Default In Car Video of Me at the Track

Sorry for the lack of editing. I don't have the software to edit yet. Before everyone tries ripping me a new one for granny shifting, my tranny has lasted me about 7 1/2 years without any problems because I shift like a little old lady. I'll sacrifice the 2 or so tenths so I don't have to keep rebuilding the darn thing. I launched at about 4500 rpm in this video. I'm trying to find the ones where I was launching at 5500! Gotta love that 12-Bolt/Textralia combo!!!
Mods are in my sig.

Hey there, Mark! Everyone, the picture of my car in my sig was taken by the guy standing by the rail in the video.

I ran either a high 11 or real low 12 second pass. My best 60' was about a 1.65 but you can hear that I bogged real bad so I'd put it at a low 1.7.

Yeah. That reaction is a bitch because of the way I launch the car. I hold the rpm steady (usually at about 4500) then when I see that last yellow come on, I hammer the throttle and a split second later I dump the clutch.

It's a lot quieter from inside the car. I was surprised that you could even hear my shifter hitting the gears. And in case anyone was wondering, that rattling noise after I hit the finish line was about a buck 50 in change in my cup holder. LOL I gotta rememeber to take it out next time I record.
