Default My first attempt at making a racing movie!

I am very board in Iraq and found out I had Windows Movie Maker so I decided to try and see how it worked. So be easy on me but comments are welcome. I dont have hardly any music on my laptop and WMM would not import any music any way I could not figure it out. So it has no music sorry.Any advice on importing music would be nice. It said I do not have the right codacs installed. All runs were in my 03 Mach 1.

@ car seat! Nice races though... Wish you and the vette would have done a dig race. Other than that not bad for a 1st time vid.

Yeah he did not want to run me from a dig. He knows my car is best from a dig plus he had bald tires. I think from a dig he still would of walked me good. His **** is FAST for the mods he has.

I started reeling him at the top of third and when I shifter to 4th it is when I started walking away. Yeah they die off on the top pretty quick. BUT STILL A BAD *** BRICK!!!

that seals it i am definitely getting a fvckin vette. i have been arguing with myself about it not having a back seat which means i can only drive it by myself or when the kids are at their grandparents or babysitter, but damn they are so fvckin fast. and prices are so low right now. oh and after seeing that i had a twinge of regret about choosing the TBSS over the JGC SRT8. theres no way my brick would have run that good.

mustang is clearly faster than the first 2 cars, but he also honked like an a-hole (1.....2.3GO)

i destroyed a 427 a couple of yrs back, but this one seems like its pretty fast, maybe my guy didnt know how to shift?

decent video though, keep em coming!

No vids of it. I just bought it. I am in iraq and have not even drove it. It has a TRAK cam, Patriot Gold dual valve springs, titanium retainers, comp push rods, P/P LS6 TB, TB Bypass, SLP CAI, K&N Filter, MTI clear lid, SLP pully, MSD plug wires, Pacesetter LT's, TSP true duals, Z06 clutch, Hurst shift, umi short stick, UMI subframes, Hotchkins springs, HP tune. That is it so far. I cant wait to drive it. The modding begins when I get home!!

We keep the poeple at the end to tell us when cars are coming. But we are so far out their in the middle of no where their is not to much traffic. The first year in alaska before the cars found the spot we used to race bikes out their and a few state cops used to come and watch and even race sometimes!! But they stoped when people started wrecking bad!! Then the cars found out!

A f body is as fast as a C5, except for the Z06 my friend. I agree they look badass though, but not as much as my SS
