Cool vids, but those were the most inconsistent races I have ever seen. You would pull a bus length one time, and the next race you would get pulled. haha.

Yup. Listen to the launch in the second race against the sprayed Camaro...sounds like it had TC on or something, serious bog launch!!!!!

Good videos though, and nice track run.

Launching the car has been a learning experience. The et streets work well at the track, but do not do so good on the street. One thing I have done since most of those runs is add a linelock and now I can get the car to launch more consistent. I am planning on hitting the track tonight with my drag radials to see how they perform over the et streets.

Hey Bro, I loved your vids. I know about ZERO traction. You blew him away from a roll, but you like me got smoked from the dig. We need more people doing quality vids like this. Good sound, and clear enough to watch. Please do some day racing like I do, and post some more. BTW your car sounded bad *** when you stomped it from a roll. That Tach jumped up and you were gone!!!! Bad *** !!

that camaro in the first run you have cammed and sprayed and you run 11.90s that camaro should be in the low 11s if it is tuned and tire is right . I guess my question is did he spray on those runs . by the way nice track times and vid. i also know about crappy launches off of drag radials.

I'm gonna be using video clips on a giant projector next to the dance floor on my "Racer Night". If anyone has any personal vids or non-personal vids that you think would be awsome to se play'n on the dance floor send them to my e-mail on the link below.

Thanks everyone,
C.G.

I actually run low 11.7s and the foruma that was spraying me runs high 11.6s. His spray did not work the first run that is why I chased him down and the second run everything went perfect. The third run from a roll I believe he had traction problems.

I went to the track tonight and the best run was 11.84@118.52 with a 1.74 60 foot and a 7.64 1/8 @ 94.3. The weather was typical louisiana about 88 degrees and close to 90% humidity. It should work out to just above a 2000 DA.

Thanks for the comments! I will try to get some day videos next time I am out Once the winter comes I will have many more track videos.
