I agree. The vid was awesome, but the wing isn't of my tastes IMO. But to each his own I guess.

Again, awesome vid.

Damn. Makes me want to get my car finished up for a little video.

Go to the strip and get some race footage. Or challenge a supra to race on the street, that would be classy.

Your wing really doesn't look that bad, its a tad aggressive but so is the rest of your car (wheels, body kit etc.) I personally think the only wing to go with besides stock is the feed rear wing. That is the best made and the most expensive, however. I love the interior, that is the ******* bomb diggidy ill ****.

nice vid but I got a couple of comments on your car/video. First off, I'm not feeling the painted red door handles, perhaps if they were red kevlar/carbon, then it would have been ok but idk... I'm also dont really like the yellow dash guages but to each, their own...

Secondly, why the backwards hat? Idk, I guess I just don't wear hats cuz I'm not feeling that either.

Next, who was hanging out of the car to get those wheel shots (don't get me wrong, those were nice but I gotta wonder if you made your girl do it, if so, she is pretty damn hardcore hehe). BTW: Having a girl in the passenger seat while filming was good and not having her whine a lot like the other guys vid a while back is a huge plus!!!

Could have had more stunt/drift stuff in there and the doughnuts/burnouts should have been a bit longer (whats with the 270degree doughnut/turn, I'm not sure if that is considered a doughnut...)

The end part could have been a bit better, perhaps you should have ended doing a top end/speed run or something (I'm talking about the part where you get about and say "Yeah")

Lastly, what types of guages do you got on the A-pillar? I know one is a A/F ratio guage (which you should really not be using to tune!). I would think you should have a water temp gauge+Boost guage minimum on the A-pillar but that's just me.

Hey, I am the other person who played a part in putting together that video. First I wanted to say thanks for all of the good comments. I am actually putting together a full length video and all of the high speed/ drifting clips will probably be scattered throughout the rest of the video.

now to answer some of yoru questions....

The name of the song is "blinded" by HANNAH

The reason for the 270' spins was brads fuel pump was dying and the car would stall out after 270'. Thats the reason I have the clip of him in the end, kinda as a joke to brad.

Yes that is the philly art museum in the background. Some of the shots are from the city, and some are from an industrial park behind my house in the northeast.

The video was made using iMovie for mac's for simplicity purposes. I will probably make the complete video using final cut pro, but this one was done on iMovie. I used a Digital Video recorder and then imported it.

I know brad plans on ditching the spoiler, but at the same time he is getting the holes filled and smoothed, so it is a longer process for the future. And until the funds are there, so is the spoiler.

Well I hope this answers some of your questions. And if any one else is in the tri state area and would like to be a part of my movie, let me know. I would really like to get a good number of quality cars in it.

This is the point in a thread where all disputes are laid to rest. An authority speaks at last.

You edited a very nice video that didn't look slapped together like some. Very proper.

I would imagine it takes a while to remove a spoiler that big. Tell him to look into the Feed spoiler.

Skunks, I don't mean to slight you but you are being a little too **** on picking this one apart. I like the complete objective approach you take but the dude's car is ******* tight. Who cares if his hat is backwards, you sound like your 50 years old or what-not. The painted door handles add a pretty unique flair rarely seen. Those carbon/kevlar handles are just overused and seem more like what "every one else is doing". The yellow dash was very well done and he probably is not tuning his own car anyway. If he is, it’s pretty evident you can't do it on the stock O2 sensor.

Sorry Skunks, a cynic needs a cynic to reply sometimes. Can't let your comments go by without putting them in an objective light.

Nice video work. I just bought an audigy 2 PRO card today... I will make some fresh car and motorcycle vids too.

PS: when are you going to get the rest of the car painted to match your front clip... I'm in the same boat because a very minor paint touch up job turned into painting my front clip and you can see the color change at the front edge of the f doors. I want my insurance co to take back the money for the job untill it's done correctly.
