1st gen at track short video

i put this together with some old video from earlyer this year. it was taken with a diggy cam so the video kinda sucks but oh well.. i just got a new video editer and wanted to try it out

the car ran ok it was only on a 75 shot. the turbo Z ran an 8.30 i had him by 3 cars out the hole(1/8 mile) its a stock 12a with bolt ons and NITROUS

left the line at 4500 and with a messed up carb the 2nds never opend(linkage was bent) and was beatting the Z till i let out....

if i left the line hard 8k and with a good carb i may get a stock 12a into the 7's on a 75shot we will find out when the tracks open again hope you like the video

Awesome song choice, I crank that every time it comes on my XM. Get your carb fixed and a better cam, then post some more videos. Also try having your "camera man" stand a little further down so we can see more of the race.

i got a new mini dvd cam now... that was the reason i got the new video program caz windows movie maker would not work with the dvd format

the carb is fixed i found out what the problem was the next day... the linkage was bent from racing beat it was a bran new carb.. but it was something they would have not noticed as i didint. untell i knew there was a problem. the linkage was bent out 1/16th of a inch and thats all it took to do bad things lol
