Default 1/4 (video) thread

It's January and cold I thought I'd try to break some of the winter time blues and try something a little different and start a video thread

This is after a day @ the Corvette Challenge, Raceway Park ... one of my favorites! Sorry about the poor quality ... (I miss Marshall )



Do you have a favorite short vid?

Even if the mods would let you, I don't think any of us want to see your gay **** collection.

Long time buddy... Hope all is well.

Here are some of my 1/4 mile clips from last fall. See this post for more details on the mods. My YouTube account also has several other 1/4 mile videos from before the cam install as well as some cruising clips.

Here is a vid of my first and only time to the track. It was stinking hot out that day. I hope to have my car soon and make it to the track again. I now have some nitrous to make it move a little quicker.

I'm sure things are beginning to thaw out in some areas, but here's my first 9 second pass with a 6 speed. Don't worry about the video title. This isn't a world record pass for a stock bottom end C5, but it was a decent pass for stock longblock and 6 speed trans. I'm looking forward to going racing again along with everyone else.
