Default In-car clip of E-Town NJ Auto-x

I posted a new clip on my web page...

Some notes:

1) That sound you hear after the spin is my engine running backwards on 3 cylinders. One of the spark wires came off during the spin, and the clutch was out

2) I don't look ahead far enough

3) The car is setup with 300# F / 400# R coil overs and a rear sway bar, Yok A520 and a LSD

4) The spin was AFTER the best run (36s+1cone), but they are backwards in the clip

5) listen for the launch limiter at the begining of the second run- that's the Hondata launch limiter set at 3500 RPM

Use the "save as" feature, it works better

Thanks to everyone!
Sean

Yea, I didn't see or feel that spin coming! A little too much throttle (is that possible?)

looks more like u lifted on the left and it stepped out. but u didn't throttle it and it kept going and u corrected alot. then when it cought the wheel was so far to the right that it went right around. at leat that is what it looks/ sounds like to me.
