Default AutoX Videos

I made a new thread, because I swear you could edit the title...

I've got some in car videos and spectator videos from AutoX yesterday that I will be posting when I get home. I will also post the videos of my step-dad and myself's runs this weekend (13th) at the strip, he'll be in his G8.

About AutoX, I took third in my class out of seven... Ran a 48.8, my friend in his CRX ran a 48.0, and an engine swapped old Rabbit ran 48.5. If I wouldn't had botched my last run, I would have won. There's always next season.

Only got my slower runs.

Nice work JP, thanks for sharing! Hard to tell from the vids, but did you have to shift into 2nd??

Stayed in first all day, I figure that was easier on it than shifting back and forth... I'd guess my average speed was between 35 and 42, counting the turns and such, but I sat at limiter a few times. I didn't even think about using the DIC...

Good job JP, and your car sounds great. Thanks for sharing the videos. How did the G8 do and what cars did your stepdad run against?

EDIT: Just realized it doesn't say drag videos... Will fix.

Why haven't I seen pics of this car? Is it flat black? Where can I see pics?
