Few runs from last night. Not the best races/vid in the world but it's better then some lame *** story

First run with 5.0 I spun pretty bad. 2nd run I hit the limiter and let out Last run is pretty clean for both parties and the gopro almost flew off the car. His car hauls *** and we have a good rivalry going



Original race with me and 5.0 before he made changes.

Good video! Who tunes it? Mine has a spot like that around 3000rpm. However mines only on a base tune still and has had no data logging

This may seem like a weird question, but I'm curious....

Is it real hard to see the dash/gauges on the vettes? I ask because the fella in the last vid seemed like he had to duck his head to see the tach/speedo. It just looked awkward, like it would get annoying after while.

Good video though, all cars seemed to move out pretty damn good.

He is a local tuner. He is good however he hasn't tuned a mono blade in 3 years so next time it goes in I will have him work out the bugs.

Ha yea a light would be nice. However it just needs traction. It blew the tires off in the 45 degree weather Hard to bead a fast car that is hooking.

Good runs man. You ought to look into getting a BPS 73mm TB. Dual blade, should be easier to tune for.

Miss mine already.

Edit: Also the VMP 67mm TB flows almost as much as the monoblade
