Yellow RX8 @ NOPI Texas Motor Speedway 3-10-07

Out of all the cars and dragsters that Saturday night, the only other car to get a faster time than the 8 was a suped up Camero. The 8 posted times of 7.6 & 7.2 that day. The Camero hit a 6.8. Here are the small videos of the 8. Keep in mind that they were taken with my cell phone. So the quality is a bit blurry.

The Burnout!
Its just a taste of things to come!

The Race!
Here the yellow eight is on the far lane. Going up against a red mustang. The Stang was running a turbo and noz. As was the 8. People in the stands werent expecting much from the eight. But I was!
