Very nice! Even if my car could do it, there's no way I'd have the guts to go that fast. I was originally thinking that it would be cool to have an outside camera shot from the front -- but then I realized why you probably don't.

LOL, notice my radio? It's still waiting for me to plug in the radio code to even activate it. I haven't listened to the radio in 4 months.

Thanks man, I think this launch was at 5k. I tried to shift at or just above 7500 but it revs so quick that I was just trying to time it right.

Looks like Mike and I had the fastest Porsches at the Texas Mile. Only because Evoms was having some troubles with the Red Beast.

Congrats on the run and you've got a very fast car. What kind of suspension set-up do you have? I thought it was pretty smooth considering how fast you were going.

Mate I think your exhaust is leaking!

Awesome racing sound. The Real McCoy.

That's a pretty wicked exhaust note!
I have a Fabspeed exhaust on my aircooled Turbo, with high flow cats... I think yours is the first watercooled Turbo I've heard that sounds meaner than mine!
