Audi R8 won't race for money "Solstice"

[Badass_Forever]

Little back story, my buddy did a 2jz swap on his solstice. "700hp+" We setup a large local car meet and were filming it for our website, the guy in the R8 was acting hard thinking he was better then everyone else, my buddy was shutting him down and told him he would race him for 5k, the guy thought he was joking and started making fun of his solstice.

The R8 is quick at the start

We are a very close car group, we dont hate on each others cars, we all look out for each other the way car guys should.

Better than a LS swap but would still rather have the R8

 

[72SBC]

I'll race you for 5k

The solstice moves the **** out

Very impressive build.

I love it when someone goes against the norm. Successfully!

Cool video until what looked like 3rd gear pulls in a neighborhood. I may be wrong.

That's a bad solstice! I can't stand people like that. Talk all that trash but when money is involved they won't do it.

 

[HISSMAN]

You never had your Solstice, bra!

Very nice!

My thoughts exactly. OP's friend is one of "those guys".

Looks like a Pontiac Solstice, IMO.

Edit: ^ Damn you!

First off, looks like a solstice.

That second video was cool. I wish we could get a wide variety of cars like that to our meets out here. Everyone is so separated based on what they drive.

Cool vid.

I don't remember that R8 at all.

Me too..and then I'd trade that R8 in immediately

 

[Whippled3v]

Not sure if I'm blind or not but I never saw it race the R8? Whole lotta not racing in that video...

Something a little off to me about a big man in a Solstice lol
Quick little car though

 

[jcosta79]

That's a pretty fast girl's car.

Probably doesnt have money left over to bet after buying an R8.

 

[low03tb]

I don't care if the Solstice was 1000hp....I'd still take the R8 any day of the week

Funny vid though. Guy did seem like a dbag

Pretty much dead on. Cool car right up to the parking lot burn outs and flying through neighbor hood with no front end.
Gets it a thumbs down
