Default Fun Clips of Crawford Z

So I am using Dougs test Z to try out my new camera mount I made. Dougs car has all the goodies on it (plenum, headers, cats, exhaust). The pavement is bone dry and doug runs 275/40 18 S03's. I will share a couple fun clips the first one is a short clip of the car stepping out just by stepping on the throttle. The second one is a clip of Doug driving (sliding). I have a longer clip of me in the car that is longer than the first, but my comcast is giving me issues.

On with the files:Sideways 1

Sideways 2

In the first video: Is it just me or does that pedestrian set into a run out of fear for his life? Unfortunately the video cuts short to tell for sure.

I'd run too if I heard something that mean coming down the road.

Wow, when the car hit 4000 rpms it was as if the needle dropped to redline instead of quickly making its way to redline. The rev limiter increase may be a must with this much power and torque otherwise it will take a while to relearn the timing of shift points.

He might have just seen his dealer up the road and wanted to do a buy, knowing the area

Speaking of Comcast. Did they supply the modem? Also, if you have wireless, which do you use and why? I am getting it next week.
BTW, nice Z.
Thanks

That's b/c the rear tires broke loose.

Comcast supplied my modem and I use Netgear products for the router and access point. Works like a charm!

By the way, I didn't see anything sideways. If you mean the little fishtail, doesn't everyone's do that stock? It sounded cool though.

Hard to tell how it sounds really, cause you can just turn the volume up and it gets louder. Sounds nice, is it louder than stock?? Stock definitely has a different tone, though.

Most of the sound is the borla. The Headers and cats just make it louder. I had the windows cracked to let sound in but keep air noise to a minimum. There was a longer clip but my comcast account is ful i guess. BTW, I bought my modem 3 years ago, use 3com wirless router and cards. Comcast is nice but web space sucks.

Tator, You always have to spoil the fun.

Mine does not do that on a straight bone dry street with stock tires. Yes I can do it with some morning dampness or on a curved road. Doug is also running 270/40 18x10 tires/wheels. There is a lot of rubber to break loose.

I just got the car going and hammered it. The car kicked out. I did not use any clutch modulation to do it.

Like I said before I was mainly testing the camera mount to see if it was stable enough. Now I know it is stable enough, we will have to have some fun this weekend.
