Finally got a video of the car uploaded...

I will definitely be making some more since I just bought a better car mount for the video camera, will do some at various angles around the car pretty soon.

Wow my speedo must be off. I just calculated it out and that's totaly doable.

I was just wondering cause I have the same wheels and tires as him and my speedo barely hits 130 when I take it up to 6600.

Yeah your speedo must be off with 6600rpm 3.42 gears and 305 35 18 your 4th gear has to be close to 150mph so your speedo is way way off.

Off topic but nice setup transAm-98

That used to be Dons (Slowhawks) vette. Then he sold it too Marcel. That car is badass. I remember when I went with Don to drop it with the tow company when you bought it. The damn driver couldnt get used to the spec 5 clutch. Me and Don were sitting there like OH BROTHER!! LOL

Yep, that's the car - Don said he got a kick out of the driver konking it out like that and predicted I'd do the same on the first day, which I did (after a few successful hours)

I'm used to it now, after a thousand or two miles

I've been on this forum since the beginning (original member #69) and was on ls1.com and cz28.com before that.

As far as magazines go, I've never had a feature but have been in the 'readers rides' section a couple of times (GMHTP).
