Nice. You got your money's worth of fun out of the Camaro already it seems. I tell Dave you said hello.
Was that a Chevette and what was under the hood? |

I'm having fun with it, felt a little bad about bringing it to a Pontiac show but there were almost as many Mustangs and other muscle cars there as there were Pontiac's this year. There was some talk of putting down water for me to be able to accomplish a burnout earlier in the weekend/day - I wanted to put that talk to rest. The tip I'll share for your videos with the stick car, once you dump the clutch, quickly move your foot to the brake and adjust as necessary. It's a delicate balance between the gas & brake to powerbrake a stick car but I'm sure with practice you can master it.
Thanks, enjoyed his hello over the weekend. It's Paul Spotts lesson in excess T1000 body that hangs onto his motor - pretty impressive/quick car. Most of the back lot lines should be washed away in the next few weeks, Paul's will still be there when we get back next year. There should have been more segments of Mitch's fantastic Bonneville on there too but there were image problems with the segments I was cutting & Movie Maker kept dropping them. There was another car that was back there for the video shoot and cuttings from other segments that really didn't play into the theme of this video. When I have the time this week I'll dice up another one for a laugh or two.

I think I was the only one mature enough not to do a burnout....
Maybe the RV next year!

Thanks for sharing Chris.
I'm sure Nixon is enjoying that, you even mixed in a little Crue which I'm sure caught his attention. ...and aside from the mystery driver in the T1000...guessing I need to put this on my calendar next year so I can show all you amateurs how to stripe a parking! haha
