That is a really cool video, I especially like the semi 'fisheye lens' effect of it 
and even better is how it catches a very rare glimpse of Farley's entire bracket game (the beast in it's natural habitat so to speak LOL), quite educational actually.

Great video, heard some F this, F that, F Him, FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF. 
I see that I hit the brakes after the stripe too.
Would have been nice to have this camera in Bob T's & Ralph B's car when I raced them. The MOV. against Bob was .004 and Ralph was .008.

Rob had like an .030 light to my dads .050 light. rob dialed 11.38 and dad dialed 11.11. but car would only run a 11.14 all out so it was over before it started. (then next race in the classic muscle category the car ran an 11.08 5 minutes later lol. my car runs what it wants to run. the weather or any other variables that effect racing does not apply

Racing career short lived...but here is my 15 secs (or 12.5) of fame..
Very cool video....from the side I too saw the Farley slide....
I too had the privilege of racing Rob in my 2nd year (2005). He was an icon to me and this was before the Easter Egg. As luck would have it, I think I had an RT of .003 (I know that is a slow red light) and actually beat Rob at the stripe. Walter was all over it 
I think it was my only victory
Enjoy my shining moment of a short lived race career....
