raced a SC400

I was very disappointed tonight I raced a SC400 with chrome 18s and he barely beat me I dont know if his car was jus sow but I always thought they were pretty quick but I guess not. Does anyone know whta they run in the 1/4.

depends what you raced. 18" wheels doesn't say that much.

its not that im disappointed I just expected his car to beat me by at least a car length not 2 ft. I was proud to be that close with my automatic.

My brother has an SC400 and they are not that quick. My friend raced him with his I30 and lost by a car length and he has no mods.

I think the GS400 is the faster of the two. I raced my friends GS from 0-70 or so, two times. The first time he beat me by 2 cars and the second time I got a better launch and he beat me by 1 car.

I could keep up through first gear then when we hit second he just walks me like crazy. The GS has a 5 speed auto and that 2nd goes like crazy!
