Another great video I see

[one wicked element]

It looked like the GTO couldn't launch very well. I know those cars are a bitch to launch, but he needs to work on it some.

I did think it was funny how the EVO didn't show any in-car video when he was losing to the TBSS, only when he was winning.

.... and that was one bad ass TBSS.

[Mellonpopr]

I didn't race the TBSS, that was a WRX...not an EVO.

EVO - silver
WRX - white

[bombebomb]

Yeah that GTO was launching awful. I may be wrong but it looked like it had serious traction issues also.

Very nice runs.

I just absolutely love the camera angles and daytime races so you can feel like you are right there with ya.

One critics note for constructive purposes...
When producing the video, I would have some cool music in the background that fades to low volume so you can still hear the exhausts, but get pumped with the jam also.

I can imagine your video with the theme song from PINKS playing in the background "walk away" by the nadas.

Keep the sweet vids coming man and be safe.

I like the video just the way it was. I usually turn street racing vids off as soon as they start because of some terrible metal or hardcore rap blaring.

Very nice runs.

Correct on the blarring crappy music.
,But a well thought out "background" sound that comes in louder and fades out to hear the vehicles is a good choice.
Its all personal preferrence.

There were times in his video that it was bone quiet and no sound. This could have been filled in with a well thought out racing song of some sort.

Such as this one.... Click here to see Video

I can't understand why the GTO with 80 more to the wheels gets it's ass kicked so bad.

I used to do that but honestly it's a ton of work as it is so fading music in and out can be quite a chore...I guess I've gotten a little lazy heh.

I can't stand videos that turn out to be a music video...you can't hear the engines/tires etc...

EVO = 3250lbs ~ 515awhp + better 60'
GTO = 3500lbs ~ 580rwhp + spinning

hp/weight

[93Phoenix]

Ya but I saw a roll race too.

FWIW my friends n/a H/C GTO trapps 119, I figured a 100 shot would bring that up to 126ish and your EVO does 124?
