Man, there's more white boys racing rotaries than I thought.

Video is pretty good, but there's alot of sun glare on the windshield so we cannot see you passing the traffic and that's what would really show how the car pulls. Good luck this friday.

sound quality is very low. If you take the waterproof rubber gasket around the case off the sound is much louder, give it a try.

Come on ernie I hope its not cause your scared it will break. The best rotary tuner in the world tuned your car

good luck at the track today. If you dont come home with a 9 sec slip I will have to agree with Ito on you driving like a *****, 9s should be a walk in the park with that tranny.

Yea If there is a way to break something I will find it! Not to worry, already have the GT42R dual ball bearing on its way. Apparently the journal bearing (thats what I had) has a thinner weaker shaft. On my 2nd run it snapped in half. First run I short shifted 2nd gear. Still my first run in a year and still went 10.01 Not too shabby for a white boy.
2nd run was a mid 9 easily. Turbo blew on shift to 4th gear and still went 10.32@109mph with only 3 gears coasting through. I will be ready this weekend. I got this tranny down.
