While watching the "in car" video, I turned my lights down, turned the volume up, and got really close to the screen, almost like being there, except for no G force!
Cool video and car!

Thanks. I figured folks would get a kick out of that one.

Wow!!! That thing runs good! Reminds me of my old Nova that ran 9.30's about 10 years back.

I gotta ask....was that really 1500 RPM? Sounded more like 3500.

Good job!

hehe... watched some of Rocky III last night.... your car made me think of after round 1 ....Rocky: " That car's strong" hehe

I couldn't foot brake to 3500 if I tried. LOL The X-pipe gives it a higher pitched sound which can be deceiving.

Garret I was getting ready to go to bed but had to check and see how you did today! WOW is all I can say those 60's are killer! Makes me want to rip the ladder bars out of my car and put split leafs in! Showed my wife the in car so sh could ge a feel for what its like too. Got mine out and apart this weekend looking for just a little more for next year. Hope to have some help on chassis set up then too so I can get some 1.3 60's like you! AWSOME!:hurray:

Damn brother, That's better than porn! Lol!! When my car grows up, it wants to be like yours! Bill.

Andy, Drop me an e-mail or PM sometime with all your chassis settings front/rear including shock settings, spring rates, etc. I might be able to assist you.

Thanks....I think! LOL

Yeah, I had never tried doing an in-car before. It was really pretty easy. I just racer taped a tripod to the roll bar. Worked like a charm!

The in car video rocks!!!!

Freakin awesome! That was so cool!

Impressive as always. :thumbsup:

40coupe, what's your name?! Some of us like to speak to a person when we try to give a sincere COMPLIMENT. THANK YOU for that video! Just think how much faster you could go without the weight of that rear-view mirror.:D
I was looking to read about your setup. Did I miss that? (Still breathing hard:yes:)

Very nice,your car leaves nice carrys the weight transfer very good looks like past the 60 ft mark(1.34) :yes: have you thought about wheelie bars???9.66 @ 137 very good MPH, way back when about 1995 we did the same thing in car video but the camera was about 10 times (well 5 times the size anyway)the size of todays cameras vhs my cousin took the video sat next to me on the floor we went down the return road to the end of the track SIR Seattle Int. Raceway and did a couple blast's ,almost got in toruble ,but we played that video for years at family get togethers have fun Happy Motoring

Ooh-ooh, In the brand new Hot Rod (with the 'Top 100 hotrods of all time) is a new video camera. It's in the new gear section. Designed just for these kind of movies. $350 bucks. Mounts anywhere they say.

Love the videos. Reminds me of my father in his tubbed out 69 Z28 in the mid 70's. Wish I had that car now.

Thanks.

Man Coupe, that is awsome!!! :bow:
