Nice runs and congratulations on a very well setup car. Looks like a pretty even race. I would like to see what the cars would do from a dead stop.

Thanks. Yeah, it was a very close match up. We both agreed my car had the slight edge both in traction down low in 1st gear, and in power, but he really isn't far behind.

We both had tubular suspension and drag radials that were already warm. I'm sure with that setup from a dead stop we would be spinning all over the place worse than the first race we did from a roll. Perhaps if we both had our slicks on that would make a difference.

Last year when my Nitto DR's were new, they used to hook up great, now the spin in 1st gear pretty good .

Nice win.
The brother of my buddy has basically the same car but runs 22#. I'll probably meet up with him this summer at the track. At least I know what to expect.

Thanks buddy, that means a lot to me.

I enjoy making vids, and have plenty more ideas for future ones. As we speak, the 98 Formula in my sig is about to be modded for starters.

LT
Not bad for a motor that was designed in 1990 and 91. Well considering that ford came up with their motor 10 yrs later. And he had 4 more pounds.
Nice.

Nice job! Great video work and editing too. Cars seemed to be closely matched with the edge going to the Camaro. Hard to call any street racing responsible but not crazy speeds and nobody flying by at the end.

Sweet looking and well set up Z!

The song was "Trapped" by Soulidium.

Thanks for the compliments.

So when is the re-match ? I will bet he is trying to figure out how much additional boost he can throw at the motor, I'm betting he will ask you for another race soon with 23 to 25psi of boost. Do you have any extra power you can squeeze out of your set-up ?
