nlpamg,

Thanks, the doors aren't motorized.

JamE55,

I will try to get more videos, I regret not keeping my camera in the car at all times, I had a nice run with a Mustang earlier this week. Wow the guy was just blown away.

amgme, Dada_FL, SiLvaC32 and nishi,

Thanks.

jenk12m,

Saw your car, it's amazing. Would really like to meet up, Enjoy the car

Sorry for being away from the forum for so long but I was away. Well I'm back and I went to the track, only a 1/8 of a mile track. This was practice, the 1/4 mile will be coming soon. I didn't do too well. I have to try different launches, I will get it soon. I still figured I'd share the videos for fun.

Here they are:
http://videos.streetfire.net/video/1...36C995290A.htm

The video against the Acura... I did beat him but I was sleeping om the launch. I can't floor the thing since it will skid out on me, I first hit the gas half way and then floor it, with ESP off in sport mode. I will need to try manually shifting the car. I will be practicing. It was just too late for me to go again on the track and the line was getting long. I also need drags but it will get much better.

I will try to make to the 1/4 mile track in Bradento tonight, let's see what happens there.
