Default Me vs 98 Firebird

He say's I have a "shift kit" but I don't...

My mods: Invidia V3 w/ TP + Muz Countersunk

This was a pretty empty 4 lane road so we made sure not to endanger anyone while doing this and the car that you see flip a U-Turn during the 40 roll was a friend. Anyways - Enjoy the video.

Run 1 from a stop: S2000 wins
Run 2 40mph roll: S2000 wins

I really need my CDV removed

***Video is back up***

He uploaded it on myspace so I'm sorry if that causes problems, if anyone else is able to save it and host it on something else feel free to do so.

Kudos to the Firebird owner for accepting that he got owned by a 4 banger.

I know for a FACT that he was NOT stock because he rev'd it up before we went at it and it sounded like he had atleast exhaust and intake, so for him to say that he's completely stock seemed iffy to me and my friend that set it up also said that he wasn't stock... I think it's just a slight lie to make up for him losing but who knows. Either way, he's a cool guy, we shook hands afterwards and all ate lunch together, it was a good afternoon.

Thats pretty lame that he put Formula in his video then.... sorta making the LS1 look bad, since from the video, one might think that you just beat an LS1 car.
