Looks like you're really moving out too! We would have been a good match. My fastest was 164mph.
In that first video, once the green light lit, I counted to 4 to give him a lead and see if I could catch him. Didn't think I was going to, but finally ripped by him only about 100ft from the 1/2 Mile marker. He hit 141mph to my 163mph in that video. Close!

thanks man, yeah it was a blast. I know now what I need to fix before running it hard again. Brakes and handling were great considering I have no ABS or TCS. Even driving home in the rain was not bad.

there were some big shop builds in the 200's. My buddy was probably one of the fastest garage built cars that didn't require a pit crew. lol His supra went 198mph and can be seen walking away from this twin turbo viper.

You could do either, but the best numbers seemed to be from a dig more so than a roll. The vette guy wanted to do a dig and the supra guy wanted to do a roll. i obliged both and didn't really care. I'd prefer to do a dig though there is not much prep so you can't launch really hard.
