Well I am going to post a link to my in car video. The video mount was rigged in about 10 minutes so after my burnout the tires stick and the camera goes sideways but you can still see everything.

Sorry for the angled video shot but you can still see me shifting sloooooow. I have got to work on that.

Let me know if it works

For the Mac guys, download MPlayer. It will play just about anything, but is a little buggy.

Edit: When I first tried the DivX plugin for Quicktime it didn't work, but the newer version (5.0.7) works great. Download that instead of MPlayer.

Re: New Link

Cool! Gonna hafta change your sig now! Thats a good thing.

Nice run! What happens if you don't lift throttle from 1 to 2? I imagine with that much power, it would just spin, or break something?

Re: New Link

To download Divx you have to sign up for gator ads also ????

Re: New Link

I didn't have to sign up for anything. I just clicked download and it downloaded the installer.

Edit: I looked at it and I guess you're using Windows. In that case, yeah, I don't think you can get it for free without the ads.

Re: New Link

Gator and popup ads. Horrible. Guys, about 9 out of 10 people online are infected with one more applications that invokes popups on your PC, like Gator does. Download and scan your pc with SWN from here http://www.spywarenuker.com . If you're not infected with something, beers are on me (in San Diego.)

In any event, you can download that DIVX file and then run SpywareNuker to remove gator and other components.

Todd is running @ 4,500 ft. of elevation and at that altitude he's done very well with the car, especially on drag radials.

Re: New Link

Additionally I believe he stated the air density that evening was roughly 7,500 to 9,000 ft. Not to mention all this was achieved against a 20 knot headwind, wearing flip flops and with chicken grease on his fingers from KFC. I believe the carbon/kevlar snowmobile helmet and it's aerodynamic effect contributed to at least .1 to .2
