My sister recently sent me some vids of my car racing at Warwick drags. I had no idea she had recorded the footage, so i was really pleased when she handed me the disc. Especially since it,s the first time i,ve ever seen my car on film.
There are two races that were in the heats then one of the final. You,ll know the final because she jumped up and down then realized she was still filming, sooooo funny.
Anyways turn the volume up and enjoy.
Have a great weekend.

Cheers Col

Thanks for sharing "coliwobble"....(!)

Yes, your ratios were quite short, sounded like a nice spread thru the gears.
Care to share the ratios? (pm if top secret).

Mine were:
5.4286 diff
3.3000 first
2.0588 second
1.5789 third
1.2174 fourth

Nothing top secret about my car Dave just lots of TEM on my part and Larrys, aka Keith Hauesler.

4.375 diff
3.80 first
2.06 second
1.58 third
1.21 fourth
all wraped up in a 1976 single side plate box, 2300 pound kennedy clutch plate.
Yer Daimo i was happy with the cars performance and for once even the driver got his shit together.
