I shot these at SCSN9 in November but just got around to uploading them.
The comment made at the end of the last clip pretty much sums it up for me.
Mike Murillo 6.39 @ 214
Roger Holder 6.56 @ 231
Rick Snavely 6.69 @ 210 (S197 Mustang)
Mark Lutton 6.85 @ 211 (S197 Mustang)

I tried to be a little creative this time and actually put some effort into this video. I was going to add music, but then I really like how the car sounds in a lot of the clips--all the music would have done is mask that.
Anyway:

Last weekend at the Famoso TNT I was getting ready for the SCSN9 coming up in Vegas 11/14-11/17.
Anyway I refined the N20 tune a bit, leaned it out some and backed off the timing, and got a new best of 8.579 @ 158.78 mph. Previous best was a 8.71, so it responded pretty good so far...
I love the Benelli M4, with the Eotech it was easy hitting 32 oz bottles at 50 yards. Had some fun with Watermelon and some steel 5 gallon drums filled with water. The gun video clips were filled at 120 fps, the watermelon destruction was filmed at 240 fps. The Go Pro Hero 3 does a pretty...
I sure as hell would for fear of this:
Seeing how its tornando season, I bet your car would be FUBAR after this. This was actually in Arizona a couple years ago.

Here is a video I made of it, first time out, just starting really at 400 and 430 yards. I really like this gun, it was very fun to shoot. With more practice I am hoping to get to 1,000 yards soon.

These pictures were actually taken last summer. Glad it finally made it. Here is the article, I scanned it best I could and merged the pages. Also some photos I can finally post, photos taken by Drew Phillips, the best photographer I know. Pictures came out great.
Going for 8.60s at...
Got some cool footage from the track this weekend. Put the Go Pro on a tripod and filmed a couple of burnouts at 120 fps, and also an interior shot showing the tach. Used the open back plate to the case so the sound came out awesome. Play at 480p.

Tried out my brand new Eotech on my Benelli M4 today, once I got the elevation and windage adjusted it was very nice to shoot with. I shot 50/125/200 yards with Remington 3 inch 7/8 oz slugs.
I am going to have to choose one ammo from here on out--as I had the exact same thing but different...
Went testing yesterday at Famoso. First race was against a Mercedes that ran a 10.01 @ 139 mph! I wasn't expecting that--that was pretty stout.
Anyway I am working through the N20 tune, should be in the 8.60s next time out. Shot some launches with the go pro at 720hd @ 120 fps. Here is...
Here is a quick video I made of the 5 second passes at the Las Vegas Street Car Super Nationals that happened on Saturday.
These are pro mod cars, very fun to watch. I did this with my new camcorder, sound actually came out pretty good---I was worried with how loud they are the sound would...
I had a great weekend of racing, ran a new best of 9.168 @ 149.65 mph, all motor. While I don't have a mod motor, I thought this vid is pretty cool as my rear facing camera shows the difference between a mid 10 sec car and a low 9 second car. People that don't know much about drag racing think...
I tried a different spot for the go-pro, right at the windshield in front of where I sit. Here are a couple pics of the car / engine. Car runs 9.40s on motor only.
Here's the vid. I took the solid door off of the go-pro so the sound turned out better also. I will be spraying next...
Really happy with how it turned out. This is my intake---the pictures were taken in some kind of photo booth or something. In any case its a single stage fogger set up that I will be running. Going to work all weekend to put as much of it together as I can. I also got the dual bottle...
I went to a private track day at CA Dragway, Fontana, on Friday 1/20. The track allowed me to stand right by the track at the 1000 foot mark after I signed a waiver. I think the videos came out pretty good as its a perspective I normally don't video. There is some background noise I am not...
Below are the slips and a video of the passes. I ran a 9.417 @ 143 mph and backed it up with a 9.43 last Saturday at Famoso (Bakersfield, CA). DA was 1800, with temps in the low to mid 70s and great conditions.
My best 1/8th was a 6.017 @ 116.07 mph. Just missed getting into the 5s...
All motor 572 cid 924 engine horsepower BBF Mustang (mine) vs my friends 323 cid 3V mustang with a 2.8 Mammoth Kenne Bell @ 22 psi - 850 rwhp.
Got some great footage from the GO PRO cameras and the camcorder in the stands at half track.

I went to Irwindale last night to shoot some video. Greg's twin turbo mustang, Adam's 2011 5.0 with a 3.6 liquid cooled Kenne Bell and Kens 3800 lb S197 with a Kenne Bell 2.8 Mammoth running 22 psi and 850 rwhp.
I am not sure of the exact rwhp #s of the other cars. The 2011 does have forged...
Sometimes being a good driver is simply knowing when to lift to avoid taking your car back home on a flatbed trailer.
Here is a video I made where I just barely got out of the groove at the 60' mark and the car gets a little sideways before I lift. Thankfully as soon as I lifted the car...
Put this video together for a friend of mine. 2011 GT 5.0 with a 3.6LC Kenne Bell @ only 14 psi, pump gas, everything stock but does have an aftermarket converter, M/T drag radials, and a roll bar. Stock heads and cams, stock 3.15 gears, full weight. Drove directly to the lanes after each...
Got the M/T 10.5W's on, they are a big tire. Should have absolutely no problem hooking at the track now! 9.30s here I come! I also got my official NHRA number. Ordered some custom decals in silver and black (instead of the plan white) to match the rest of the car. Here are some pictures...
Even though I have had the car together and running for a couple months now, I have been just trying to dial it in at a nearby 1/8th mile track. Last thursday I found out why I was having trouble with my 60' times, the passenger side relocation bracket for the lower control arm was moving /...
I went to Irwindale yesterday --- Mark and I were to do some passes. Long story short I had problems, broke a stud off of the throttle cable, but Mark had some awesome runs. Had a best 5.65 @ 132.66 mph, which in the 1/4 would be high 8.6Xs @ 162+mph. He almost lost the car on the last pass...
Newbie here to this site, but not to mustangs. I live in Valencia, CA and have had a 1967 Mustang FB with a 390, then a 428, then I had a 1997 GT, then a 2005 GT, and now a 2006 GT. I have known this site for a long time, but for whatever reason have not signed up until now.
The 2006...
