    Yeah, I can't see the turn signal for the tach, keeps the other lane guessing.........

    That launch is with no transbrake, just 5.14 gears. And holding the nitrous button down as soon as the light turns green!!

    I am shifting at 7200 - 7400, depending on how lucky I feel. I go through the end at 7400.

    sorry steve, everytime i clicked on the start the screen went black. i'll try it again later. that track at vegas sure is nice isn't it? that's where the div.7 et finals are to be held this year. maybe if i want to see it run i'll have to come up to speedworld. :)

    Hi Don, you shouldn't have to click on start, it should just start automatically if you click on the link.

    Steve, it's good to see my old car running still!!! :D I've been meaning to give you a call to catch up on what mods you have done. Have you been out to SpeedWorld lately? I have been going out there about once a month or so but haven't seen you. Great video. :wow: :wow:

    Great video! What are you running for rear suspension? We all need to get a Maverick day together out at Speedworld.
