Very impressive Jeremy. Can't wait to see a run where you use all the gears.

verry nice.
from the vid the launch does not look violent, but i suppose in the car would be different.

Looks fairly violent to me. Videos just don't do launches justice.

[musthavemuzk]

not doubting the violent launch at all. just saying the vid did not show it as it could have been or was....

wonder what it would take to mount a camcorder in a car to really experience it? this way no extra weight besides the few ounces of the camcorder and whatever to mount it to.

I just took my camcorder and duct taped the tripod to the rollbar and it turned out pretty good. I like the wisp of tire smoke coming inside the car in the video. I guess I could've made a grunting sound when I launched.
I think this 60ft was in the 1.30's.

i also do not know if i would have the cool smoke coming in the vents on my car.....
dang it i am just not as cool as you.

u can get camera mounts that would mount to your rear window/body/roof.... with suction cups. they work great. I do not know if IDR would allow on exterior. But they stick good. My friends stayed on at 130mph corners at BIR

the red viper a few years ago had it on his windshield?

Congrats, Jeremy!

I was sitting right there (if you look hard, you can see me in the vid!) It looked like someone rear ended him at launch.

[musthavemuzk]

i know this is not stateside, but it was one that was mentioned on a photo forum i am on.
