Default Video

Here is a video from Saturday. I am the first car in this video making a qualifying pass and then you can see me get my ass kicked by K9 6 minutes into the video. In the race with K9 you can see that I spun the tires right at the hit (look for puff of smoke behind drivers rear) and then you can see it try to pick the front end back up about 100' out and then sit it back down real hard again when it spun the tires again. (you have to pay attention to see all that) Either way it was UGLY!
I would have loved to seen what it would have run on that pass if it wouldn't have spun because it had some power piled in it and the mph was pretty damn good considering I had pedaled twice.
You are about to see passes 10 and 11 on the car.
I'll be back for K9.

I ran BBQ man at 1:15 into this video. The car spun the tires a little at the hit, but then shook them bad right before the traps. You can see the car nose over about 100' before the traps it was shaking so bad.
I was happy though because this was the pass that we figured out why the car kept spinning and shaking the tires.

Makes it a little easier when you are within a tenth of the EZ Street record within 10 passes though.

Yes, very soon. I'm already bored. I thought it would feel a little faster than it does. Turbo swap= 800-1000 more hp.
