Okay, I think I got a way to share my vids. Please download the video and test to see if it works. I want to see what kind of bandwidth I get too, so tell me if the link doesn't work or you get a message.

Me vs LT stick shift from a stop. You can see I pull best once I hit 3rd gear. He told me he did not mis-shift at all. Once my fiancee (who was recording) goes back to filming his car, you can see he's a few lengths back. (this is also when I let up... about 100mph)

Race with LT1

 

Niceeee!

Flawlessly executed run!

(btw, what mods do you have? i'm sure everyone else here knows, but i'm pretty new here....sorry, trying to catch up )

Also, your wife sounds like she was having fun! We need more women like that!

Keep em coming!

 

Thanks for checking it out and giving feedback.

My car is stock, but I have been told by several people (including members here) that I'm a good driver. I also would like to get my car dyno'd so I can find out what my car is putting down for RWHP.

My fiancee(soon to be wife) was surprised by my takeoff. Yeah she has fun.

Hey Wisconsin,

I got a question. Peter Pan said that you have a "freak S". I assume he's implying that your car is faster than the norm. I know that not all cars of the same make/model are the EXACT same in performance b/c there are so many factors involved. BUT, I've run bikes for a LONG time and I know that in the beginning, if you run a bike hard, it tends to be faster later. Of course, without a "proper" break-in period, this will affect the life of the motor too. Basically a trade-off of sorts. That leads me to my question. Is that the same for cars? Also, did you go through the "proper break-in" procedure as Honda dictates? Thanks man!

Also, Peter Pan, sorry to hear about your gf....life without VTEC in an S?? BLASPHEMY! hahahah...jk....sort of.

 

I hav heard about the thing with the bikes, but have no idea if that goes for cars too.... I got my car with about 700miles on it already, so I do not know if it was properly broken in, seeing as how it was a demo car. So in other words, probably not broken in right. It was probably flogged every day. So who knows? But I do plan to dyno my car this summer to see for sure if I have a factory freak or not.

BTW, Wis what happened to the LT1 in the video??
I expected more of a close race. The LT1s must be REAL SLOWWW from a roll.....


My gf loves my car too, but she doesn't like it when I engage above 6k rpm mark.

What do u expcet from a girl..She's only a gurl... actually she's older than me.

 

Great run and great video! You had him by about 2 cars which is roughly .2 in the 1/4 mile. That's about what I would have predicted for a stock LT1. It looks like you both got good launches and clean runs. The LT1's really start to laydown around 80MPH. When I race stock to lightly modded LT1's it's a good run until I hit 3rd gear. Then start pulling hard.
