Wow, nice kill.

The Civic had quite a few people in it though .. it probably would have been in a closer race minus the people weight ;- ).

i just hold the camera with one hand and concentrate on driving, that's why the video is so bad. the civic SI can't do that because he's gotta shift

ah yes... the downside to having a manual tranny, not being able to steer, shift, and hold the camera at the same time.

crappy Acura automatic transmissions FTW! lol

it would have been cool if the passenger in the SI was recording, not as much jerkiness and you'd be able to get a different view of the race.

One or two bolt-ons on that Civic and it would've been a different story, and if he had told those other guys to foot it, hehe. Oh BTW, you could've given the camera to the Civic's passenger. It's not like he could run away with it, HAHAHA!!

~Cheers~

nice vid...but race again...this time, have one passenger in each car..and have the other person film. That way...the driver's are concentrating on racing and the race will be more fair with equal number of passengers.

i wish i could be more organized, but this was just two people randomly pulling up to a traffic light and deciding to floor it. no time to think/be fair etc. i'm lucky i got the camera in time
