I once ripped the shift **** off of a car while I was powershifting and inadvertantly threw it into the back seat, for what it's worth.
And that thing sounds byootiefull!
, and iv punched the dash numerous times, but yes that was very nice drivin... i wish i had some video of my drivin, i was just voted the local "sultan of shift" (i made that up, thank you)

Good driving...I'd put my skills against his, but good driving none the less. Get that car to the track with some tires and see if you can hang with my times...Stock rockers and clutch over hear tho

nice times for a stock internal car.
what mods do u have?
only time i have made it to the 1/4 is when i broke my 10 blt in 2nd with 315/35/17 street tires. Those 10 blts can blow me!
2.0 60" 8.8 1/8 @56 mph almost made it to the end of the 1/4. 200+ tow bill home =(
that was in commerce GA
my 1/8 time at the crappy track is 7.98 @ 87.15 with a 60 ft 1.89
that track is horrible for traction but thats what u get for paying 10 bucks to race there.

I just noticed something RADD: Don't think you should post street racing videos when your signature shows your tag

If you still cant then how often do you drive the car?
Good shifting on his part, but there isnt anything supernatural about it. I think the takeoff is more important.
