We had both beaten the same E85-tuned SRT-4 on the same night so he came after me but there was too much heat nearby. Then he called me out but when I showed up he said there was a family emergency...then later he said he was sick.

Soooooo got the settlement later on.

Lights were on the whole time?? Maybe front-end lift or YouTube altered lighting I don't know.

Car did a 2.2 60' and 13.0 @ 116 on new street tires spinning the hell out of them in 2nd no matter what I did. It put down 340whp before spinning on the dyno at 5000rpm even after trying to weight it down.

One example would be 0:31. But maybe you are right. It just looked extremely dark in the video.

Why not film the other car instead of the road in front of you ? Not trying to be a dick ,just an idea.

This was the first time I've used the GoPro in the Grand Prix. Got a suction cup mount for it and the windshield was the first place I thought I'd try. I can't control what the other car does, whether it will be to my left or right, faster or slower...so unless I get more than one camera there is always a risk of not capturing the action just right. Maybe the rear window but camera facing forward would capture more, but then it skews the view of how the cars line up.

Yeah I saw that. At one point when I got on the brakes hard the light seemed to disappear as well.
