Default Vid of several tech members from MIR 11/16

Here's some video from about 6 tech members doing the test and tune at MIR on Sunday. Unfortunately only got one run of MightyMouse before the tape ran out. A few of us got new bests in the cold air.

Saw some of you guys out there, the air was definitely good!

Was going to ask you if you got video of Ashleys car heading towards the bumper but I just watched it all.

I left at about 1pm and missed the 275 dr runs. I may go again next sunday for the last test and tune if anyone is running again. I'll bring a fresh tape and spare battery this time I have the Yellow Collector Edition TA if you see me there.

We were until about 1 as well. New converter under the car and it broke trans case, and oil pan etc first pass. Car went about 10 feet up, 10 down, and done for the day.

Supposedly they have 2 more sundays. Well see you there if we can get it back together

Sorry for the breakage, but that would have been a nice vid! The track was prepped great, especially for the cold weather. I turned a 1.71 60 foot time on my 275 z rated Fuzion crap tires! That actually bent my passenger side stock lower control arm badly too Just ordered some Spohn adjustables but I don't think they'll be here before Sunday.

It was nice to see a lot of f bodies there. My car ran great, got a new best. I will be at MIR for the last two test and tunes hopefully with some more mods done. I will check the video out when I get home from work.

The announcer on that run was talking about "the nasty red nova with the big blower sticking out of the hood is gonna put up some good numbers against the firebird in the outside lane: Ran him down easily. I have another low 9 run of his in one of my vids. I'll have to find it. Matt I'll be there taping again Sunday. That 11.88 on my vid was your new best wasn't it?
