Waaaaay too much wheel spin as bse50 said. (shutters) Next time stabilize your RPM's and then launch.

This video should have been done at a drag strip.

This video was made for entertainment purposes, which is the whole point of the wheelspin... I was surprised that the car could ride it out through 2nd gear.

Plan on hitting the quarter mile soon, ill post it up when I do !

...I think maybe they may be implying that they want to see some time slips ? Or not

No. What I am saying is that anything of this nature should be done in a controlled environment with proper safety precautions being taken. Technically that video could be classified as 'street racing' or 'speed demonstration'. Just trying to keep you out of trouble is all.

I really think that anyone that fits a turbo to his 8 is actually more likely to be looking for trouble

Not impressed. I can do that with my old pickup truck. Lots of gas and dump the clutch. Get a time slip if you want to brag.

That is exactly my thinking for posting it here! You can search youtube and find the same handful videos of turbo 8's videos... I just wanted to post some new material for people to ENJOY!

And now they want quarter mile vids.... when the usual responses on this board are "the RX8 is not made for the drag strip, get a mustang for that."

This forum...... smh. love/hate you guys
