What most of you guys have been waiting for.
The race was between sx7r and lorenmiata00.
Both of them has slipping clutches. sx7r is on NOS and loren's max has the s/c
In the video the headlights you see is of the S/C max.

you have to turn up the brightness in windows media player, then you should be able to see everything. we were dead even until we came up to traffic, i let off and then he let off. that was the only vid i got out of our three runs. by the way, my girlfriend did the filming.

That was the first race we did. Thomas stepped on it first. There was a lot of traffic around us. Thomas was in the right center lane and I was in the left center lane at the start. If you watch carefully, you will notice there is first a car on my left. Immediately after passing it, I had to switch lanes to the left lane. I pulled out about a half car length on that run before I had to hit the Skyline brakes to avoid the up coming traffic. This was actually the worst run for Thomas. He didn't purge before the run and the NOS looked like it came on a little lighter as a result. He pulled a lot stronger on runs 2 and 3.

Wow, nice video guys! Anymore? I agree with what Loren said about sx7r's NOS. It seem like he's faster in his other videos. With his 100shot NOS, I would he can take a S/C Maxima, right?


Mardigrasmax: Matt, too bad I'm not supercharged. If not, we can do a little testing of our own. So, you think you can take either of these guys?

Same thing as with a 125hp shot on a stock block.... A broken motor

We really need to find a way to pull out a few degrees of ignition timing. That would make the above two options real possibilities.
