Great vid...and attitude to go with it.

Pretty funny using just 17" DRs and full weighted car with stiff *** shocks in the back.

Like I mentioned on the other thread what do you weigh like 250lbs...car is probably 3400..can't remember what a Vert weighs (dry).

You should strap that helmet on though.....won't do you any good if you can just pull it off like that.

Fing great video Nick!!!

A vert weighs the same as the coupe, it's about 3 lbs. difference Kevin.

BTW, I thought the same thing regarding the helmet... strap it on Nick!!!

Not trying to tell a man what to do...just lost a few friends over the years racing..mainly on the street though...but I always promote safety first...not matter what I'm doing...got to protect yourself first and foremost.

Nick your video has got me thinking about getting some 17" wagon wheels...I committed to myself to run 18" non DR street radials though...so I got to try them out first. Good job again!
