On Board Video from Etown

I finally pulled the camera out of the car and uploaded the video.. I guess it's confirmed my tranny adjustment for 2nd gear was off as you can see i shifted it but got kicked out. I was also having trouble getting the shift light to work but suddenly it starting working. Although i believe the last setting i left on it was to activate with 100% throttle since i was testing it with the car turned off.. I was shifting it by feel...

Anyhow enjoy...

Looks nice! Honestly, i never remember my shift light coming on. Everyone says it lights up but i just don't remember seeing it.


Holy ****, just watched again and noticed how much the front is lifting going trough the lights!!!

Yeah, you really get a good sense of how bad it fell out of boost in the 1-2 shift from the in-car camera. I know you know this already but that thing has some serious top end. . . . Well, actually any end . A few more runs to get it sorted out and you'll be laying down some 8.xx

Keep up the good work enzo!

enzo I could hear detonation at the top pull of third gear and beggining of 4th gear. sounds like your ignition timing is way off.. hope this helps a little.. plus what gear did you do your burnout in? and stop being a sensitive bitch cause I called you a rookie!!! rookie!!!

I think your hearing the bad audio from the camera.. Inside the car it sounds perfect.
