nice. i likethe way they said they are keeping hte names of the drivers anonymous, especially since i have met most of those guys. i guess it is only anonymopus to peopel who haven't been to any gatherings or major car shows on the east coast

great vid though

I've already attempt most of that, my car can't do it ... yet. Anyway, makes me wish I lived on the east coast, the cops would probably just ignore me.

Definately a cool video.
I am trying to get more footage of my friends doing some wild stuff so that I can put together another video with more action.
I actually need to get my car running, I have very little footage of my car, need more.

Here is my cheesy video I slapped togther a while back,

Man that is bad. Kind of sucks though because I cant drive mine until I get my motor in. It seems like it is taking forever. I cant wait. I agree that there needs to be one with more thirdgens though.

seems that they do an awful lot of turning of the steering wheel

to get the tires to light up..

Maybe they can get some cubic inches some day and they can do it in a straight line.

Yeah, that was a cool video... personally, I would've liked to see more of those slick camera angles- like the one where the guy drove over the camera, or the one where the camera gave a fender-side view. More racing past the camera (or maybe two f-bodies passing each other going opposite ways) would've been cool, too. The one shot of the Camaros entering the road from a side street (and kicking out sideways) was beautiful! And hey- video #1? Do we get a second one eventually? Cool!
