to drive a car that fast. I would be beat up if I drove a car in Houston with that tight of a suspension. My M3 goes plenty fast for me in the city. The only car I would trade up for my M3 would be a 458.

What makes you think a ESS 650 can't take a stock GTR? Your kidding right ...

I've beaten stock 2012+ and FBO GTR 's at the track and rollons. Due to their added weight, only GTR's with 600whp make it a close race during a rollon against me

It's like saying let's put your car (assuming it is still the one with the mods in your sig) up for a race against a 700hp supra, from the dig will most likely kill it cos of hooking and the aerodynamics of the M3 but if it's from 20+ then he will slaughter you.

Just as my M3 to Supra comparison, this M3 to GT-R comparison is whack. Completely different league of cars. It is like putting a 1500hp GT-R up against a Bugatti, I couldn't care less if the GT-R will win all day, it is NOT stock for stock and I would much rather have the car and lifestyle to go with the Bugatti.
So.... you have never heard of shift s3ctor or any of the other roll/airstrip events.... roll racing is a very serious category these days

Incorrect, my ESS/AR 700 slaughters stock GTR's. Only GTR to get me to date was my buddies Alpha 7 on E85, and that was by a car from 25-170.

Once again, incorrect. An ESS-625 would suffice vs a stock GTR. Much less something like what i'm running (ESS/AR 700) Once again, yes i have slaughtered stock GTRs. Don't believe it? Here's a vid of me putting bus lengths a 458, twice.

There are 8-second GTR's out there.

No M3 stands a chance, this gen or the next two.

Even the roll on events the high power GTR's clean up.

mods in sig - didn't matter much when I crossed paths with Godzilla. the end result was pretty damn similar to what happened in the video.

Yes I have and again the mean nothing to me, my personal opinion that to put your money where your mouth is the race should be from a dig. If you cannot hook your power then it is all a waste.

Lol. I could bring a 600hp Supra with stock internals and have it whoop our STOCK M3's... Would that make any sense to anyone? Not at all. A race should either be stock for stock or modded for modded. Pointless in sitting around here saying you whooped a 458 when you are at 700hp and that thing is stock. Also, it will still get more looks, more attention and more women that you don't know to jump into the passenger seat.

That's your personal opinion, and while you're entitled to it, fewer share that viewpoint nowadays. Ask Unabomber, @ TX2K, the main events are the freeway roll-ons.

different strokes for different folks

i just broke a gear dragracing my car and its going to be about 12 grand to fix. I understand why some of these cars refuse to run from a dig

and the AMS Omega GTR ran the event last year and never left the dragstrip

Just because you have money you know how to race? Lol! I know guys with shit banger civics that could out race a lot of individuals with expensive cars but they don't have a lot of money so they will only ever drive that civic.

Again, I don't know if that event consists of rolling starts or off the line starts but if you cannot hook then what is the point in the race? Think about it...you've put $50,000-$100,000 worth of mods into a car and you go to the line but you just spin out for 5 seconds. Pointless, agreed?

When you go to a track and race, do they let you have a rolling start or from the dig? Obviously from the dig, now we don't need excuses just because it is laps it has to be from the dig, no, it is the SAME concept.

I have a friend with an M5 that is rated at over 500whp, NOT CRANK, and what are our cars rated at whp, 340? I still took him, cos he couldn't hook for sh*t at the time. He was just spinning out for like 3 seconds and couldn't catch up in the 1/4 mile.

As for the person that will reply and say these cars are not made for 1/4, I agree but we are just trying to get a point across. Don't forget guys, all my personal and humble opinions.

My comment was the fact that you took the liberty to call someone "retarded" because they don't agree with your assessment of how racing should be performed. As for your question regarding how racing is started @ the track, NASCAR is raced from a roll.

To me, however, racing is racing....freeway....stoplight....Mexico. I don't discriminate, it's all about the competition and running what you brung.
