    In today’s episode we’re pitting a man named Daniel (‪@MPbdy‬) in his refrigerator that happens to drag race against Brian (‪@infinite_B‬) in his hyper tech hyper car with two turbos, a V8, and probably more apps than any of our phones. It’s brute versus beauty today on THIS vs THAT, and we’re here for it.

      So on a Christmas tree for drag racing you let go of the transbrake button when the first amber light comes on. Then the delay box will delay the car leaving until whatever time the driver put in the box runs out. The goal being to have the car leave exactly when the green light is coming on.

      Sucks for the McLaren, the only good race for him was when launch control worked. But a twin turbo is also going to get heat soaked, whereas an NA car isn't affected by it as much. Last race proves it, got the hit and didn't have the power to reel in the wagon after he got passed.

      The 765 runs 9.8-9.9 sec 1/4 mile completely stock… low 9s with a sticky tire. The best time for that wagon is high 9s.
      Plus, that wagon isn’t “stripped”. It has its full interior (front and rear bench seats, dash, door panels, carpet, rear cargo trim, etc). Also, for “purpose built”, all it has is a couple cheap bolt on suspension parts (Summit being the cheap “generic” brand, essentially like Walmart cola). With the cheap 3 way shocks, it can easily be switched to 50/50 and cruise the street with no issues.
      Plus, the wagon has less power and more weight. The 765 even has a traction advantage, thanks to being mid engine and having 305mm (12”) wide tires. This is a non-debatable point since only the wagon broke loose thanks to being nose heavy and having 9” wide slicks.
