DONE!!...in a street driven one, anyway!

First pass last night, ran 10.97 @ 121.84 with a 1.56 60'

Went to make another run and the starter quit. We rapped on it with a hammer and got it started. It leaned out (12.5-12.8 AFR) down track. I shifted about 1000rpm too soon and it seemed to clean up. Still went 11.07 @ 120 with my best 60' ever...1.52!!

Now I need to replace the starter and do some fuel system diagnostics. All in all, it was a good night!

I will get video posted today or tomorrow.

Right on, man! That's movin'! Definitely want to see that video!

Yes vid please ...... That's so bad ass

Bad-A$$ indeed. So, I guess that makes you the #1 fastest TC owner on NATO, right? Someone needs to update the top 25 2.3 TC's list now.

Send in the timeslip, it will be done. Actually a photo/scan of it will suffice. Just make sure it's easily legible for my old-fart eyes!

Will the photobucket link work? It's the first link in my post.

Thats my job....

Well, I think I need to let my buddy use my video camera instead of his phone. He emailed me the mp4 files but the video is "portrait" instead of "landscape". He didn't have the phone angled that way when he was filming...I have no idea how to fix it.
I uploaded them to photobucket, but when I play them back, the sound "outruns" the video and it seems to buffer too much. Here are the videos:

If anyone thinks they can mess with the video and make it better, I can email the mp4 files. Just let me know.

Ok, I uploaded them to youtube. Plays smoother but still the partial screen view. Better than nothing.

I just keep watching the second one over and over...
"I'll bet this one over the vette..." Love it!

Are your original MP4 files the same as what is shown on Youtube and Photobucket? Or are the sides being cut out when you upload it? If what you see on your computer is different that what we see on Youtube, you can send them to me and I'll fix it. If it is the same, I don't know that there is anything that can be done.
