CNN Report on Racing... Possible TL in Video

Kinda stupid but I figure since I think I spot a TL in it, may as well post it.

The TL is the silver car at 0:13-0:15. Looks like a TL-P and w/ tints on the back windows. I think he's winning too

So whoever's TL it is, ... your on CNN!!

I guess it's a good thing that there's no real or current news to report on. Street racing? OMG....it really exists?

LOL!
Wasn't there also one in the very beginning of the video? A first gen maybe?
Who takes a TL to an organized street race? That's sad.

Oops, sorry, I only glanced at it, haha. Anyhow, it looks like the right lane was a 3G, but that TL thing looks like a Maxima, too...

Sorry for the "dumbass" remark. Lack of sleep will make you rather candid, haha.

I race at the track, but what's stopping people from bringing whatever they've got to the street races? Just like the "Run What Ya Brung" races at drag strips, people bring what they could afford to buy, or what they liked and bought. I have a good friend of mine who sometimes wonders why he spent over $100K on his Eclipse when the same money could've gotten him a used Ferrari. People ask him the same thing, but his response is, "Well, that's what I had when I started out, so that's what I built." The world record at El Mirage and 0.4MPH shy of the world record at Bonneville are just two of the things he's achieved in his FWD monster. Redlining fifth is what made him miss the record at Bonneville, so now that he's geared for 225MPH, we'll see what he can do. Show me a $100K Ferrari that can do that, .

~Cheers~

P.S. I love how every thread in Racing & Comp goes OT, haha.

P.P.S. Here's an engine bay shot:

Well like every modded car he starts off with something small and puts more and more money into, but that's incredible he managed to get 100K into that car, I haven't made that much in all my lifetime. lol
