I have a real bad headache.... I left my cell at home, so im in for the night. Tommorow DEFENITLY!

[GP99GT]

I will be there tomorrow night...and heres the outcome of the race(s).

First race, was kinda embarassing for Pat, i think he wasnt ready or something. We took off, i blasted away at the start, he didnt catch up, let off around 80mph i think.

Second race, was from about a 45 roll, up to 90mph...Pretty even there. each pulled a bit and lost a bit.

Third race...we were at a light...light went green. We took off, i left him at my back bumper, smelling my exhaust....we got to about 80-85mph, and he started pulling on me, let off around 95 for the upcoming turn.

I win x3, but if the race was longer he would have probably won.

race #1: No, i wasn't ready. too busy trying to film

race #2: this is the infamous "s-turns" on rt. 23...we went from a roll, stayed even. as we hit the turns, RWD owned FWD as i continued at 85 MPH while matt slowed down to avoid plowing into the lincoln-mercury dealership. win goes to me.

race #3: we were at a light, going uphill. pretty even off the launch, Matt pulled slightly. had about 3/4 of a car length on me. then i slowly started to reel him in. as we neared the top of the hill doing about 95 MPH, i pulled even. at the top of the hill is a slight turn, i continued at 100 MPH while matt, being owned again by RWD, slowed down to avoid plowing into the guardrail. again, win goes to me.

however, these races are inconclusive in whether the Camaro or the Grand Prix is faster. We must take it to the track for final bragging rights.

The test results are inconclusive. We need to line up at englishtown.
