For all of you new guys that want to go fast Part II *RARE VIDEO*

Ok here is a video from 6 or 7 years ago of race between myself vs Alan (Bassn07) I had been running 11.8's all day (stock on drag radials) but a bad launch resulted in the run you are about to see. Alan's setup was OE Tuning, ASP 180mm, SLR injectors, Renntech Carbonfiber Intake and Floorfabbed Longtube Headers, Evosport lightweight rotors, CCW Wheels, split cooling with rear tank Braille Battery & colder plugs.

This video will show you the difference in just a 1/4 race between stock power vs modified power (basically mods similar to what posted in part I) the et's are shown and the traps are off by 2mph but try not to focus on the times but focus on the lengths. Race starts at :45 seconds

Enjoy!

That black car will be at Sacramento raceway this Saturday. It's owned by my brother now, we will probably be a group of 4 e55s going. If anyone wants to come out and race.

Was that back when the potato camera's were all in use? The pole in the way of the trap speed was frustrating, but a quick pause and logic brought it to 123mph.
