Awesome video WAN, I have a Kodak Play Sport, it shoots in HD also. Your driving skills are alot higher than mine though..lol. I still have alot to learn about my FD before I can push it as much as you and Alex did.

Here is one of my videos.

I was expecting such a response when I asked. I'd have been disappointed if it was anyone else who took the bait.

Divin,

If Brismo won this years Best Classic Mazda, I'll eat my 7NotStock hat. But that 's a shallow promise as that would require Brismo to give it back.

Anyone have an ECU to loan Robert for 7Stock?

Heh, I always give people the benefit of the doubt, when asking about things I didn't see.

nice video WAN man I looked in my rear view and saw you there so I gunned it a bit to much coming in to that turn. Nitto NT05 held up pretty good but you are not the only one who spun. LOL i didnt tell anyone because I would get laughed at!

I gotta get that vid from you

Hey Brett, my camera did not record that session! I'm pretty upset about that! But at least I'm in your video. You catch up to me and pass me like I am parked on the main straight. haha

Also your video is shaky and the quality is low, how was your gopro mounted? and what settings do you have it on?

i almost had to change my shorts! it was scary. i have no swaybars on my car at all, i need to have a custom made nascar swaybar for the front. and with the power steering coming off and on, it was a handful on the turns.

Ok, I found the problem. I installed my pfc into a vert im working on. The pfc works. I than pulled my emission harness out of th race car to inspect it closely. Found the mass airflow meter wiring melted. I cut the melted harness out and the car runs. The funny thing is that it tested well in the car. Im glad the ecu is not hurt.
Thanks Robert

Here's the only picture I took at Mazfest. My cousin, my wife, Law and I stayed kinda late chatting/shooting the **** while eating the leftover snacks we had in our ice chest. The whole event was fun and I'm glad that none of us got hurt in any of the incidents that occurred during the day. Our cars can be fixed or replaced but it's always good to be able to go home to our loved ones in one piece.

I'm still editing some of my video and will post up clips as soon as I can. It's taking me longer because I have to use my work computer to edit the clips since it can handle HD video.

I'll see you guys again at Sevenstock for a full day of hard parking!
