He claimed his clutch Slipped...and let out.....inreality he was getting pulled on. You can Clearly hear him get into 2nd and then let out

Are you being completely serious right now..... Listen to the vid he did not let out, when you let out your trans does not slam back. He pulls you right away from the jump and then you jump ahead when he clearly ****ed his shift. 303/360? In a 3800+ lb car vs 340/420 in a 3400+ lb car. Story does not add up. Race him again and prove me wrong

Saab obviously needs driver mod. Just because the car "should" win doesn't mean it will. Driver skill is more important than mods/power.. Because what good is having x amount of hp if you can't drive the car?

Edit: damnit bill lol

[MoarkatsINmuhtrailer]

In b4 Dave comes in, reads this, watches the video and cries his eyes out

[Bluemagic]

I thought saabs were pretty quick?

[Matt Palm]

i like the cobalt that flys by at the end

[BillBoost37]

Guys..the Ei isn't quite stock.

P.. when is the cam going in? You know you need a big bad cam.

[MoarkatsINmuhtrailer]

Yeahhh rockers and two intercoolers ain't cuttin it

[BillBoost37]

Ehhhh you'd be surprised. The dyno shows the SSEi at 301whp. The input shafts he snapped (2) said something as well. This Ei has my garage door remote codes programmed in it's homelink. Not that I had to do the work on it, Pat knows where the tools are.

[MoarkatsINmuhtrailer]

It shows my local ssei higher ...

Btw pat, Ahmet would like to run again haha
