Pacific Raceways Test n' Tune Video Runs
 
A couple of my roommates, 13bpower, NoRotor, and our 4th sudo roommate eriksseven I went down to the track and got a few runs in two weeks ago, friday the 23rd.
I wasn't looking like it was going to be really that busy, but little did we know that it was a friggin' Harley Bike weekend http://smiliesftw.com/x/doh.gif

So to make a long story short it was a lot of sitting and waiting for not very many runs. I only got 3 but mainly because I stopped to hook up and film the other guys.

But overall it was a fun night. http://smiliesftw.com/x/chaching.gif

I only rolled for a little bit but I put together a quick little vid so I thought I would share:

For those who are wondering, I did run a vehicle my Coupe:
91' Jetta Coupe vr6
-freshly rebuilt with a 1mm overbore
-lightened flywheel
-Full 2.5" exhuast (cat delete)
I had a good amount of gas and all my crap from work, IE: camera gear, tripod, clothes shoes and what not.
I only took three runs and I improved a tenth of a second every pass I took. I just need to get my 60' times down and take out some un-needed weight. http://smiliesftw.com/x/coolugh.gif
Anyway the slips where something like this:
Run 1:
14.9 @ 93 , chilled on the launch and early shifted just to see what it would do on a lazy run
Run 2:
14.8 @ 96, victory burn out through 1st and taking it to 6.5k
Run 3:
14.7 @ 96, still spinning through most of 1st but a little better run http://smiliesftw.com/x/hsughno.gif
It was a good first outing and Im pleased with fist results
enjoy http://smiliesftw.com/x/hsughhyper2.gif

Wow, hella good video B'... Too bad the footage wasn't very spectacular (although I must say for google video, the shots were amazing).

Street footy > track footy (like skating 'park', lol)...

BTW, for those that think that I 'bested' the LT-1 '7 (because all you saw was the what, 14.3?), it's not true. My best was a 13.6 and his was a 13.5--however my traps were a couple MPH faster IIRC.
