Wasn't the best day for street racing as it was 37* and there were A LOT of cars on the road but here are a few little snips from Sunday. My car was hitting the boost safety set at 23psi half the day and I had no idea why it was cutting out and dying in the middle of runs (see vette race) once I figured that out **** got hairy..

1250whp 996

One of those 360 fly cameras. Quality probably isn't the best. It has jumped around from cell phone to cell phone. If that was a stab at the video quality you'll have to be more creative next time..

music is neat for intros....but kill it when the racing starts. Everyone wants to hear the cars.

Fast cars I'm sure, but the wannabe thug nasty beats doesn't need to play during the races.

I'm going to take it down. You guys haven't done anything other than whine about the "music" and quality.

The way I see it is we all like *******, and we all dislike music while the races are going lol. I always turn my radio off first thing when I know I'm getting ready to run. At least we're in an agreement..... Well kind of

Don't get me wrong bro, I love *******. And you've got one badass ride. I'd just rather hear the cars racing so I know who hit early, missed gears etc.

hugs

I don't care about music vs no music, whatever you want to put up there is fine with me. Looks like you were trying to go to the grass on one of the pulls lol
