Default [VIDEO] 11 second run

I made it out to the last test-and-tune this season to try the DragVette kit out (see post in Tech section) and tried to practice on the tree and see how consistent the car can be.

Here's a video of my first run of the day, Density Altitude was 5300' so the air was a little thin.

I uploaded it to http://www.putfile.com so it should work now.

danoback Thanks, the Camaro ran a 10.42 @ 104... It is a fast car, but it is also built for it, parachute, wheelie bars, tubbed, ect...

Huh, the link shouldn't be dead, that server has 200GB of transfer...

Daaaang! I hope to be there some day (11's). Kudos to the camera person too. A lot of people can't seem to make any decent videos of there runs, but that one was great.
