Default Video of us leaving at #1 of boost ;)

Thought you guys would get a kick out of this video from a few weeks ago. We were testing some stuff in the pits and forgot to set the boots controller back to launch boost. We left the line with #1 of boost and as you can see it took a bit to get the car going Them 275/60/16 drag radials really hook with no power LOL

we have only had the car out for a few races so far.. we have run 8.15 (94mm turbo/3550# camaro/275-60-15 DR's) but really have yet to get after the 1st 200 feet of the track. Its a fine line with the small tires between going rounds and going up in smoke or tire shake!
