    Brother vs Brother (Part 2 w/ video!)

    Oh man, what a race last night. Only thing I have to tell you is that I had my brother's friend in the car with me taping and I had an uncapped downpipe. That and it's a lot colder than last time.

    Enjoy!

    Fair battle. The Acclaim needs a revenge.

    ..what..who... where??? Next time will you let ME compile/edit your vids Bryan! lol! Black text on a night video is VERY hard to read.

    OK..enough criticism... Im a little fussy about how vids are done..never mind me. SO..watched it. It was good. Only thing I can conclude from this vid is that in cars of the same body style and same performance level,the car with the auto will loose.

    I'll be sure to install a 568 or other 5-speed and a 2.2L in my lebaron. I am not gonna loose races because of the stupid slop box a413 wasting over 25-30hp from my engine.

    Nice vid. It has shown me a couple things.

    Re: Brother vs Brother (Part 2 w/ video!)

    Yup, only differences are the drivetrains, the Acclaim has a ported head, Spirit has a stocker, Acclaim has a S60 I/C, Spirit has a Conquest, the Acclaim had an open downpipe, Spirit has a 2.5" crushed Borla exhaust with a cat. AND! The Acclaim weighs nearly 200lbs less! The Acclaim is pushing 103,000 on the stock long block, and my brother's Spirit had just rebuilt the bottom end.

    Barron - I could not figure out how to change the font color! It only let me change the background. Next vid I'll send to you first.

    Putfile hates me, I'll send it to you via AIM. That was down on Rt. 5, it's a 4 lane road that hardly anyone is ever on. Safest place to do a quick drag as there are no other points of merging or intersection.

    The quality would be terrible at 11MB.

    Yah, I guess I'll have to be saying these are my "friends" racing. Or.... we could just make certain areas such as these accessed only be certain people, such as someone whose been here for over a month. Just shooting out thoughts..
