Nics car is a true beauty. Between the pristine paint and FM-5's, that car is to die for. Now get your *** over here and tune my pile Nic!

On my medium boost level which I was running in the video it's right around the mid 700s.

Except that dude in Chandler with the FI Trans AM that killed that srt-10 viper somthing terrible. Still never found out who that guy was.

Lol, that was me... We did a 45-170 run for two runs... I have no traction at all, lol. Even at 120 I floor it in 4th gear and the tires are lit up.

But thanks! Nic is gonna prob gonna be running me soon as I get my car fixed again... Isnt that right nic

really.... hmmm I think you and I should run pump gas to pump gas, and race fuel to race fuel. You would prob win even if I did make more power since ive got 600+ lbs on you, lol.

Here are the all of the vids thrown together from Trent who was riding with me. The dig runs with the bike are comical, talk about sliding all over.

damn nice car man...

I'm quite surprised though that the R1 beat you ... from what i've seen, typically in the 600-650whp range is where the cars start to overtake litre bikes... even the brand new ones..... it takes a good 600+ to start to hold with my bike... i fully expect the 700+ my car will have to stomp my bike

..dawg, that bike was getting RAN down every time. If dude shifted quicker, it wouldn't have been soo close. In that aspect, due to the SLOW shifts, you gotta give the camaro credit, for doing as well as it did. Not bad at all. Watch the vid's with some good volume, and tell me that there wouldn't have been a MAJOR difference if the car would have been power shifted.

The dig races,...I guessed thats exactly how it would have turned out.

OH I know dude, not at all trying to say that you are. The video speaks for itself. The shifts lagged, and he was still running it down. Thats all.

Love seeing video's like that.
