    I'm assuming youtube would be the easiest way to do the video ?
    Your candor is noted..as is your antiquity. 8 track it is !!!

    I actually have it in photobucket but none of the link options allow it to play here or in PB so Im assuming the upload is corrupt...like me and most of you

    I move it to my PC as a quicktime file and photobucket does appear to have converted it to an MP4 albeit not so well. Thats where I am guys.

        Turns out I had a youtube account all along...or was that xtube...hell I hope Im uploading the right video. Kids close your eyes.

        Its telling me only 3 weeks until its fully uploaded.

        Update..now it seems that to reactivate a dormant youtube account I need views of my old uploads. One is from my HS prom (which I did not go to) and the other is my 1st DIY about 8 track tape repair.

                  Using the video time as a measure it looks like I made it from 60 mph at 0:55mins to 100mph at 1:01 so my 60-100mph time is 6 secs. Then I hit 120mph at 1:04 which puts my 60-120mph time at 9 seconds. Kinda slow..... I will have to work on that. I am still learning this "new" car and power.

                  The wastegate spring is a large green spring for my 44mm Tial which is rated at .8bar or 11.6 psi and I don't have a boost controller as of yet so this is running on the low side of my boost goals.

                  And just so you know the gear change was from 3rd to 4th and this is still with just minimal tuning on above 90 cells on the VE table.

                      Looks pretty fun !

                      Can't wait to see what it puts down on the dyno with full tuning.

                          Thanks Otis. That is saying a lot coming from you!! If you get up to the Vintage I would love it if you take it for a spin and give me your thoughts
                          It will be tuned by then and running as much boost as my tires can handle.

                            After doing some research on 60-100mph times and reviewing my video I am impressed with the time. 1st point, I started at 60mph from a deceleration and all vacuum.... The official numbers posted by supercars are derived from a continuous pull from 0 mph up to a speed well above 100, so no loss of boost/power. 2nd point, I shifted during the pull even though my gearing will take the car past 100mph in 3rd gear. SOOOO I will be attempting this time again correcting these two very important details because as it is my current (messed up) 60-120 pull is already in the company of cars such as the Ferrari 512m and the Noble M12 GTO-3r which both do it in 5.1 seconds. I would like to see my car do better and post a 4 second pull at 11psi which will put in the company of the Koenigsegg CC8S. Doable? You betcha!

                                I love driving this car! Except for last night. After 3k miles on the new engine my coolant system decided it was no longer happy with the half ass bleeding job I initially did and I found my self sitting at a gas station last night trying to add and bleed the system so that I could continue my enjoyable evening ride.

                                Another attempt today for the 60-100mph. Same tune, same low boost, just different approach. I feel like I can definitely do it faster even with the current tune and boost. But in this video I am dead on 5 seconds flat.



                                How do you embed this thing?
