VIDEO of my GN at the Track

I went to the track a couple of weeks ago. This is my second time out. Still ironing out some bugs but the car is running very well overall.

On this pass I left at 12psi. It lifted the front tires a couple of inches of the ground. I blew off some hoses right around the 1/8th. Ran a ****ping 11.3 @100mph.

Hope you enjoy GN videos as much as I do.

From the video it certainly looked like a foot brake launch. Hard to tell though.

It was a easy launch off the trans brake.

Why did the censor edit my original post where I wrote "who p ping" without the space obviously. That's weird.
