yup that was fun... too bad the camera man didnt know how to turn the damn thing on sooner so we could of caught the begining. basically josh (redballboy) got a little bit of a jump on me cuz he counted down, but i was suprised at how he pulled with a little jump. i'm used to letting people get the jump and nothing has pulled like that lol. and he also forgot to add that the run was before he changed the sparkplug wires on his car, his car ran like a*s before. so next time we go it should be pretty good.

PS: don't hate jaredjames, the post is about a thirdgen racing a 4th. plus i used to own an 89 camaro rs, thats why i'm a member here

yeah you guys should (if you aren't already) film some more races and post them. I don't know about everyone else but I love seein video clips of f-body's. moreso because mine is being restored and the only guy I know in my town that has a maro' is rebuilding the motor and re-painting it.

yea we do plan on filming more races, but i won't post them if there isn't a 3rd gen in the video... i know they'll prolly get deleted. but anything with either redballboy's or anyone elses will definitely be posted. just give it like another month and we'll have some good racing vidz.

actually he wasn't shifting manually, he just had it in first b/c we were going from a slow roll and his tranny would of shifted into 2nd. he only left it in first so that there was no lag from the auto downshifting.
