Default Video: From a dig- SS3800/Performabuilt Level 2

I know the video is kiinda crappy but the camera was having a hard time staying focused. Mods are in my sig. Launched at 2k rpms and tires spun for a split second but the Nittos grabbed great overall and I think it was a good launch for the street.

Check it out, comment, whatever...

Nice vid. Car sounds excellent. Just shows how drivetrain mods and gearing can have such a big impact on performance.

Thanks everyone for the comments. Ya, it doesn't make that much power or have that much done to it, but the mods I have done seem to work well together.

I wonder how a small cam would do? Hmm....

yeah i am making a lot of changes to my car and it won't be running for a while. i am hoping my stall helps out quite a bit. with the stock stall i couldn't pull better than 2.0 60-ft times and that is when i was hooking on nittos. i ran 12.6 two passes in a row at gateway so i figure that is all it had in it. i am kind of dissapointed in my time considering i have a tr224 and tsp 5.3 L heads plus full bolt ons but i guess the times come from a good stall.
