Blast from the past - drag strip video!

Hey guys, long time, no post! Some of you may remember me as an old member here who had an ABP CLS-6 for about a year. It was a great car - maybe one day I'll get another as a daily driver.

Well I was uploading some videos on Youtube and though I would share with you all the 2 runs I have on video from running the CLS-6 @ the track.

Click here to see the video!

This was my first time out, so my times were mediocre, but as you can see in the video, I did manage a 14.3 @ 97 later on. Also, you can see how traction limited the car and conditions are. Even with full traction upon launch, the tires break loose while going WOT in 1st.

Hope you liked the vid, here's some pics too:





So has anyone done a RWD-conversion NSX swap yet?

Loving the Z06! Very different than a 2+2 sports coupe, but if it catches your drift, go test drive one to really understand!

Yes, as the title says, stock + Comptech Icebox. Your 01 should be able to run similar times; maybe just a tad quicker (say 14.2 or so) - assuming you have stock tires.
