It's an old vid but this is one of my alltime favorite SL65 vid's. Maybe it's the music; maybe it's the storyline

This is the Autodrome Saint-Eustache 1/8 mile drag strip in Quebec, Canada. All the drag strip in Quebec I tried always asked me to put up my roof... I'm surprised they don't require it at this drag strip. I'll try this one next year haha

Funny part the aerodynamics w/top down kills Perf, you would've went quicker by 1-2 tenths & same in mph @ the 1/8 in ET/ Trap.. You emasculated the 440 6-pack! No way in hell he expected a loss from you esp w/passenger to boot haha..
