Ran at track

Well I just got back from Houston Raceway Park..My best time to date was an 11.64@119.92 60ft of 1.82..I put on some BFG Drag Radials and was able to get an 11.44@119.53 with a best 60 ft of 1.62..That is one hell of a 60 ft time in a 4700lb car..My last pass I heated the tires a little more than I was previously and got my best time so I think I could get in the 11.3s..This car hauls *** and is a blast to drive..

Yes, someone on the passenger could shoot it. In this forum there are a lot of videos of cars runing. In the CL forum are a video of a cluster of a car from 0 to 175.

Chas I am sorry but that video is weak... carlos is right... Its cool if you want to see the vette.. but not the CL.... we hardly see your car and don't even see the time at the end. Next time have someone take more of your car... we are all drooling here waiting to see this beast run. Don't deny us like this...
