Talking Video's @ Cecil: My Trans Am vs. Camaro SS & BMW 745

So all my prior cars that I have tracked have been auto's. Easy as heck to do a burnout in them of course. Different story in a manual I found out. I can do burnouts fine away from the track, but it seems the traction at the track kills me with doing burnouts there. I'll just try sitting in the water box next time I guess? This was down at Cecil County Dragway in Rising Sun, MD on Friday. I've never seen so few cars there in my life. It was like we rented out the track. You could basically run as many times as you wanted to. Temps in the high 80's with 55%+ humidity and threat of t-storms kept people away. My alternator decided to go so I was running on battery power for most of the runs.

I ran everything from an LS1 powered AMX (running 12.0's all night long), to a BMW, 1st Gen Camaro SS, 5th Gen Camaro SS, and more.

This is my buddy/co-worker's 5th Gen SS with my TA behind it (Crappy cell shot):


First race is against a 2nd Gen Camaro Z28 (I ran a 13.6@105 and the Z ran a 14.0@101):

2nd race is against a late 2010-ish BMW 745 (I ran a 13.8@105 and he ran a 15.2@94):

More vids to come when I feel like uploading 'em

Edit: Exterior video with my buddies iPhone of my co-worker/friend in his 5th Gen Camaro SS racing me. Beat me by .022 seconds:
