Video: Supercharged C5 Corvette Accelerates

Tonight I was screwing around and made a cheapo camera mount for my dash with $23 of supplies from Lowes, so I decided to try it out with a short clip. It's really a cool little idea that will work on any car with just a compact digital camera with "movie mode", I'll post pics of that later as well. Remember, this is shot with a compact digital in "movie mode", so sights & sounds are not the best

Cool deal man. Just cursious,..since we have a very similar setup...minus the alky,...and different head units(possibly intercoolers, I have two, I believe you have a large single). Thanks for the reply G.

Thanks Everyone For The Compliments. I took it up to 140mph under moderate acceleration. I was just checking out the camera mount, which fell off my dash the following day under harder acceleration, still just spinning the tires this time. After watching the vid I was not impressed with the display of power so I took it out & "Hammered It"
