Maybe some of you NX experts can give him some tips on how to launch it so his tires dont go up in flames while the lightning is getting away.

Raced again today, this time I used some of your advice. We marked off a perfect 1/4 mile course on the same road we raced last time. We pulled up to each other at our starting line, I did the three honks on the third we launched. I gave it some thought about hitting it right off the line ad decided I might just spin the entire way so after we launched he jumped on me and I was at his rear bumper, I immediately hit the nitrous at 10mph and need I say bye bye lightning!!!! I pulled on him hard,I had about 1 to maybe 1 1/2 trucks on him all the way until we hit the finish line, although if we would have kept going I'm sure he would have passed me pretty soon. It was one hell of a race, need to get one on video for you guys, just need to find my damn camcorder!!!GREAT RACE
