OMG that was awesome!  I love how dad is circling the car like a mother hen, not sure if he is worried about you or the car LOL 

I am shocked how well it runs with like you said a fairly simple set up.  What is the "50 hp off the hit, 2nd gear when it starts spinning" thing?  What was happening there? 

Great run, awesome driving, and fun all around with Dad!  That was badass dude!

Haha thanks man!  It was such a blast we're all smiles today and the comments are great. 

The editing is funny sometimes.  My dad was putting in work between runs. Putting down water for the burnouts and setting tire pressure so back and forth a few times and backing me into my tire tracks, but they cut out all that part so he's just bouncing around lol. 

That surface was so slippery...worse than a bare street it was slurry seal blacktop.  We were leaving on a lower power throttle opening and going to full throttle 1.5s out.  It hazed tire smoke every time going to full throttle lol.  After the test hits we closed the throttle down a little more for the launch and they were trying to figure out what we did.  It was spinning pretty much the whole time lol, but getting better on the leave each time.  If we kept making hits I think we could've actually carried the wheels a bit.  On a prepped track in good conditions the car gets up to the bumper.
