RACE my saturn "domesticating" a 300zx twin turbo

So this was literally an hour after i was done tuning, this guy came up to me in a coffee shop at like 2 am wanting to race, so my passenger with my video camera went into his car and vise versa.. and yes his car is right hand drive, so it worked out well... enjoy.

i kept up with one that had some bolt ons, and i'm pretty much stock, he got me on the launch obviously but never really pulled away, i think they are pretty heavy

good job though what did he think afterwards?

They only run a 14.1 stock so they arent really that impressive without some work but with work they can be retarded fast like zfactors

The clutch slipped badly in 2nd gear. Seems like you were riding the clutch in 1st too or I am mistaken ?

Car has got some nice pull. The long gears and high rev limit rock.

Seems like from a roll the 1st time you were a little low on RPM what speed did you start at (1st vid) ?

40 kms an hour in second gear and i still pulled like mad!

yeah it slips in second, i tried to ride it a bit through first to avoid wheel hop and stuff, and it was just hot an the clutch had worked hard all day....didnt smell or anything though...but it is still stock
