Payback VS. Blue Balz With Hot Shoe Mary Pozzi
 
Chris, let's settle this once and for all at RTTC. I've been thinking and if Mrs. Pozzi will agree to it, she drives both our cars on the autocross at the end of the day, Best car wins. I think that's the only fair way to compare in that venue. She's an autocross champion and it's not my strong suit. I do want the benefit of her making a few runs in my car to get a feel and allow me a tire or shock adjustment before the real deal. She gets 3 runs in each car at relatively the same time. Best CAR wins.

I'll handle the driving in the road race and 0-100-0 events as I feel more capable in those venues.

I am running R888's so I'm willing to give you a reasonable handicap. We can figure that out.

Can the Big Block garage built bruiser, take down the almighty LS7 pro build known as Blue Balz?:D :D You in?

Gauntlet thrown! I will be watching this!

(Mrs. Pozzi I would be honored for you to drive my car too if you can squeeze it in. It's an unsophisticated knuckle-dragger but it's 3090lbs with r888's :unibrow:)

DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMMM!:drive:

skatinjay27 03-07-2012 04:41 PM

she aint gonna drive that drag racer car!:lol:

Vegas69 03-07-2012 04:50 PM

It doesn't have to be Mary. Another accomplished driver is OK as well. When I hand over the keys I'll make it very clear not to worry about rev limiters, cone rash, tread depth, etc. Let it rip! Does David have a ride this year?

intocarss 03-07-2012 04:57 PM

I'm pulling for the Old School BBC to woop ass on the LS stuff!

NAIL IT AND RAIL IT VEGAS! :willy:

I think you need an extranormal video to really call him out.

SLO_Z28 03-07-2012 05:00 PM

The best thing to get a real comparison would be to get someone thats not familiar with either car but a consistent and good driver to drive both.There is going to be a LOT of driving talent at that place.

tones2SS 03-07-2012 05:17 PM

This is gonna be good!:yes:

BBC71Nova 03-07-2012 05:50 PM

Dayum. People getting called out by the ol' big blocks. Now we are talking. One of very few reasons being closer to the west coast would be nice. You guys have fun and don't forget the cameras :)

Spiffav8 03-07-2012 05:54 PM

I'd be more than happy to fill in as the driver in both cars if Mary is unable. Hey I may not be a professional driver, but I am used to going fast. :lol:

Seriously....this is one more reason that I'm glad to be attending RTTC this year!

:thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Ron in SoCal 03-07-2012 06:04 PM

This (thread) is gonna be EPIC...:lateral:

intocarss 03-07-2012 06:07 PM

Spiff or Mary can do the Auto-X... And if you want to see who's faster in a drag race, I'll launch that bitch (I have some experience in drag racing) :woot:

HRBS 03-07-2012 06:07 PM

Todd..... will your ass fit on this ?

Trust me when I say this ... I'm not familiar with EITHER car so will be perfect as an impartial shoe.

And I can be bought ...

Mary, I'll talk to Dave. :unibrow: :lol: We have a hot shoe!

Steve, that platter looks about the right size for a pair of blue balz. :rofl:

You just made my day, budro. :cheers:

Cris@JCG 03-07-2012 07:48 PM

Just remember ! No excuses... This is my first all out pro-tour car that I have built.. but feel confident in what I have built!

This will be fun! Wish I was going now!! :yes:

Cris@JCG 03-07-2012 07:57 PM

We should start a poll.. See what our fellow Lat-G member think!

Vegas69 03-07-2012 08:11 PM

Cool with me.....

Richio1 03-07-2012 08:52 PM

Damn, wish I could be there to see it play out... Please do us all a favor and get some video footage for us to drool over.

I can see it already, more and more grudge matches like this matching car and drive against each other with comparable vehicles. Someone call Speed and pitch it as a replacement for Pinks.

Spiffav8 03-07-2012 08:54 PM

We might need to add a good ol fashion drag race where these two go head to head. :unibrow:

Maybe come up with a points system, make time count for points and certain events have more weight than others. This could become a trend.

Also, in for video.

67zo6Camaro 03-07-2012 09:29 PM

Yes, Yes... Yes! I'm almost there! Come on keep it coming... come on give it to me. I like it this way...

Lol
this is good stuff

Sorry Todd, saw this thing in person recently at the test and tune.... it's fast so my vote is for BB.

And as a side note, if I remember correctly we were pretty close at the last RTTC. When I was chasing this thing at the recent airport test and tune it just kept getting faster and pulling away from me.

You would not want to see that one... LOL

DFRESH 03-07-2012 09:37 PM

And the hits just keep on coming.

Track Junky 03-07-2012 09:43 PM

BB is still going through growing pains, I'm likeing Payback for this one. :thumbsup:

73CPCAMARO 03-07-2012 09:47 PM

Todd's car is very nice, but I just drove Blu Balz and it is REALLY FAST! Cris, I hope you made those changes we talked about. If you get them done, watch out Todd! No tire handicap will be needed. This will be fun. :D

Brian

Vegas69 03-07-2012 10:10 PM

Brian, thanks for conceding the tire handicap. :lol: :cheers: If you say it's fast, it's fast.

Hey, I just want to see how my garage built car stacks up to one of the nicest pro builds pro touring has ever seen. I can guarantee you one thing, it's not anywhere close to the same car that was there last year. :unibrow:

I like being the under dog.
