I love the fact of a forced induction rcf but to me that trap speed is still slower than friends bmw m3. Im so ready to pull the trigger on this kit but its hard to justify the cost when considering that it is still not in the super car status. My friend has a bmw m3 with a jb4 with dp's {500whp/500wtq] and he can do 155 in 1/2 mile with a lot less power. Why did they have to make the rcf so heavy because I really like my car otherwise..

also your car is half the price even with mods, (the Audi is 200k?) so ****ing owned. that guy was pissed
Some people don't care if a "cheaper" car is faster. There are boosted K20 swapped Civics that will beat my Supra even with me making 800HP I wouldn't get pissed there's always somebody faster that spent less. The money spent for power made argument is stupid.


OP: Great runs by the way.

...complete and total hissyfit meltdown. [rofl]

Hes probably more mad that he ruined his R8 for nothing (guy claimed he took out the front drive parts and made the car RWD only... that mind numbing, IMO).

Wow! Can't believe he acted like that in the comments section!! He was super quiet at the event....didn't say a word to anyone. Guess he's really the "desktop champion", lol.
Also, I bet he sells the R8 VERY soon and upgrades, lmao! The R8 sure isn't cutting it.

the r8 v10 is a fast car stock. nothing wrong with it. how can some people not expect to get beat by near 500hp stock cars (RCF) with forced induction added? i wouldn't have been surprised if i had the r8. r8 v10 was what i was going to get too so no biased opinion here.

Well that's disappointing I will find that comment on YT and add my own I know folks with stock exotics that are very humble and cool in person as far as their car not being the fastest. I will admit I drive around looking for exotics and other "fast"cars to pick on lol but 9/10 times no one wants to play.
