I didnt care that the Ferrari won, the sound from it was awesome.
I dragged mine down StKilda Rd on a Friday night about 7 years ago.

I guess you've never been next to a Ferrari in a drag race. The sound is the best. I'd do it again and be happy loosing. :-)

I was the same, I didn't get the jump at the lights but I kept up with him for a bit then he took off.
He said the only reason why he won was I'm in auto. He said if I was a manual I would've kept up or taken him.
I think it was the lack of experience with the turbo car as I only had it for about 3 months by then. Now I'd take him. :-)

Well, I didn't loose by much last time and now I know how to drive it faster and I've also turned up the power so it should win... But I highly doubt I will have a second go as whats the chances I'll meet the same car again?
BTW, I did have a whinging woman next to me last time and now thats gone it should be a better drag.

I've tried to drag a few Lambos but they never want to drag, but I did have fun with one on the Monash one day. Sounds as good as draging a Ferrari. :-)

i saw a tt soarer drag off a porsche (not an old one nor a pov pak boxter) once from the lights, the porsche was 2 lengths infront through the intersection, then must have had big boost cos the soarer caught up and passed

im confident once my car is flashtuned i'd keep up with anything on the street, should do low-mid 12's but in full street trim and tyres, and its a s simple as pressing go and repeatable

a manual supercar with a nob driving it may be faster in a professionals hands, but a monkey at the lights wont stand a chance and if they do i doubt they will be able to back it up time and again.... i love certain ferraris but LOL at some monkeys who drive them

Thats true, it is all about the person driving the car. By the way if anyone is interested in buying a 180sx, my brothers selling one to get another motorbike...

Spotted a green 96/97 sc400 on the monash heading towards glen wavery, noble park direction.

Strange how no one has seen me on the roads yet, feeling the hurt haha jk. I drive it every day from home to the city along the monash, here's a bit of fun, clearly I have nothing better to do with my time it needs a bit of spicing up.

Fist person to spot me, is my shout on a epic size can of red bull (haha tight ass) all you need to do is quote the plates. Here's a helping start R _ _ . 0 _ _

If you guys saw the Soarer that I saw today on Wellington Road (Rowville area) it would have wanted to make you cry and punch the crap out of the driver, was an extremely pain sight. haha

Ken: Yeah, I've been trying to organise a sticker of some sort for us so we know who's a member. It's just the friend i got working on it she's left for London and hopefully be back late next month.


Evan: 4WD ?? never heard or seen a Soarer with that.

Don't think posting stickers here is the correct thread. But I've already got stickers on both sides of my rear windows.

Evan means putting his airbags on really high, I've done that for sh!ts and giggles lol

Saw a green Soarer tt on the monash heading towards chaddy yesterday at around 7:45am ish had stock rims a blue steering wheel cover and a white sticker behind the driver window, gave a dude a wave and he took off like he just stole the car haha.

Anyone spotted me yet? Better yet anyone take the monash freeway from Wellington rd all the way to toorak rd exit in the morning? Funny thing is there all you guys on this forum and I've only every met one other SC member.

I ran into a guy at Shell on Canterbury Rd Heathmont with a clean TT which he had just bought from the car yard next door for $5000!!!!

I referred him to the forum so hopefully we'll see him join up soon.
