Default Few videos from Sunday night at HMP

A couple of vids we took last night. Car is almost dialed in. One of the plugs seems to keep burning but I think Mike will be able to get that fixed.

Who is that sexy masked man

How well does HMP hook?

I'm getting real sick of HRP not fixing their boards....BOTH are broken now.
1 has been out for atleast 6 months.

I need to frequent a new track once in a while.

Edit- well after watching that video it looks like it hooks pretty well
Do they usually keep up with prep pretty well?

At any of the large events, there are usually afew cars that twist axles/drive shafts.

They prep the track very well.

Yeah, I know its 1/8...I'm just so sick of the boards not working at HRP.

I dont care for 1/8 mile tracks much, but it'd still serve its purpose for getting the kinks taken care of in my tune.

And thanks, it was my first time out with the wetkit...it ran harder than I was expecting for such a small shot.

HMP's track prep is awsome! You better tie you shoes tight if your walking the starting line.

We had a good time last night!

Car looks, sounds, and moves good. Was that at HMP. How your car hooks depends on how much power you are putting to the wheels. High horspower cars 800rwhp and up hook better @ HRP track is better prepped especially if you are there in an event.

HMP just doesn't work as good for those cars. If you are putting down less than 800 you are o.k.

What kind of 1/8 mile times and 60ft times were you running on the videos. Car got small quick!!

Probably has the lakewood 90/10 shocks up front with the 50/50's on the rear and the eibach drag springs. Pretty standard setup for the stangs.
