gotta love brake-boosting

Uuuh... bolding the brake and the gas to put load on the engine, in effect building boost early so when you let off the brake you rocket off.

Brake boosting? Was he?
listen to the car before he takes off that first time, you can hear the engine whining and the turbo spooling up right before he rockets off

lol him brake boosting just means he is smart haha, get him a good jump

I dont think he needed a good jump, he could have given the vette a few carlengths and still would have taken him.

I love when 4 cylinder cars beat v8's and I'm not a Chevy fan at all, but I agree with nick_200321. Street races like that are hard to judge because it did look like the vette let off. I'm not trying to take away from that Talon cause that was a sweet car...I love the sound of the turbo spooling up. I guess we'll never know unless the vette driver is going to come on here and admit the loss haha.

When he gets on it all you hear is the turbo sucking air, thats what I was talking abt. How is that the wastegate?
