Default N2o pass video

No big deal video, but it's the first I have had taken (150+ passes). What's funny about this run, is the fact that I got kicked off my other track for running to fast (11.50 rollbar rule). One of the tech guys works at both tracks, so they were all over on me not to go faster than 11.50. I said ok and I'll just run on 1st stage. Well, this run, it's a good thing I had a crappy launch (track prep sucked) as I would have run a very low 11 or a high 10. This would have caused me to get kicked off this track also, and allready banned from one track for rest of the year. A buddy in our car club shot this.

Nice Run Robert. Fast! That car next to yours looked like a "hunk", but it looked like it was keeping up pretty well on the video

God I love posting this pic, Big Meats. These are 315 18 BFG DR new style tread. The video was taken after approx 100 passes and I think their holding power is limited. I highly rec these as a good street/strip tire, with strip action great. Next year either ET Streets or full on slicks.

Thanks Bandit. Yea a clunker of some sort, I was amazed it kept up like it did, also.

Cool. I hate the 11.50 rule......
Airwolf, yea I hate it also. I have been playing around all summer trying to stay away from it, as I knew I could break it easly. But, what can you do, I'll have a bar for next year.
