videos from tonight at NED, any of you go? question about one car...

[speedingpenguin]

Went up there tonight with a few friends....didnt see any cars that really stood out from this site.
Anyway, how can i convert .mov files to .mpg or whatever?
Anyone know anything about that 9 second POS car? talk about sleeper!
stalled out toward the end of the night though...took him a while to get it going....

I was there and a buddy finally figured out WTF was wrong with my car ( intake temp sensor had a cut wire ). After we fixed that I got one decent run in, 11.35@123. The new Hoosiers hook up ! Although they still are spinning. I will try less air in them next time( as Jesse recommened ). :thumbsup:

Thanks ! I appreciate it when people can respect * any * car, regardless of the engine size. :thumbsup: I know I certainly can.
Looking forward to seeing your car in person.

i think you are probably talkign about the 9 scond toyota starlet or corolla. those things are WICKED sleepers. you dont know what hit you till it blows past you at light speed.

Well not purevl. i think it would scare the shit out of the guy in the starlet to see a 4th gen camaro keeping right with him.

[speedingpenguin]

I put together a little video of all the vids combined, in wmv format, but its like 5.7 MB and i dont have enough space on my comcast account, if anyone can host it i'll email it to ya....

Crazy rotary boriqua rides = owned every launch.


Those cars are all toilets, 1 of every 20 passes actually goes as planned, otherwise they are puking driveshafts, blowing rears, nuking the motor, shattering the trans, of going out of control and hitting something.

I was there last nite, silver 2002 GT. That corolla was fast ill give it that, but I would not be caught dead driving it. I have a few vids of it if anyone cares to see it.

Mike, I raced against a friend of yours with the gray Mitsubishi 4door. That thing is a sleeper, I was shocked when he went thru the traps at almost 120mph. He was telling me about your car. I recognize it from your sig.

[speedingpenguin]

Hmm....Silver mustang....
did you perhapps go up against a silver mustang? haha
my wise-ass friend bet 20 dollars that the mustang would win.....
we still havnt decided which one of us gets the 20 bucks, haha
I've probably got a vid of your car somewhere...

[BONESTOCK]

I was up there!! I saw your car MikeRizz!! Very nice!! :thumbsup:

I brought my car up there to see what I could get...bonestock to the air silencer and all the stock weight! Best was 13.68 @ 103.

I wish it was colder. I heard my Mach 1 goes better in the cold, as does most other cars. LOL!

I only had 300 miles on it...so maybe it need to break in a little more. :)

[speedingpenguin]

I think I saw your car in the pits too.....you were 1 or 2 cars away from another mach 1, right?

[2k2fourpointsix]

Yeah I did reace an identical car, except he had a blower. Lucky for me he spun out of the hole, and I won. :smokin:

[speedingpenguin]

This the race?

[2k2fourpointsix]

Yeah penguin that is me in the right lane pulling hard on a car with 150+ HP on my car, lol. can you post it? or email it?

[speedingpenguin]

Yep, here it is.....
Sorry about the water-mark, the software i use isnt registerd (not paying 30 bucks for it either, haha) so at least it doesnt really interfere with the video....lol
