I have a video of a stock silvia and a stock itr drag racing. the itr actually won by a half a car. it was a s14 silvia. jdm itr is fast. but those japanese driver's in the videos i have can't drag race very well. they all run slower then expected times.
They cant drag race very well?! Do you know who any of those drivers are and the experience they have? That video is from Best Motoring and the drivers all have competed in multiple race series in japan, they arent desk jockeys from behind desks like those fools from R and T and C and D. And i dont know why you say they arent running the expected times, they arent using a 1/4 mile track so you cant take any of those 400m times literally. I have this video too, and its why i voted for the ITR (not because i have one..really). Of course this vote was a LOT biased considering the number of 240 lovers on this board.
