Gotcha :thumbsup: I think I remember seeing that Supra at the other GTG, very nice.
We still need our rematch. :coolman:


My damn car sways at WOT though. Still can't figure it out...the wheels may be off balance.

That's a shame more didn't turn out. When the weather gets nice we will have a big GTG. Did you do a roll against the STI ??? Let me guess how it went.... :eek:

We were not racing, I will not take on a 2.8 cobra from a roll in an STI :nono: now from a dig on Street is a different story.
Gene BTW your car was all over the road when you took off, I thought it broke loose.

I here ya. I went from a dig against a STI a while back, ( not sure if he was modded or not, I had I/E/T ) and he got the jump but I reeled him in, was not a very long run though. I am very impresssed with those Subi's. My girlfriend has a Forrester, and her brother has a WRX. Both are very nice. :thumbsup:
Look forward to seeing your ride at the next GTG.

Really. I always wondered if it was something you could actually see. Nope, it wasn't traction reasons why my car did that....I hit it in low enough rpm's where traction wouldn't be an issue.

My car just sways at WOT. It's actually kind of scary since you swear the car is going to lose it. I had a thread about this issue, but never really found the definite reason for the swaying. First I thought it was low tire pressure, but that is not the case. Then I checked my axle bolts, they were tight. So I'm thinking the tires are not balanced properly anymore.

I'd like to go from both a roll and a stop just for sh*ts and giggles. You'll kill me from a stop.

Its not tire balance, but over size tires may cause that, Did it do it before those tires? 275s up front and maybe loose balljoints :shrug:

It has only done it on these tires. But this is a problem that only started a few months ago.....thousands of miles were already on the tires when it started. Plus, as mentioned above, 275's are the stock size.

Yeah, I should. Ideally I'd like to hold off until I buy my new tires though. I always get an alignment when I install new tires.

If it is the alignment, wouldn't the problem be there every single time then? It is there most times, but not 100% of the time.

I really think the tires are out of balance.

When you do alignment should check bearings. Make sure you fix it I don't want any excuses when I pull up next to you, LOL (JK)
