I have one clip where I was close to my power band in 3rd (60 mph) and shifted at redline and eventually got into 3 digits. It still looked like I was standing still. Mind you, I was the one holding the camera and trying to shift at the same time.

Pretty f*ckin awesome seeing you guys do runs side-by-side right in the valley of two mountains.

What gear were you guys starting from. I'm assuming 3rd.

BTW that stretch of road had no one but our 5 Zs on it. In the middle of the day on a Saturday. No way you could get conditions like that around here.

Seeing 4 Forged Built/Tuned cars go at it at highest boost is always a fun time. I can honestly say, that Alberto shifts faster than anything I have ever seen. His whole body goes into some kind of seizure, with all appendages moving in some kind of highly choreographed motions....and then bam..next gear. Never seen anything like that before.

That road was NICE!
