After much anticipation I've finally got my car together for a 400 meter
dash with my bro's L2.

The 1st gear alright with a slight tyre spin, went to a second gear
another spin but with about 1/2 a car ahead of Bro's L2, third gear kena
Tapau from Bro kau kau!!!

Bro's L2 big piping with one tabung, mine big piping two tabung...

Men what can I dod to improve?

Look at the size of the two cars first.

One is a Kancil, the other is not.
So the power to weight ratio in this case is quite obvious

for quarter mile sprint, l2 can tapow a lot of cars. compare the weight
ratio to yours. definitely l2 is very light. and how about your wheel size?
i played with an l2 before along kesas, after the toll, he tapowed me, but
right on after 5th and rolling, can tapow him one. short burst, l2 is very
good, but long distance, he got to think twice.

hi mate,

if the L2 is stock, your 4G91 will have a hope to hit it back... but if
the L2 is moded, forget about it... even the GTI or PUTRA have a hard
time againts those little L2 or L5 in 400m dash!

it's normal for NA to go up 1st and 2nd due to the turbo wheelspin or
what not..., but after 3rd the car power no more, so can beaten easily by
those turbo cars!

there got one chance to bring this L2 down by playing 500m or above...

well..dude..
this's not the 1st time i heard bout this...
as my fren's averagely done up 4G91 satria was almost tar pau by his
fren's L2 kancil too...
well..my guess is..the force induction and power to weight ratio are the
two main factors for that to happen...hmm

woah..then we really have a problem here, this is not right well maybe My
car couldn't cut it at 400m..but a full load kelisa demolishing a Satria
1.6 is spooky man..

I guess it's alright if it's up to the power to weight is the reason that
I got tapaued..but last Saturday Bro had a 700m run with a B16c..Guess
what 1st and 2nd side to side, 3rd gear b16 managed to distance, however
during third my bro misgeared so that explain the B16 getting the
advantage..somehow I think without the misgearing the L2 would only get
tapaued by half to 1 car...man iamagine what it will do to my car man..the
L2 will sure tapau by at 1 tiang...ain't that scary??

Quatrro,

was it in a sprint test? or saja saja racing?

but with turbo and all our cars are more than 1000 cc then the L2's!!
couldn't we at least give a good challenge..what is lacking? the turbo
mechanism definitely but can we at least have minor mods to at least have
a competitive run...I feel like selling my car already.. :-(

maybe we should declare war over this small warriors!! :-D
