Nice video, but who won? What did he run in the quarter? The number of these awesome videos keep growing. I love the new digital technology.

Just think how much better your time would have been if you'd been able to hook up. I heard rubber the entire length of the run. The other guy must have been going ape at the awesome power emanating from under that C3 hood!

Looks like the C3 won. Sounded like it was spinning all the way down the 1/4, and got a fourth gear crossing the line. I can only dream...... :cheers:

WOOHOOO!!! Thanks for posting it Mike!!
I'm not sure if I won or not. I was trying to see which light came on at the end, but it's too fuzzy. If I didn't take him I was REAL close. And I'm not sure which pass it was since I made a total of 11 runs.
Mike: Is there a time stamp on that file? Do you know when it was recorded? I can check my slips.
I was definitely getting some wheelspin at the start. You can see that he had a better reaction time than I did. I just wasn't hooking up with the 225's on the car. Once I got some grip I really started pulling. We were door to door the whole time. If I could have done a better job off the line and not spun so much, I would have done much better. Still, not bad for my first trip to a strip :)
