Racing starts about the 7:00 mark.
He has drag radials on the stock wheels now.

He cleared the code/message and then everything seemed fine.
First run was 7.3 with a lot of wheel spin.
Second run was the failed one.
1/8 mile

Exedy is gonna make a lot of money selling clutches for this car. This car looks like a pain in the ass to drag. Turn this off. Turn this on.

Whats with the hate for him? Bunch of people already got their cars yet not uploading any videos. This dude just took the gt500 to a track with drag radials which is something id like to see. He did nothing wrong with the car if you actually watch the video. And he did what was recommended to him by like 2 other people in the video right before he goes through with it.

I like to disassemble things.
He did expose an important issue we had yet to see. Can't hate him for that.
