g37 needs to race an L99 A6 - drag strip

Every week this guy posts videos of a local G37 racing an L99 A6.
He videos usually have a G37 racing an L99 A6 with 22" wheels or some issue (can't launch, etc) The L99 A6 (stock to lightly modded) usually runs mid 13s or slower.

It would be nice if someone in his area (Oklahoma) with a stockish to lightly moddded L99 A6 would show him how a well tuned L99 A6 (ones tuned properly not running big wheels) can run.

Here's is latest video thread he started.

This guy's got 3x your post count. Yes he's a troll, but one that spends more time in this forum than you do.
I just wish someone could show him what a well driven Camaro SS can do

And we're talking legal racing at a track (no street racing). Just some friendly competition to prove a point.

Low post count just means someone's not a post whore. I do however see many threads about G35s on here. I come here for camaro info. and news. A lot of trolling lately.

I hardly ever look at that section on this board because of that stupid f*uck. A total looser with nothing better to do then be on this board when he favors nissans.

I don't see why this guy bothers you at all, that's about what the G37 runs stock and he doesn't seem that troll'y to me.

don't worry SGOS252382, my intake and tune camaro ss l99 is faster then him at the track and strip. he didn't want to race last night. I wouldn't even bother worrying about it, against someone who knows how to drag the guy doesn't stand a chance and he understands that.

If it's not a G37 its something else. If he see's an L99 running slow times, he will tape it and post it trying to stir things up.

This is an internet forum for the purpose of knowledge, entertainment, and meeting people with similar interests. So no one should get nasty or overly upset by what someone says.

The main issue is that he (original poster) constantly posts videos where L99s are running slow times. For a long time, he never posted one decent run by a Camaro SS. But he regularly posted real slow runs trying to prove his point. He has done this too many times to count.
Then when we ask to see the time slips, we usually see 2.2+ 60' times and find out the Camaro was running 22" wheels or something.

The recent videos he has posted of L99 running faster times (what I consider normal times) were added after the fact (later on) to help with damage control.

LOL... you are right. I never paid that much attention to the Camaro VS section but damn this guy is a tool...

...and I love the way he gets 6 inches taller when he launches.
