I tracked my supercharged SHO this past Friday and have a few videos from it. This video is filmed from the stands, but I will have some in-car and out-of-car mounted videos hosted soon. I won't be doing this stuff with my Civic though :-) Keep in mind I am on street tires in this video with my best lap time being a 1:22 (which is extremely good for a SHO on this track on street tires).

I don't think anyone's hating on ya dude, but 62 megabytes is a freaking huge file to download. Maybe break it up a little into smaller pieces and then you'll probably get some better feedback. And oh yeah, welcome to HCF. Hopefully we'll get that 02 leaving the Taurus in the dust.

I'll post in-car and out-of-car mounted video (via sticky pod) when I get home tomorrow.

On the current video, I got a best time of 1:22 - 1:23 on street tires. That's and extremely good time for that car on that track. On the front and back straights, I hit over 100mph, my stock SHO was around 80mph on the same straights and I think my best lap time was 1:32 (I have in-car video of that as well, already hosted).

I don't feel like anyone is 'hating'... I like higher quality videos. I can shrink them, but then the quality suffers. As far as the 02 leaving the SHO... Not likely. I spun a rod bearing at the track so I'm building a low compression motor and upping the boost. 650hp is in my sights :-) Besides, I'm buying the Civic so I have a car I don't have to work on as a daily driver.
