Well, went to Grand Bend, Ontario yesterday for worlds fastest street car. Yesterday was qualifying. Here's my brothers time slip from his first pass. We ran some diagnostics and it's detonating, so it's not running as fast as it should be. But still a respectable time for a 3000 lbs back half 69 nova with no blower or turbo.
Here is a burnout
some cars waiting to run
A friend of ours, Clutch. Don't ya love his mullet? damn canadians love them mullets. He's all business up front, party in the back.
My bro in his car
bros car
the novas motor
rear pic, notice th chute
newer TA doing a burnout.
I have tons of movie clips i took yesterday too. But no where to host em. so if someone has some space, let me know. I'm leaching Rootus' space for these pics (thanks <3!).
My brother ran fastest in his class yesterday. Today is the finals. I couldnt be there. I'm going to the Eminem concert tonight.

Again.
Quarter Mile racing is the absolute bumfuck of motorsport, the lowest grade of competition where it is dumbed down to just starting and going straight for a tiny distance. Limited action for the limited American intelligence.

Don't be too harsh on Eduin. Fans of F1 and the like can't begin to comprehend the meaning of 'competition.'

I hear this arguement all the time. The only thing I can say is lets see you do it. It takes alot more skill than you think to drag race other than just pushing down the pedal and going fast in a straight line. Otherwise everyone would have sponsors and be professionals and people wouldn't be making the big bucks racing in the "absolute bumfuck of motorsports".
I can't count how many times I see someone go to the track in their new car talking mad smack about how fast they are going to run (Ie 13's, 12's) and then can't understand why they can't even break into the 14's because they lack the skills to do so.

well see since you've never been able to fit in a car, you wouldn't know how fun quarter miles are fun to ride .
When I still had my 89 Supra I got up to 12 and even 11.8 at once..

Damn 1.13 short time! thats insane!
That car is no joke, But a street car its not 
I know, I know, its got plates and registration and blah blah blah, but lets be honest, thats a Drag car.
time slips also say Its a NOS hog
lol 3.17 to the 330 and 4.88 to the eighth @143mph!! OMG!
attention all passengers,Pucker you ass cheeks tight cause you may lose control of all bodly functions.
And now for Eduin, why you got to start shit on a thread not intended for you?
I told him I was interested in seeing the pictures of the results so he posted them not for your entertainment but for the people who acually understand what it takes to do that.
What happened in your life that made you so angry with us americans?
Did some american boy force you to play the thimble in monoply while growing up?
and truthfully You shouldnt be angry at us americans.
after all its the Flys that got coated in your dads sperm after he jerked off in that high heal shoe he stole, that impregnated your mom with you, so either deal with it
or spend your life swatting the bastards with a .49 cent fly-swatter and leave us out of it.
Man, Now I understand why everyone hates you.

You morons are still arguiing over 2 Different types of cars and racing? f*****g just grow up and move on. None is better than the other and it's just a matter of personal preference. Both takes skill but more importantly, it takes the right tool. Wtf are you making comparisons of a car designed for a drag strip with one that is designed for off road rallys is beyond me. lol

your radeon an "all in wonder"? if so, you can use some capture software(bundled with card or use like ummm adobe premiere), then just plug the VCR in and record away.
