I noticed it too. It has been sitting for quite some time and really has no driving on it so I am sure it just needed a little heat.

Serious MPH that's for sure!

What suspension is currently on the car? It did look like it porpoised at the release of the clutch.

Tires looked pretty pumped up what psi were in them?

are they older? i read after like 10k the springs are shot in them and need replaced, but when i was running 40psi with the fp black getting peak torque as early as 4500rpm in the 600whp (dj) range i was only spinning 1st gear on the street from a roll (granted its a 9 first gear, goes to 50mph~), the rest of the gears had no traction issues. I never went to the track with them yet tho. the road where i live is pretty rough also tho.
