Nice video. I actually watched the whole thing.
Man, that's a lot of rattling in the car. He should get that looked at.

For having the least HP car i felt dicouraged. But it worked to my advantage and I was able to pull staying in high revs through the whole run.

The cars

Fc, Red Rx8, Fd, and evo all had well over 300rwhp
wrx & 350z= 250+rwhp

and than me with a mostly stock motor. So 238hp at the flywheel and rwhp? Thats definitley motivation for me.

So let me get this straight....2 way traffic on a 2 lane road....... bicycles......motorcycles....blind corners. You're lucky you didn't kill someone's little kid. If it were me one one of those motorcycles who's *** you were riding everyone of you would be calling your insurance agents. Bravo guys.
