Default Round 2 at the Flashlight Drags (Vids Inside)

Saturday was the second time for Flashlight Drags at the Clarion County Airport. Once again, I got videos. My Azure Pearl tC is in the far lane in every video except the last one. I raced 9 times! It was so crazy, I couldn't race everyone that wanted to.
Fist I took on an S2000. I got schooled. When setting up the race, I thought it would be close, then he smoked an 04 or 05 GTO and I was like, uh oh. This Honda was insane!

Then I challenged an SRT-4, I was disappointed that I didn't fare better. I launched very poorly.

Then I challenged and smoked a Mustang GT. It was an 01 or 02 I think. I've waited a long time to do this.

Then a Solara SLE V6 challenged me. No contest.

Then I raced a CRX with a B16. He did not disclose that he was running a 65 shot of Nitrous until after the race. I thought I won, he thought he won, nobody else could tell. A draw?

Then an Acura Legend with a 3.2 V6 challenged me. He was saying "It's 320 hp". I think his mouth is more powerful than his engine.

Then I easily beat a Mazdaspeed Protege. Sorry, no video.
Then a Grand Prix GTP Competition Group challenged me. Silly supercharged Pontiac.

Then in the Top Tuner Event, I lost to a WRX. I hate AWD in the 1/8th mile. He lost in the semis against the SRT-4 that won the championship. I'm in the near lane this time. The video didn't catch the beginning, just me pullin hard on him at the end.

Hope you enjoyed the videos. Thanks to my stepdad and step-brother -in-law for recording them. Let me know what you think.

Thanx dude. I'm dyin 2 race a Cobalt SS Supercharged! I know it might sound cocky, but an RSX Type is no match for me w/o some mods. There was 1 there Saturday, but it got beat by the RX-8 that I destroyed last month. I wish I had a video of the S2000 beating the GTO. It was beautiful.

NICE, you doing it with the S/C. Pretty freakin cool dude. What is the specs on your S/C tC.

You did pretty good against the SRT-4 IMO. And crazy how you started pulling on the Subie.

PS...Are you trying to give me competition for having the most vids on SL or something....LOL.

Just wait, I have at least 2 more events this summer.
Thanks for the props dude. As far as specs? Only power mods are the Supercharger w/ 9 psi pulley and Bosch 110 BPV. I'm guessing I'm layin down 210 - 220 hp. I could have done better against the SRT-4. Hopefully I'll have a Stiffy by next month and I can launch better.

that's super. The flashlight drags kill me.

It's all legit, they rent the airstrip for several hours.

You gotta come through. I'm always the only Scion. 3 of the 8 cars in the Top Tuner Event were friggin SRT-4's! I'm the only one reppin Toyota at these events. I haven't been to Zelie this year, but the last couple of years I was the only one. At least NOW they know what my car is. If you get cooled, I hafta see your setup.
