Crazy - Found a video of me at the track

I couldn't believe it. I was bored so I was just watching some videos on Streetfire when I decided to type in the name of the track I go to "Edgewater" near Cincinnati, OH.

I saw this Rx7 with a V-8 swap that looked familiar so I clicked on the video and low and behold, he was racing me. I about crapped. After watching the video I decided to read the comments. Interesting but some typical flames back and forth as you’d expect. Anyways, I remember chatting with this guy at the track. He's a pretty nice guy. He hasn't really done anything to the engine yet so there's a lot of potential. But in one of his comments he said my car was pretty maxed out. Agreed but maxed out only on the 20g-9. Heck, I’m still on stock internals. We’ll have to remedy this soon. Green turbo & tune, here I come.

This thread may be in the wrong section so I apologize if it is.

Well, you better get a ride quick because I'm looking to upgrade within the next month!

Man, finding this video freaked me out. I wasn't expecting to see me racing. At least I didn't miss any gears on that run!

I know there is. My best time is 11.7 but my best mph is 119.3. I just suck at driving. I know the car could do an 11.5 with a better driver.

I wish I had a 9! I would have saved a lot more money on mods, meaning I wouldn't have needed as many to do what your doing. (Based on trap speed)
