Video from the track
Tuesday, April 26, 2005 7:39 AM
Well I took the POS to the track last week....didn't do as well as I hoped but I'm going again this week to change that. I just didn't drive it very well and I only got two (@!#$ty) runs in so I didn't have much time to adjust my technique.

Oh well, here's a lil vid put together by some friends of the night we had, enjoy!

Right clicky save as

Haha yeah the times weren't BAD but they definitely were disappointing compared to what I expected.

I should clarify about the Evo and the GSX, the Evo kid had never taken his car to the track before so he was really scared to launch it, obviously haha. However, he was doing like 14.8's and trapping 104mph! The car has huge potential once he launches it right.

The GSX has literally no 2nd or 4th (or reverse) gears, soooo that explains his nice launches and then like a 16 or 17 second time haha.

Haha thanks guys, well to give you an idea of the way I USUALLY launch, that last one in the video was a 1.88 60ft, the first time I went up there when the car was stock I did a 1.72 60ft, so there's definitely room for improvement from what you saw.

Another website I'm on is looking to put together a nice big hour long movie of all the cars, so I'll have to post that up when it's done, mwahhahaa.

Yep, pretty cool vid.... I was about to say, damn the EVO was slow but i'll cut him some slack since it was his firs time. I gotta get out more and maybe make some vid's of my own... Very enjoyable.

"I think the guy in the vette's gonna beat the Subaru....Anybody with me?"

"Ooh, the Nissan's having some problems"

Wow. They should have just kept their mouths shut...

Good video, I liked the donuts at the end.

^ Haha I was waiting for someone to mention the donuts.

My best time of the night was a 13.1 @ 103. Disappointing.

NED isn't really a slow track, it's just that I launched and shifted too high, basically drove @!#$ty compared to how I drove when it was stock. And unfortunately I didn't get enough runs in to tweak my driving to make it all that better, that's why I plan on going again this week to redeem myself.

The Evo ran slow times but his traps were insane. He trapped like 104mph, that's higher than I trapped and I ran like 1.7 seconds quicker! Once he gets his launches down his car will run like hell.

Thanks guys, glad you all are enjoying it! I'll be sure to post up more as they're made.

yeah but as his e/t drops, his mph might drop a couple as well...either way, good mph for the guy...just tell him to bring his balls this time....launching an AWD car right takes balls lol
