i just got back from waco for a conference so i'm a little late posting the stuff from friday. anyway, there were alot of cars that showed up: four maximas(paul, yj, his friend's, and mine), a 3000gt vr4, mustang GT, LS1 SS, two LT1 formulas, impreza 2.5rs awd, NA 300Z, an extreme, and some others i don't remember... however, mr. LS1 decided to leave for some reason. here's the link to the directory of pics:
http://www.geocities.com/sx7r/car/0302pics/

ok, now for the videos. NOTE: you have to turn up the brightness and contrast on the MPEG player you are using otherwise all you'll see are headlights/tailights and not the actual cars. FYI, these races happened in chronological order.

the first one is just my gf filming a group of cars driving to the race spot. paul's in front of me, impreza is beside him, and eclispe is beside impreza. next to me is the vr4 and next to that is mustang gt.
http://www.n-bone.com/sx7r/0302/carsdriving.MPG

this next one is me following a race between the vr4, eclipse, and impreza. i'm not on the bottle at this point, just follwing.
http://www.n-bone.com/sx7r/0302/vr4VSgsVSrs25.MPG

the third is a race between the GT, vr4, and me(right lane). my bottle pressure is at 800psi at the time. the GT is so slow it's only in the video for 1 second in the very beginning before i pass him. needless to say the vr4 gets me out of the hole, but i catch up.
http://www.n-bone.com/sx7r/0302/vr4vsSX7R.MPG

this next race is between me and the first LT1 formula(96). alright, now my bottle pressure is even lower, cuz not enough time has elasped for the bottle heater to do any good. so i'm not exactly smoking this guy, just walking away.
http://www.n-bone.com/sx7r/0302/96formulaVSsx7r.MPG

this race is between me, the other LT1 formula, and i think Paul is on the otherside of him. well, by now i'm just BARELY creeping on him before i slow down(see cop in distance), cuz of bottle pressure.
http://www.n-bone.com/sx7r/0302/95formulaVSsx7r2.MPG

ok, now for the last video... after that round of street races we went back to the coffee shop and this indian kid(looks like he just turned 16) in an SI comes up and says he wants to race someone, anyone. we point at the parking lot and said "pick one." well, it turns out that the impreza is selected to race him. i hop in the car with him to film and you can see the results for yourself. pay attention to what i say near the end of the video and you'll see why that was the last race of the night. i'm just going to leave it at that. =Þ

enjoy.. more next time.

I tried looking at the vids and the site won't let me view them.

Maybe your host shut it down due to high bandwidth.

mardigrasmax: i haven't put in the .047 jet in yet because i lost my .042 jet that i was going to use in the tee. the closest place that sells jets is out of that particular jet - lucky me. my fuel pressure is steady at 90psi. injectors are still fine - hope it stays that way.

zumble: yeah, the cop stopped us and did his job. good thing i wasn't driving.

the rewire i did was different

Curious.. So what did he do to the driver of the Scooby? Yea, good thing you weren't driving. Also, what did the Impreza have? I saw the pics and he had intake. Thats all I could see.. how did he manage to pull that hard from the Si? Did the SI driver suck that much??

i'm the one with the rewired lights. i put a dual wattage bulb and socket in each turn signal. so they are constant on and they also double as turn signals - bumper light alternates with the one beside it.

both drivers got tickets.

I also have dual wattage bulbs in the blinkers and they alteranate too with the bumper light, but do you ever have problems signaling when your park lights on? For some reason, at times my blinker stays lit, and won't blink for a few seconds, then it goes away, but they do blink when I turn the park lights off, but they seem to be dimmer. One time my park lights went out, I realized it was a blown fuse, but now that you have dual wattage bulbs do you need to upgrade the fuses for the turn and tail (park light) fuses? How do I get rid of the blinker/park light problem? Help me please...
