Dragonfly Posted June 26, 2003 Share Posted June 26, 2003 Last Thursday I went to the racelegal 1/8 mile drags with my new Nitto 555 drag radials, a friend of mine took video of the races so I thought I would share them. Here is a link to the mpegs http://www.imagestation.com/album/?id=4289844391, this is on Imagestation and it requires that you be a member in order to view. If anyone would like to host these in an esier to access environment please let me know and I will get the mpegs to you. Dragonfly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David K Posted June 26, 2003 Share Posted June 26, 2003 I see what the problem is. Good ol Miles accidently added a "." or "," at the end of that url. try this http://www.imagestation.com/album/?id=4289844391 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PETEW Posted June 26, 2003 Share Posted June 26, 2003 Nice times. What does that come out to in the 1/4 mi. Looks like you whooped up on those guys. Those nittos really hook up. I am going to have to get a set. Thanks for the videos. Always good to see a Z'er taking to everyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragonfly Posted June 26, 2003 Author Share Posted June 26, 2003 I have not run the car in the 1/4 so I don't know what its Q.M. times would be. The tires hook up well enough that they knocked .4 seconds off my 1/8 mile time. I did only put the races that I won but on the other hand I won 9 of the 10 races that I ran, the only one I lost was a mustang that ran 8.5 seconds at 88 mph and the video was similar to the first one (kinda hard to see) so I decided to leave it out. BTW my best run was 9.0xx seconds at 76.xx mph. I think with a few more runs on these tires I should get into the very high 8's as I was knocking several houndreths of a second off each run.

Guest Your Car is Slow Posted June 26, 2003 Share Posted June 26, 2003 9.0 at that mph would equate to low low 14s in the 1/4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AKWIKZ Posted July 5, 2003 Share Posted July 5, 2003 I thought I'd jump in on this. Miles was running very consistently, and quite quick. I do have to make a point about the video of him racing against me in the yellow Roadster though. The angle only shows the start at which Miles got a huge jump on me with a great start. What is not shown clearly is the finish, at which I had reeled him in. Miles did still win the race, but not as the video might have you believe. He ran a 9.234@76.01 to my 9.237@83.48. This may seem petty to some, but I have an ego to protect just the same as everyone else. By looking at the video, you'd think I was walloped by four car lengths.
