Video of other runs where I spun horribly in the 1-2 shift after leaving off idle:

I got 7 passes in at Island consistently running 13.0-.5 @ 110-113mph. The MPH was considerably lower then when I ran at Atco a few months ago. My best MPH to date is 118. I got the launches down pretty good considering I'm running on a wide & thin street tire. I'm fairly happy with the times and I'm thinking of making one more pass at Atco with some tires.

Turns out he had 315s, not DR's...but yeah it's pretty sad. And about his burnout, he said he couldn't, the clutch wouldn't work.

And he's a member here but hasn't posted. He lives in Morristown.

I like the videos and the car sounds great. I think you could get away with a semi-sticky DR and get some low 12's out of it. Somehow my rear held decently enough my last time out on my MT DR's but it didn't dead hook to hard thankfully.
