you can't determine the speed of a car by any means by watching a video. the only way to determine a car's speed is proper timing at a track. i've had videos where it looked like I ran a 13 flat and I certainly can't run 13 flat.

that said, it's a good video, and nice sounding car.

one more question.... why does your revs jerk around so much as you get ready to launch? that seems odd to me...

He's simply blipping the throttle.

Very very nice driving, and I thought I could shift quick! Impressive.

Looks like a very low 13 depending on what mph you had.
