Agreed. Very high quality videos and great mounting location. Those AMG 5.5L Bi-Turbo engines seem like a tuners paradise, but good to see that with just a little piggyback the Switzer and BMS tunes are doing great stuff. I almost can't even imagine what a Renntech equivalent tune would do for an M5 engine. Over 2 years and still waiting. Come on ESS where you at?! Lol!

Thanks Nick. I will be out at the next airstrip event hosted by Omega Motorsports March 29-30, so hopefully you can make it out too and we can run then.

Nice seeing you as always.

Eric, your camera setup inside the car was a much better idea. Stealing it next time.
When is the next event you are going to?

It was my first time using a double go pro setup and due to being nervous before the event I didnt spend enough time with it.

I have to look into this. Wife just told me she won't mind going to another if Eric brings his wife.

Dude, you know any you videos you post are great for the rest of us to watch... the stuff your wife shot was awesome too! How else would I have known about the run at minute 30:00 if I wasn't eating every second of it up.

I think events like these are awesome and just wish I could play. I work a half mile from a 2.1 mile by 300ft wide stretch of concrete that would be perfect for something like this if only it were allowed...

Haha I went through 20GB's of my vids from two go pros on the car and didnt like any of them. Need to practice more, but life takes over most of the time and have other priorities. Maybe Dave has some extra time and can teach me some editing skills.

2.1 mile stretch. That would be my second home.

What a great event!



I have been talking to Jason @ Shift S3ctor about bringing it to the East Coast.
We all recognize there are very few suitable venues, at least in the Northeast = no definite timetable.
