Smile Video at the tracks - my rx8 vs my friend's rx8

Hey everyone, just a short clip of a run we had this past weds on 6/21/06 at englishtown, NJ

I'm in the black rx8 on the left lane and my friend is on the right with the silver rx8 and our modds we had were bolt ons like exhaust, midpipe, intake. (i have agency pulley) Although on my signature it says i have the flywheel and interceptor x... my flywheel has not been installed yet and my interceptor x hasn't been delivered to me yet... 3 more days until i get it!!!

Anyways, i launched at 8.5... there was wheel spin which caused me to get a 2.364 on my 60ft but once it caught, it shot forward. I had a 2.301 on my 2nd run when i launched at 7k... but i ran a 14.9 with the 7k launch. (feathered the clutch)

On the run you're seeing, i ran a 14.8 and my friend ran a 15.3 with trap speed of 92.43 mph (we both have 6mt)

Both of our reaction time was crap lol. (i kno it doesn't take anything away from the 1/4 mile time). Mine was .4 and my friend was .7

I was really hoping to hit 14.6 but came up short Argh.. i really wanted to hit that time without the interceptor but oh well...

I have the slip in front of me but no digi cam... but i don't think anyone will find my numbers unbelievable but i will post it in a few days

seems like you had a way better launch. Thanks for sharing, you probably get deep into 14's with the interceptor.

Zoom, it's obviously not the interceptor. I cannot believe you didn't catch this. It's that red neon underglow that makes him that fast. Haha, just kidding.

Cool video man, I really did enjoy it. I would never let my friend live down that I destroyed him at the track.
