Default Video of recent meet

As much as I hate to post this, but I gotta take my medicine:

http://www.turbofedmax.com/videos/ATL-DBmeet.wmv

This video was taken by my buddy Jaime (yes, we share the same name) who has a turbo'd 4th gen Maxima 5spd. He used to have a S/C running 10 psi, but converted to a turbo running about 9.5psi.

Yes, he did walk me and Mike in that video. In my defense, we started at 65mph+ so E-shift was useless so I basically was going off a 1 gear downshift which makes the boost take forever to come in. I was also running on 5lbs at that time. Anyway, enough excuses.....he walked me like a dog period. His car is fast.

We'll go at it again one day. This time we'll go off a much slower roll if not even a dead stop and the results should be much different I hope, but we'll see.

Enjoy the video nonetheless.


Right click and save as. This is a 20mb video, so it's not dial-up friendly.

Not really since I got my butt handed to me on a platter.

You have to take your medicine sometimes and regroup.

Thanks for the compliment anyway. My buddy Jaime (the other one) and his brother deserve all the credit. They filmed it. Thanks either way.
