Some footage of my SCed FC at buttonwillow

Alright, I took the car the Buttonwillow race way this weekend, www.buttonwillowraceway.com/ , and the car ran like a champ. I was able to pass up RX-8's and stock T2's in the straits.

Here are some videos of the car:
*Notes: Video ending with high are High resolution ~20-30mb.. Videos ending with low are low res.. <10mb.

Having some fun with a S4 sport, with full suspention, exhuast, intake and 235's racing rubber. I was still able to catch up to him and make him nervous enough to loose it. I was running shitty 205's street tires in the rear, with 205 aziens in the front.. which really slowed me down.

Same person/car as above.. but I gave him a second chance to out run me, he looses it in the same corner.

The car drove fine for about 7 hours of track time, water temperature didn't exeed 190 degrees, and cool down to 180 after the cool down lap.

The Super Charger did comsume oil though, It drank a bit of oil per 30 minute session.

It drank a total of 3 quarts durring the weekend, which was about 620 miles, 300 miles of which where track miles which were between 6-8k rms.

The super charger held up just fine in these conditions and boost stayed perfect.

The car plenty of power and was predictable as boost was controlled, and not just jumping at you like on a FD or turboII.

Hope you guys enjoy the videos.

The car is for sell, check out :

Looks nice. Have you got any videos with less wind noise and more supercharger noise?
