Talking Another Music Video - Import Shodown Competition @ Drag Strip

I haven't had a chance to get out and tape some more good footage to make more videos with lately... however, I did compile together my videos of my competing runs at Import Showdown and put some music to it... very short video (2 minutes). Enjoy. =]

High Quality Version (24.7)
Low Quality Version (8.83mb)

Was running 93 octane + 100% methanol.

I went to the track, raced, came home, and went to work the next morning without changing anything on my car's setup except for tire pressure.


The competition was heads-up racing. I crossed the line faster than everyone else. =]

It's a lot more expensive than living with your parents.

But the cost of living (incl. housing) is much lower than in NYC.

His superior reaction times overcame the difference in ET.

Interestingly, the one really fast 2G that broke had a better R/T (only one that did) on the race where Charles had by far his best R/T, but it didn't matter. Gotta finish to win!

Here we go again!!!!

Yes I know cost of living is lower but I was wanted to know about how quality of life is down there i.e. crime, cleanliness, job opportunities etc.


but when I do get my own place, you're invited to my house warming

Actually, I had a faster reaction time than the 2G that broke... but his reaction time was very fast none the less.

My R/T = 0.011
His R/T = 0.034

But thanks for the compliments... hehe, I love heads-up racing now. Thanks to Valerie (Dragonfly) for helping me learn how to tree with a faster reaction time. =]

Oh, sorry, all you wrote was:

"How's life down there as far as housing goes?"

I didn't know we/he/they were supposed to infer that you were asking about "crime, cleanliness, job opps" in with your question that only mentioned housing.
