results of max vs monte vs probe!

well we went at it last night, and it was a good race. IT was from a start and off the line the monte pulled ahead(damn rear wheel drive) but i had the probe. around 45mph i was ahead of the monte by half a car and the probe was pulling on both of us. around 65-75 i had about 1 1/2 cars on the monte if not 2 and about half a car on the probe and it stayed pretty much that way up until 105. we shut it down at 105 cuz i didnt want a ticket and the monte tops out at like 110. None the less 2 more kills for the max!! Although the probe looked like it got a bad start, but when we shut it down i was ahead and still pulling, thank god for the VQ!i think even if the probe was more expierienced i still would have beat him though, because i only break torqued from 2.5 grand and i usually go from about 3.5

You and I both know you cannot brake torque a Maxima that high...

actually, what i do is hold it at about 2.5 and then about a second or so from when I launch i hit it up to about 3.5 then not even a tenth of a second later i drop my foot off the break and floor it works rather well for me!
