What were you against on the second video?
Oh, if you want to download the videos from youtube, I use keepvid . com to get them on my computer. just copy the video link and the rest will be pretty apparent on the site

The second car was a Hyundai genesis 2.0 turbo.

My boost was around 17 psi but running a bit rich too at about 10.5:1

Thanks! Congrats to you on your 13 second run on 18 psi! My van weighs 500 lbs less than yours and on 18 psi i only run 89 mph.

That launch looked kickass for a van. When my old 3.0 dynasty was trapping the same, i got a 2.0 60' and still only did 15.2. You are going a half-second quicker with almost the same 60' and mph so i think you're pretty much going as quick as you possibly can with the power you have..

Nice work!

I know if i am going to win a race i have to get a pretty good lead by the 1/8th mile so they don't drive around me with their better speeds.

Thanks! I am pretty happy with how it has been running. The night was nice and cool at about 65* so that probably helped a bunch.

When I raced at rocky mountain raceway, I was about .7 et and 5-6 mph slower than racing at a sea level track.

That's cool, how long ago did you run at Rocky Mountain? I definitely think it would be fun to get a few runs at sea level, instead of our 4400' just to see the difference I know it runs a bit better in Vegas, but that track is still 2200' feet.

I ran the nhra points race there back in 1999, I've also raced vegas as well a few times.
