You had the only cool vid. You could hear the nice sounding exhaust and actually had a good song sampled in unobtrusively.

I had to go the last vid at VIR because it was a well driven race on my home track and I know some of the drivers

No doubt the 7 video was also entertaining but didn't give me the race battle vibe.

Also that vid of the dude who went off in the 1st lap of the enduro race was pretty funny, good stuff

UPDATE MAY 27

NEED YOUR HELP AGAIN!

Thank you for your vote last time, but I need it one more time PLEASE! The last contest was cancelled due to voter fraud. A new more secure system is now in place and the contest has started over.

Please help the #76 Southwest Funding Mazda RX-7 race car win the first ever OG Racing video contest. We have made the top 5 finalist.

It's very simple.

1. Just click on this link: http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/ograci...-video-contest

2. Click on "mbuskuhl"

3. Click "Next". Click "Done."

No logins, no registration, no typing, no email address given. Just click, click, click, click.

Forward this to everyone you. Each ISP can only vote once (Do not try and clear cache/cookies as you will be identified as trying to cast duplicate votes!)


Thanks for your vote!

2150 lbs.? Thats the lowest I've ever seen an FC. I can't believe you're keeping up with Ferraris, Porsches, s2k's, etc. with only a streetport. Excuse my ignorance, but what is a Jerico?

Dog box. Clutchless upshifting. Over 200 gear ratios to pick from. Used extensively in NASCAR.

Got it, I knew it sounded familiar. You're running a 5.12 rear end? Thats insane. I would love to have that on a weekend street car.
