You guys had some wild launches, some fantastic, some down right ugly. gotta love a 4k lbs 4 door running 12.5 in the 1/4. I also shot some good video of every car except the porsche. Did not stay to see him run.

Did the M5 blow a clutch? It smelled cooked.

Did the vett break something? Did not sound that healthy after the last pass I seen when he went to the pit and lifted the hood.

What size would you like?

I can set it for any size you like. Just trying to conserve bandwith.

If any body that was running that would like a larger video or a DVD please let me know what format you would prefer.

Hey Bill: Nice runs. Thanks for the vid.

Is that your C55 running mid twelves? If so, what have you done to it to get those very nice times/speeds?
