    Default Won super street at the street car shootout!

    6 rounds of racing and a spot in the winners circle!

    Four eye cars to the front!


    Few pics and a phone video of the finals. We dialed the same (10.10), I went .003 to his .058, hit the brakes and pushed him under 10.08 me...10.03 him.

    There is a "pro" video guy there every month for the SCSO....he said he has all the final rounds. He's still uploading them. Hopefully I can get one soon!

    Here's one from last month, I had my incar camera going. I forgot it this month (of course :-/ )

    You can do it one of two ways, type the video tags manually (do NOT include the spaces after and before the brackets like I have: [ video ]InsertLinkHere[ /video ]

    Or, if you notice in the post editor, you can click the little button that looks like a film strip, it's between the insert picture and quote buttons and a pop-up will appear asking you for the link to the video.

    Also, you can take a look at your first post, like you're going to edit it yourself, then click the button in upper left-hand corner of the editor that looks like A/A kind of and you'll see the code there.

    Beautiful!

    Cutting a .003 light is a great way to make the end play easier, but it's still tough in a close race.

    Well done sir.

    Let's see if this works. Shifter, this is the video link you posted above.



    Oh, that is slick. The "Insert Video" works great!
