so i got a buddy who has a 95 formy just like my former 94 and he keeps ragging and ragging me to "go run them" so we go to the local 1/4 mile stretch agree to go on 3 i count off 1...2...and there he goes he gets the jump by bout half a car and thats where he stays bout 1/2 to 3/4 car length ahead he cheated had we been on the strip he would have red lighted. but thats ok he knows i didn't give it all i had since he jumped so now no more ragging so would this really count as a loss?

Not to me it dont.

Would it count as a loss on the track? No. Therefore you are cool.

street and track are completely diffrent. u chased its a race. in allmost any street racing circle if u had bet on it ud be payin him off.

any mods on the other car? m6 a4? can he drive does it have a lot of miles cause ur car has a whole lot

his is a 6speed with k&n and a 3 inch cat back mine is bone stock his has 114000 miles mine 110000 the 180000 was on the black car pictured below.
he's started telling people mines faster i think they're bout the same. still fun

Dan95, I don't know about by you, but by me if you jump the count (whether by hand signals, horn beeps, etc) you lose from the start even if you win at the end since you broke the start rule, and it doesn't matter if it's a race for fun or money.

So Charm, around me the win would have been yours, not his.

thanks sue

Have to agree with Sue on this. Always been taught that "Cheaters Never Win"

nah! It's not a race unless it's a fair match up. Remember, the goal is to find out which car is faster, not which driver can cheat better!
