Drags are fun but it don't last long enough for me. You want a rush that lasts, try this...
110mph on the straights on 4wheel drum brakes then the hairpins at the end. I ended up doing a lot of praying and bargaining with the devil.

A few more of last friday. I've got to get over my fear of rpm and hit the launch above 2500!

7.50-7.60 @ 95 for most of the runs. If I could launch and shift worth a hoot it would be much better. The car is up to it...the driver is another story.

Sounds like you need a nice automatic.

Here's a few recent vids of my car:

Right before this run I posted a new best of 12.53 and thought the timer was whacked or someone made a mistake so I went again and posted this 12.58.

This run was at an Fbody shootout in in San Antonio Texas
http://pureaswebegin.com/content/joed.avi - 12.68 on this run I believe.

Try it again. It's a little weird - it opens a blank browser but then launches windows media or whatever you have defined to play .avi files. You can also right click and then click on "save target as" and that will download it.
