GTP vs. GTP w/ Videos.

[DanPrixGTP]

In my previous videos i posted of me and a friend racing, he had an 00' N/A GP, he sold that and bought a 98' GTP that has a fully rebuilt engine and tranny, Ported outlet, SSAC headers, Intake, Bored .020, Stock pulley size, ZZP Canned tune, and SD Hood. We decided to race for the hell of it vs. my stock GTP w/ intake.

From a Dig, (Which im brutal at):


From a 20 roll:


I feel as if the cars are still pretty equal in speed, its just all about the driver at this point. Once he Moves to a 3.4 and a dyno tune, then thats a whole new story i bet.

So whats your method of going from a dig? Pretty impressive how you out drove a slightly modded gtp when you're stock, goes to show how the driver plays important role. Nice vids man, good job.

youtube for better quality!

[DanPrixGTP]

thanks man. I was impressed i won the second race for sure. My method from going from a dig, Stomp on the pedal, usually. But this time i tried to ease into it, and i eased into it to slow.

youtube for better quality!

On my friends phone its real good quality. Then he texted me the videos and the quality went to Sh!t (we have the same phone, Droid Razr). So i dont think youtube would help unless he posted from his phone.

[gtpeddie]

not sure it might help a little i uploaded a vid with my 52 ford on photobucket and it sucked then went to youtube and it was way nicer

[JDrach]

Hold the phones, you're the one in red right? Black gtp with red badge? Red shirt? And your friend is the one in the blue shirt?

[DanPrixGTP]

yes sir. Why?

[JDrach]

Cause i got confused cause thought when you said you did well from the dig that you were the one who won, but you didnt...so im confused with the from the dig (which im brutal at) if you lost? Unless it was sarcasm? Iunno

[DanPrixGTP]

I suck at racing from a dig, i cannot get a good start, ever. Which is why i said i was Brutal at it. Brutal = Bad.

With that being said, I suck from a dig, i lost that race from a dig..

Get it?

[JDrach]

Touche lol. I thought brutal as in great. Guess that work can be taken in multiple ways :P

[TheNoob23]

when you send a video through MMS it compresses it and the quality goes to ****.... your friend would have to upload them from his phone for better quality

[blueguy]

Why is it hard to get out of the hole?

Put car in 2.

Put foot on brake and gas, with TCS off.

Hold revs at like 2k, let go at like half throttle and keep giving it more hell as you feel the tires break loose then jam the gas around 20-30...it's stock...it should hook by then. Once you're done spinning, shift it to drive....or hold it in 2 so you can run out the revs longer in 2nd.

[PurpleGuy]

Do you have your email linked to your phone? What I do is email myself the video. Then get the computer, save it to that. And then upload the video to youtube. Keeps the original quality.

[Slowpoke]

Sounds tough, I've heard from a certain former member here that launching a GTP takes REAL skill. Apparently, it's super duper hard to do....such a torque monster.

[blueguy]

Oh Verz is my hero.

[JoRoW99]

That looks about the same as the race i had with a stock GTP...sadly. (when i was on the stock pulley)

[Iceman6669]

Hum... Next time you guys are hanging out let me know... I wanna get in on the re-match...

[blueguy]

Next month, set it up.

I'll teach this Dan guy how to drive and video from cars and the road.

Get it right-o.

[DanPrixGTP]

Hum... Next time you guys are hanging out let me know... I wanna get in on the re-match...

im sure you dont wanna drive 40 minutes to have a 10 second race.
