videos from Atco 6/12/09

[Slow Z]

Some videos from last night. It was retardedly humid out so everyone was running pretty slow. I was trying to keep the car slower than 11.49 but first pass it went 11.44. This is my second run... The starter opened up my door and yelled at me for not having a fire jacket. He however said nothing about not having a roll bar... weird. "I saw what you went on that last run. you get a pass tonight but dont come back here without a jacket!"

Dude, while I am impressed that your car runs strong and consistent I think you should cut them a break by posting a vid of them testing the car for the first time while trying to work the bugs out. I might not agree with some of their ball busting either but you've got some stones I must admit. I don't think you jumped into your car the first time and put down an impressive number. I do hope you guys really are doing this all in fun.

i agree but i think that everyone has their own agenda and let them sort it out but hey what do i know i only run 13's hahaha no but i like that camera a lot i got a little jvc evrio which isnt too bad as long as you're steady

Here's a video of the first time I ever made a pass at the track with my car:

the humidity doesnt affect DA as much as low barometric pressure. (everybody blames the humidity), but when the baro is only reading 29.70 youre not going to run as good compared to 30.70

that red t/a came out of the hole pretty hard. once he gets a feel for the car, itll be much faster than low 13s @ 95mph. Driving a 6spd requires a bit more skill than driving an auto.

No one ever said that car would run 9's. And for anyone that cant tell from the video that was a test and tune 1/8th mile pass.

1/8th mile? That car didn't even make it 60ft... The owner of that car did in fact say it should run "low 11's high 10's on motor and low 10's high 9's on spray." ...for your wallets sake it better

[Sweet99Z]

my wallet should be just fine.

looked like he cut a bogging 1.60 60' thats not too bad. between the 1-2 shift and the end, it sounded like he let out for a total of 5 seconds lol.
