People should definately know who Ari is. He was drag racing his 3rd gen back while I was still racing and he's been continuing to improve on it ever since. He's put together quite the car and I'm guessing his driving has a little bit to do with it as well.

If he was puting that much power down he would probably be deep in the eights or sevens.

Does the camaro fault start? It looks like it leaves a good .5 second before the rx7 leaves? Either way, a damn impressive run.

It's called bracket racing..... you guys haven't a clue about drag racing, huh?

Anyone know what transmission he's running. It's not stock.
