    My first Drag racing event!

    Well....I will post my 2 vids, and maybe some more..The SECOND VID IS IN POST #10...but i picked up my RT rims from RobAGD and they look awsome. I ran quite a few more runs then i expected as i finished in the top 8 of the LX group...and i raced Aikidoka who in test and tune, ran a hot motor and beat me off the line, but i had the better time, it was an awsome race...it will be uploaded later. I have my slips...but they are impossible to scan...the print is too light...but they messed our times up and i have a slip that said my car ran a 12.5 quarter mile. I didnt change anything around in the car...just ran it like it is...My best time was a 16.05....here is the video......photobucket is gay and it screwed up...here is proof that v6's can burnout and run near 15's stock.

    You capped the vid toofast or something.

    Try encoding it again, but dont try to do it fast or anything.

    Great day for you ma, I hope you enjoy the wheels.

    You did great and it was a blast running with you. I was shocked when I saw a 12.5 on a V6 against me!

    Awesome video! Great to meet you and your dad. My son went and bought the same sticker for under the hood by the way. Thought of you and your dad when we put it on yesterday morning.

    Fun day...the vid shows you having a BETTER breakout. Outstanding....and you thought the 16.10 dial was safe. Nice job! Now...why didn't we get to hear that custom made box and upgraded sound system with our 23 hours of staging line time?

    You're hooked btw...find yourself looking on line for open test and tunes...betting your dad closer dial times for new cams, etc..... It's a sickness...need a tissue?

    Really looking forward to seeing our run video. It was great meeting you and you did a great job that day. Keep in mind he posted these times WITHOUT pulling his spare and jack and some other weight from the rear of the car. If you do that next time you'll stay in the 15's

    Thanks Guys! I really did have fun, and i didnt think a 120 lb speaker box would give me a faster time and allow me to get my rims from Rob....next time maybe. Bill I'll have our run up this afternoon.

    I was shocked when you flew past me right at the line and i finished a whole 4 sec. behind you and i get a slip saying you pulled a 13 and i pulled a 12.5...I laughed when i got to the pits and showed it to a few guys and they all were like...what do you have done to the car...i was like its stock and they were like....what size motor and i was like V6...and they all just stood there and looked dumbfounded.

    OK great vid but I have a question. We didnt have a dial-in yet and not to be picky but the track showed me winning but the time slip said I lost. Did you have a dial in there????

    Aikidoka...no it wasnt dial in....you won because you got me by a holeshot...your reaction time was what got you the win...but since it was test and tune....I had better time then you did...so i got the win on the slip. But I was wondering the same thing about my loss to LouZ....he was faster than his dial in by .007...and i was slower by .1xx...did he win because he passed me and and got me in lengths?
