Attempt #2 went better.... At first. I did 3rd, 4th, and 5th gear 50-80 pulls. I was going to do a 6th gear pull but my empty highway became crowded. So I got off the highway to head home, and promptly hit a piece of metal in the road and took out my oil pan, steering rack, o2 sensor, exhaust, and some other shit. Needless to say, there won't be any more videos from me this year.

Damn, that's fast, JGood! I'm more than a little envious.
Bummer about the piece of metal, though. Hope you get it fixed soon.
For statistical sake, the times for yours were (approx):
3rd 3.5
4th 4.6
5th 5.1
