4 certainly dont race rx7s cuz youll really get owned

5 dont race supras, 300zxs, or any other japanese sports car made during the "280 max HP" agreement... cuz youll get owned

6 dont race ANYTHING with a turbo cuz youll get owned

7 dont race cars that "should" yield a close race such as SRT4s or old SLKs cuz even though you have a chance, youll more then likely get owned if your on stock 225ers.

8 dont race anything AWD that isnt a van or suv cuz youll get owned

9 BEWARE of some vans and SUVs because some are faster then our cars from the factory.

10 BEWARE of cheap or old cars that have minor bolt ons. theres a good chance youll get owned.

you want some real tips? buy any of the cars mentioned above or dump 8-10 grand and buy a turbo with some REALLY big rear tires and rims. then youll have a chance against #s 2,3,7,9 and 10 assuming they are bone stock.

good luck!
You sure put a lot of effort into proving that you're an idiot.

rear sway bar would help with wheel hop. front bar would be useless.
