Default Surprised a Supercharged Fox

I was driving home tonight on Randall going South when I saw a Fox Hatch ahead of me and heard him pretty good too, sounded very nice and healthy. I ended up behind him, he got on it a bit, when he hit 2nd gear the tail swept left a bit as it fought for traction,I stayed with him and went into the left lane when I had an opening. We nailed it at about 45 and I pulled about a car on him and when we slowed down he said he thought my car was fast, I tried to tell him same to you but he couldn't hear me. We tried a few times to talk and he finally could hear me, he asked me what I had and I told him a blower, he obviously had a blower as well but said he only had an XCam but I heard the blower so I'm not sure why he didn't own up to it.

Anyway it was a nice run and he had a very nice car which I'm sure was in the 12's so it would have been nice to line up with him at a light, he turned off before we could. If you're on this forum let me know, I'd like to see that car close up.

Nice kill, but if he only had a blower he was probably quite a bit lower in the hp department than you...but they are light

Nice kill either way!

Sounds like an awesome run. I've had people think my fox was blown. Around 3.5-4K and up you can hear the air being sucked in the intake(which is still stock). Sounds similar to a SC and fools people who don't know any better[8D]

Gear drives have a constant to them, he was running eitherPaxton, ATI or Vortech and sounded much like mine as he was driving whine noise wiseand for all I know was sand bagging it, who knows? His car is much lighter so even if he was making less power he might have reeled me back in if we had a chance to run it for a longer period. I'm going to keep an eye out for him, I'd like to see it again, even if I lose to him.
