Default Vid of the PT
thought you guys might like this
http://web.syr.edu/~crobbins/dsr_macDs.mov

sadly, i lost... the first was a 5.0 mustang with a CAI and an exhaust. ( only lost by about a car length). the next was a stock GTI. i lost to him too, by 3/4 of a car length. i have raced 1.8t's before and it has come down to who gets the jump, and in the vid, he did. At the track, i beat the same 1.8t though, its just on the street my car doesnt do its best. all i have is the CAI and mopar exhaust. i think with stage 1, i will hand it to the mustang. all in all, it was a great night.

Nice vid man. I would definately install stage one, roll up there again, and try and take on the same guys. What distance are ya'll racing? You have the sickest looking ride out there.

Looking at the video, it appears that your reaction time is what is costing you the races. In both races, the other car got the hole shot and you stayed with them the rest of the way. Just an FYI. Nice video, though.

ya, i am not used to flaggers. i mostly do stop light races, or the tree.. i WILL be ready next time though. and the PT is going to embarass some people. I did hear one guy say " i have NEVER seen a PT do a burnout like that before" i was trying to get a vid of it though. he said he taped it...

If those guys are your friends, all the more reason to get the S1 and be a sleeper for a while, and then run one of them. They won't know what hit them. I would see if the camera man would do a little special on your PT. Tape your runs, and maybe have an "inside the cockpit" portion.
