Both cars are sick, you guys are crazy racing at the medley strip in broad daylight. LOL. My friends always ran banshee's there on that same 1/4 mile marking.

wow, it seems the slowmaro hung pretty well against a 9 sec dsm. a bolt-on auto car on a shot would most likely run mid 10s at best.

oh and i like the "he's got coffee.." ha

Isnt that the same dsm that went 9.00 at 150+ in another tread here. If so that camaro put up a hell of a fight. If not for DSM getting the better reaction time, i think the camaro may made it closer race, but still would have lost. I love theses races except im always torn on who to root for.

To try and get more traction on the hole shot.

Am I the only one that thinks that him doing that actually caused more harm than good as the springs sprung back harder. Good runs, I'm impressed that the fbody hung in like that given his mods. DSM's are pretty sick when built right.

I'm quoting what the camaro owner said from another forum.
"Guys , i own the black camaro (MR MOTION) i gave it a shot but due to the shity gravel type pavement i has to leave on motor until my progressive system came on ( MY FOOT ) maybe 100 feet out the nos came on and i hased the tires . that ASAP ECLISE hooks on ice ! call out 2 coming soon better road . like i told the video guys if u see my car wheeli its going to be a good one .
