In car video of the Cobalt racing!!

Here is a link to my In car video taken last night. Yes, i buckled under the pressure and missed the 2-3 shift! Bad thing was, up to that point it was the best run of the night!! Still went 13.1 though. At the end i was doing 112 when i let off. Nice burn-out also

The Camaro went 11.5! I'm hitting 19psi boost and as for the camera, not sure as total stranger offered his set-up to do this at the track. He really liked the car and turned out to be a nice kid. He said we could get more next friday!

Nice video and burnout. Too bad you missed the shift or it would have been an awesome run.

At least now I know how to properly do a burnout... Thanks for the training video...

Actually, if you look hard, i'm at 3K, then ehrn i leave it jumps to 4K then falls back to #k when it grips and then i floor it. Not enough traction yet to "dump" the clutch. If i could, WOW! Hello low 12.4's!

It takes more than slicks to get 1.4's, it takes big power as well! I did a 1.82 with allot less power but that was a perfect launch. Right now, i think mid 1.7's are possible with the current set-up. That would be enough to get me 12.60, which isn't bad for a few bolt ons and still getting 30+mpg
