Hey all, I’m interested to hear your stories as to which cars you have raced that were very close throughout the run and which car is typically your most even competitor? (besides another SHO)

My friend had a charger RT, think he didn't like being slow and bought a challenger scat pack. Will update on a race against him once I have my rear end fixed

Pontiac G8. Upgraded Cam and Mickey Thompson drag radials. I was chatting with him in the staging lanes, the long lines and minor delays when you actually get out of your car for 5-10 min. Somehow we got lined up and I thought ..oh $h-it.

I had a slower 60’ and faster reaction time but I edged him out at the 1000’ and beyond for an 11.69 to his 11.75. So close that you can’t see him….he’s in my blind spot the whole time, can’t see him, but can hear him. We didn’t talk again after that 9E08A97A C96F 462E B1C6 AFB9FEF8EE30736F6FAB 2203 43D4 8DBA C709DA0DD28B

Here’s the video as well. Second run was against a modified WRX, he missed a gear at the end but I already had him. This was a horrible 60’ on my end. Like a 1.9 and an 11.8.
