Well this just sucks, I can't get my fricken' video camera to upload the video to my PC .

I installed the correct Sony USB drivers but can't figure out for the life of me how to upload it onto my hardrive.

That was awesome!!! I had some guy behind that was talking about the galant saying that it wouldn't do worth a crap. I told him if it's AWD and turbo, and the guy know how to launch, there won't be anything to catch it. And I was right!! Only one race lost. To great competition I might add. That camaro is fast as hell. Straight line it would be a toss up, but launching and corners belonged to the vr-4. Nobody there would believe me that the galant would do so well. They were shut up in a hurry on the first race!!! Good job out there!!

BTW, that little Civic hatch was doin pretty good too. The way he was blowing smoke, I gotta believe he's turbo'd and running way rich.

Thanks man!

Somebody else in the crowd got some footage from Saturday. It shows the Gaylant running a GTP and a what I believe is a 454SS pickup as well as other peoples whips.

Yeah, overcorrection FTL. My girl got a better camera angle of it (looked like his rear wheel was going to snap off when he went sideways). The crowd's reaction was priceless.

I'm on my way to a friends house to edit my footage so it should be up soon.

not sure of elko's site. i dislike the owner and they are quite expensive.

they both have schedules of their events. spectator drags will most likely be on a "eve of destruction" night.

Heading out to Raceway Park on Labor day. It's the year end championship race with the winners from all the other events. The Galant has some clutch issues but if I keep the boost down and don't launch to hard it will hopefully hold up.

I should be getting some video footage.
