I was out at Milan Dragway last week and one of the guys there had a camera mounted to the top of his car pointed at the other lane. It's a pretty cool perspective on what a 1/4 mile looks like from the roof of a car! And yes I beat him. He had an all wheel drive Eagle Talon that just got the hell out of town. I was only using my street tires at the time and not my drag radials. Kinda cool, wish there were more shots like this.

You need AWD for that grease pit.

 

According to my calculations.... the Video showed the launch 1 second after the video began. You then crossed the line at 15 seconds.... Slow day Steve?

No, Phi Sig (Phi Sigma Kappa). Chapter is Sigma Epsilon. A little confusing, but oh well I didn't name it! Irony is Phi Sigma Epsilon merged with Phi Sigma Kappa which created a real mess in the names!

 

I partied at their house at cmu for the mardi gra party last year. It was a blast.

I lived with Phi Sigma Phi's last year. and Theta Ki's before that.

He's put some others up lately that are better, but taxman has convinced me it's time to mount a camera in my car when I get on the track.

Best time that night was a 12.88 @ 115 on cold tires (couldn't heat them up). Average time was 13.1 @ 115, street or drag radial didn't really matter that much. The place is a grease pit.

Here's some filming we did in car at the NMCA this last weekend.

These were both 9.7 second passes. We did one in a high 7 second car but it pulled enough g's to cause the record head to pop off the tape and all we got was a black image!
