Default z06 vid (drag/autocross)

http://videos.streetfire.net/video/1...d401102525.htm

These are vids with Cameo driving.

She got her first 10sec pass on street tires

And won first place in the autocross event.

- Anyway the reliability of this car with this setup has been outstanding.

Thanks to Dan for editing this awesome video!

she was shifting slow because I told her too.

The clutch only had 150 miles on it.

Thanks guys.

I need to put on the dragpack now that the clutch is broken in.

With that kind of wheel hop your lucky the rearend didn't shatter!!! I watched Matt have wheel hop once and it literly split the rearend/transmission into 2 different pieces.

Video looks good other than that.

The burn out was G driving, and the in car video was G driving. There is no traction in that car, 2nd to third is horrible! That car does not shift as easy as mine. Not sure that it will either.

Nice vid Garett! What did the car do in the 1/8th mile? (Interesting to see how fast it ran on the big end of the track.) Put up that slip so I can change that User Title to the 10 Second club!
