Video of my car accelerating...

Guys. I took a video today of the tach/speedo from about 10mph to about 90mph. The 1st to 2nd shift wasn't the greatest (RPMs dropped a bit too much), but you can see the car lose traction in 1st, 2nd and a very poor 3rd gear chirp. You can see the car pulls very hard from 6K to 7.5K.

Basically... had the car rolling around 10mph and then slowly floored it. It's a little bumpy cuz I was holding the camera AND steering wheel with my left hand while shifting with my right

Now I need someone to host it... only 250KB (low res).

Exhaust is stock with the catalytic convertor... so it isn't as quick as I hoped it would be.

so you've got your car running again? I've been behind on the updates. That's good though.

allmotor,
if its only 250 kb, i will be glad to host it. i have about 1500 mb worth of transfer left for the month so it would be cool. email it to me at power3dfx@hotmail.com

Yeah, can't wait, by the way, a cool way to record is to have the strap adjusted to view the tach and speedo from around your neck. Can you list your mods allmotor?

The video will probably be up in the morning... Scrib is probably asleep right now (east coast).

Mods: Custom CAI, extrude-honed & ported intake manifold, billet TB, Comptech Header, UR Pulleys, Comptech Clutch/Flywheel.

You'll notice the RPM's drop quickly between shifts.... ala flywheel.

Damn, @ 2k RPM you loose tons of traction. Launching from 0 must be damn impossible.

yeah, that's pretty typical when flooring 6speeds with power up in the power band. Mine is pretty bad as well. 1st gear is pretty bad without headers. I want to get them in the worst way but my fear is that i'm just going to loose more traction lower in the RPM range.

Thanks... 1st gear has absolutely no traction. I sort of didn't shift correctly as you can tell.

It's fun

What's funny is that I drove it once without the exhaust (stock cat though) and its noticeably quicker - only thing I go deaf and can't quite hear the motor anymore.
