racing vids of me and Scotty - FINALLY!

s10rodder · #1 08-04-2006, 06:32 AM

I finally got a chance to upload some videos...

the first two are of me running against the Viper power Dodge SRT10 p/u. The second run where the camera is all shaky is the run I blew my driveshaft and bellhousing on. You can\'t even tell anything happened in the video.

the 2nd vid is the infamous ScottyS15 running against a suprisingly quick neon SRT4. Of course Scotty takes him off the line for the win!

Scotty vs SRT4

S10s = 3. Dodge = 0.

oh yeah, the run that killed my driveshaft was a 12.7 @ 115.

Wow, who owns that Bad-Ass Black S-10 with the awesome WHEELS!?

Yes, a bad night for the Dodges vs. S-10s.

I think that I may have run that SRT p/u earlier myself.

As for the last run where you tossed the driveshaft,

I watched that race from the stands at the starting line, and had no clue that you had a problem. So go figure.

As for MY video, thanks a ton for that, Andy.

And as for your cameraman, he might have done better. But hey, but he DID get a decent shot of my run.

And if I knew I was being taped, and shown on the WWW, I might have favored the near lane, and made a serious WOT run.

Yeah, right.

scotty, what are you turnning in the 1/8 mile on a 11.90 run? im running around 7.55 - 7.70 depending on weather. just wondering were i stand on the 1320 (1/4)......

Nice videos guys. S10rodder- with that MPH you have a lot left in it, nice truck. I havent even had mine ot the track this year yet- sucks.

Next run I kept it from spinning TOO bad for a 2.38 60 and a 12.734@115.18 @ 115.18. Not bad, especially considering the 2nd - 3rd shift twisted my driveshaft in half. It was a brand new driveshaft too.

But Andy may have gone faster, I\'m not sure. The motor is making plenty of power, that\'s for sure.

For Carkiller:

On that 11.90 run, the 1/8 was 7.52 @ 90 mph. So, you should be in the 11s I\'d think, weather permitting.

My best 1/8 time is 7.38, and that was probably was a 11.7 run.

scotty you still running that s10 i got my old one back when you going to be at englishtown again?

I wana go and run my truck

Scotty_S-15 · #8 08-21-2006, 05:04 AM

Hey Rich! Sure, I\'m still running that ol\' truck. In fact, was there Friday night. Pretty good air, squeaked a 11.7 out if it on one run (11.799

) It\'d be great to meet up with you one Friday night.

.......... I\'ll give a shout when it looks like I\'ll get down there next. Or, vs. versa, give me a shout if there are no showers in the forecast.

........... My problem is that I never know for certain if I can be there until last minute. Weather is a factor, because I drive there on drag radials with no tread left,

And the other problem is my work, which dictates much.

RICH7 · #9 08-21-2006, 07:13 AM

got ya was there a guy there friday night with a black s10 with an v8 in it. One of my buddies called me friday night and asked me if i was there because they said they saw a truck that looked just like mine there?

watching that video gives me flash backs. lol.

In other news, I think the fiance and I have found \"the one\" in our house searching.

It\'s got pretty much everything we want, in a nice quiet neighborhood with easy access to jersey and the allentown, bethlehem area, where I\'ll probably be working after the move. Aside from the 2 car attached garage, there\'s a 2 story 20x20 detached shop with heat and electric.

oh yeah, I went out there during the weekend without the realtor just to drive around and get a feel for the area. The street one block over is COVERED in burnout marks made by what appear to be some serious tires. There was a guy nearby working in his 3 car detached garage... from what I could see he had a 442 and a 2nd gen camaro with slicks up on a lift - yes, my possible future negihbor has a lift.
