looks like your gasoline level went down about 2 pegs between the first and last run... did you post those in the same chronological order as you took the footage?

geez. if you guys love making videos so much, and i mean eveyrone who makes them not just you NoVa. Then invest in a car mount for you cameras. They make failry inexpensive ones for you little miniDV cams. You have so much more awesome vids to post. people would be wondering how in the hell you did it.

...because its fun to do 90 on streets with slower moving traffic and pedestrians right?

What a DUMBASS!!!!

I hope that when you eventually do crash, it only involves your car and a telephone pole.

Doing 90 on 5-lanes HW (65 speed limit is one thing and zipping accross interscetions at 90 is another (real dump) thing!

Have you thouht what would be the penalty of being caught doing 90 in a 35! wtf, you are also taping the evidence to make the proscuter job easier....

What if you run a red light doing 90 and hit some poor soul?!!....

Okay if this would be of interest to you all.. I will tape my 1/4 mile runs at the NE dragway this April 5th, I will stick my F717 under the headrest of the front passanger... My F171 can capture straight MPEG1 movies.
This would be LEGAL!

I ain't agianst driving fast, but to brag about it and film it is stoopid. Plus we all have the same car, we know what it does, so what was the point? And who is filming? If it was you then, extra dumb. Doing 90 in a 35 , with no center barrier, other cars and peds on the road, and your holding a camera?!?! Far be it for me to lecture anyone, but if you stop to think that 20+mph is a felony that could land you in jail.....I wonder what 55+ will get you? Guaranteed you won't be hearing that sweet VTEC for a long long time. Wisen up a bit, dude, don't like seeing anyone get fuck cuz of dumb choices.

oh shit wait, that was fillmed when I had new stock tires, so stock tires w/ around 3000 miles on them.
The key w/ launching when you have stock tires is to don't slam the gas out of the hole, instead be easy on the gas for like a 1~1.5 seconds then WOT

Nova don't get me wrong I appreciate the effort that you put forth but for your own sake try to refrain from doing something like this again. For you own safety and others but nice fawking vids. your car accelerated so much faster than the G35.

I don't know if its capable of seeing both footage at the same time the G35 and the cL-S. In my opinion the cl-S is much quicker than the G... the G did have a much nicer exhaust tone :

Even thogh it's a decent transmission (), autos take a long time to shift. It is so much quicker and more fun to slam through the gears

why would you want to be shifting more when your racing....don't you think its better to hold one gear instead of going throw 2 or 3 to reach the same speed. Now being more fun that goes without saying but the car holding 2 gear longer than the 6 speed I don't see how that is a problem.

Hey Joe nice vids. All the whiners eat a dick.

One last run before the 19s.

Man the VTEC sound is so addicting. No G35 will ever get that sound.

Wow, I knew this was familiar but didn't realize how much so. I ran my Maxima (3.5L) rental pretty hard down that road just a last month.

I was stuck at the treatment plant most of the time along with entertaining our valued clients.

It is hard work supporting the people who keep your water clean...

I tried that the last time I went to the track, and it was my worst run of the night. All the other times I just punched it and the runs were ~ .2 sec faster.
