RACE VIDS inside: TSS Media Day Shoot

The Texas Speed Syndicate folks had some of the racers come to test at the airport this weekend. The point was to grab some media (photos and vids) for future promotion of the next event in the Spring of 2014. I decided to swap back to my .63 hot sides on my HTA3586's for better/quicker spool and hoped for a higher trap speed. The races are from a 60mph roll and acceleration on Saturday was set at 1450ft. Which happened to be identical to the last event that was held there this spring. Shut down was 1800ft.

Photog Dave Stevens was there. A film crew was there shooting some cool footage as well. I was trapping 170+ in 1400ft.

Here are my pics and vids.

I raced 3 cars.

1. C6 Grandsport Vette with 900rwhp
2. C6 Corvette with a big blower making 1100rwhp
3. Viper on turbos making 1200rwhp

VIDS
1.

2.

3.

Second race with Viper.

awesome!

I love watching your race vids.

Looks like you are still running R888s? But they have a groove cut in them.
what advantage are you gaining with that?

Hey Todd. No, I'm on Toyo TQ drag radials in the rear and Nito NT01 fronts.

I like the taller tires for the events that I participate in. I can get 153mph in 4th gear with these tires.

Great job. Great videos. That viper was getting some crazy wheelspin the first run. I'm going to have to get out to houston to see your car in person some weekend.
