Was at the local drag strip and I get lined up next to guy in a white 97+ AWD Talom,with an exhaust.Thought I was gonna get my ass beat,but then I noticed guy was letting his car run in the staging lanes,heat soaking his inter-cooler I believe. So we take off and I put a hole shot on him,which really surprised me,since he had AWD. Well I never looked back. Towards the end of the track he was charging but not engough. I ran a 14.9 to his 15.0. I felt pretty good about this run. I couldn't escape DSM power though. Later that evening in eliminations,I got taken out by a 1G FWD Talon turbo. MOV was like .50 or something. Not flaming just telling a story.

Good kill man. What was the 97+dsm running in the traps and 60' compared to yours? What kind of times are you Neon guys getting out of your cars?
