You rats!! That was my first run and yes, I was a fool with the timing until later on. We raced again and it was much closer, since I had a better launch but he spanked me all three times. Heat soak (hot lapping) is the only chance my e55 has against gE63's.

That video sucks. Obviously the driver of the E55 missed the timing by a LOT.
If you see the green then you're too late to the jump. You gotta punch it when the 2nd light goes off.
Ask the guy with a 0.002 R/T. ME!!! lol.

Sad Jangy really started getting the start down GREAT at the end. He was better than all of us by the end of the day

Agreed. Mr. Jangy was on his first drag racing run ever in that video. By the end of the day his reaction time was better than most, if not all of us. We had 4 runs of which the 63 won all four. It should be noted that I made sure the 63 was not over heated in all of our runs.
Dude, your 63 was pulling like a stead!! I really want to get one out on an open course and see how they hold up. A bigger oil reservoir, cooler, and a few ducts and that thing would be SMOKING!!
I had no clue how much power difference it is between being cold and at normal operating temps. The E55s just shut down. We don't really fade like that.

LOL!! I was having a blast. The other was strangers and I was in my realm. Here, I felt like a football player at a ballet. Plus, I had a helmet with cool pumping air in it, so much of what I was saying was to Jangy!!

That video came out pretty good....... 
Jangy, your car stood the test of time. You probably ran a 100 times back to back in just half a day..........
