The camera is a Sony HDR-SR12. I have no complaints about it. And thanks for the comments.

I was pretty cool to watch live...not bad in the video.

Skip the water if you aren't doing a burnout. Creates wheelslip for the right lane and probably is causing some of the hop issue.

[66stang357]

Pretty sure the wheel hop was one hundred percent caused by the worn out suspension...very worn out.

[Hotrodx199]

There's me in the passenger seat of the old pete!

First, I'd say anyone running a 12V71 is anything but a wannabe. :) God I want a 2-stroke Detroit in my bus conversion!!!! I got a wimpy 429 gasser.... It's not FAIR!

But, yeah, big surprise, all things being equal, of course the turbo is going to come out ahead..... What did you expect? LOL

[HedgehogOutdoors]

@Hotrodx199 Just got here from your video! Looks a lot rougher of a launch from this view!

[Onco400]

@66stang357 Well that suspension wasn't exactly intended for drag racing when it was new LoL!

There's an old 12v71 generator that is rusting away in the elements behind a machine shop near my house. I look at it longingly every morning on the way to work...

[007gatorman]

Man, I WANT one of those!

[whorayful]

Wheel spin the entire strip, yeahhh

[markification]

The blue one was spinning tires allthe way to the end

After watching this my monitor smells like disel fumes. I wiped it with alcohol and it still smells.

@HawaiianMachinist I think it is very few people anymore that can "Jake shift" anything let alone a screaming jimmy, ya can damn near speed shift them without the Jake's

[Hotrodx199]

@AggregateDood Now to think of it, i might do that.
