honestly, i think choko’s car is a touch faster, but we really didn’t get a clean run. And on the best run i had, my camera didn’t capture anything but audio, really.

We need a rematch. Tried doing a 20 roll, but i was having some major issues. So we finally got a 40 roll setup.

Attempt 1.  
We’re pretty even in my 3rd gear, but i missed the shift to 4th (god, probably the easiest shift ever)

Attempt 2: I think i had a touch of a jump, could have shifted better, probably… From watching Josh’s video i think he might have had a fender on me.

I think i’ll have to give it to choko, but i want a rematch to be sure:

yeah. i could easily do a 30 roll, if you wanted…

a 20 roll puts me at about 5000rpm in 1st and 3000 in second… 1st gear is over as soon as i get into it…

i promise more fireballs.

From a roll the auto guys aren’t at their usual advantage like at the track but I’m guessing the spray makes up for a lot of it. On a clean run I predict Choko pulls a car or so, but at the track destroys it.

It’s probably mid to high 11’s just because the gearing sucks for drag racing. You will be way into 5th. It’s tough to get a low et with that many shifts.
