this gets the blood pumping

I was more impressed by the other cars driving on by while he had his wheels up.

that first shot is nice, stands it on the rear bumper while he blows the motor, front end lands in the chunks. too much money, not enough something or another.....

Great vidio,Gotta love that crazy stuff :D If he has the money to play like that more power to him! ;)

Yowzaaa! Now that was kewl. :eek:

HELL YEA!!!! graemlins/thumbsup.gif

Nick,
I think most of his huge wheelstands took place during a wheelstand competition.

Here's a pretty cool, little more down to earth video....which happens to be a perfect example of what can be accomplished with some good chassis and motor tuning:

Coffey's Camaro (http://www.coffeyracing.com/media/georgec.wmv)

THIS VIDEO IS A PERFECT EXAMPLE OF WHAT I CONTINUE TO COMPLAIN ABOUT!!!!!!!!!! WHY, WHY, WHY DO THEY (whoever makes these videos) CONTINUE TO POLUTE VIDEOS OF MACHINERY, PARTICULARLY PERFORMANCE TYPE MACHINERY, WITH ALL THAT CRAPPIN', BS MUSIC?????????????? I DON'T WANT TO HEAR THAT CRAP MUSIC, I WANT TO HEAR THE CARS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! DANG THOSE IDIOTS!!!!!!!
For this exact reason, I have almost completely stopped looking at ANY videos any more!

Nickel,
I can't get your video open.

....music nazi :rolleyes:


seriously, though. you need to chill out, and let your blood pressure go down, cause i can picture you about to burst a vesssel. if that's the thing that you "continue" to complain about, i'd consider yourself a fortunate individual. either that, or so closed minded that you can't appreciate the visual imact of overpowered detroit iron when there's music set to it. geez, turn the volume off if it's so horrible to thine ears! personally, i think it's a great song, and very appropriate to the video. very well done, imo. smile.gif


;) maybe i should rant about all the uncreative @$$#*!&$ that simply plaster up a video of their car with the grainy, clipping, cruddy, listening-through-a-tin-can-with-a-string, lo-fi sound of their engines. ......or maybe i would consider that a waste of bandwidth.

tom, the key to life is to have a good sense of humor about everything, and don't sweat the small stuff. :cool:

impressed. I wanna see More graemlins/beers.gif graemlins/hurray.gif

I love this video...it was posted earlier somewhere else on this website but who cares...

Hoobastank isnt a bad band....But I would have rather heard the engine. But I am not trying to be the 2nd Music Nazi.

If you got the money, and you got the toy, do what you want graemlins/thumbsup.gif I know if I had the same amount of money and vehicle and everything...you couldnt keep me on 4 wheels graemlins/beers.gif

hey nick arent you one of the guy who was raggin on me cause i posted about the import a while back

Sure I would have rather heard the car, but I also like Hoobastank graemlins/thumbsup.gif

It's that friggin C rap music that I can't stand.Oh excuse me I meant R&B graemlins/sad.gif

Give them long hair, leather, and jeans.They are known as rockers, troublemakers,and degenerates.

Give them large gold chains, some gold teeth,and a bad attitude.Then let them not sing but talk shyt about different stuff and make it rhyme.They take someone elses music throw in another beat with it or slightly change it and suddenly they are "Artists" :rolleyes: graemlins/clonk.gif graemlins/angry.gif

COOL. I think I would schit my pants driving that car. :eek:

well said thrasher......seems you and I have a common hatred for false music. HEAVY METAL all the way!!! \m/ \m/

was it me or did he bring the wheels off the ground on the 1/2 shift about 3/4 through the video.
he got big somethin's.
i'm afraid i wouldnt be able to see were i was goin

Reminds me of my 73'Camaro drag car! Yeah I wish! Wow what a ride huh?! goDragRacing.com is a blast and they have some great videos but of coarse I love TeamChevelle above all others dudes! Gettin itchy to run my car in test and tune April 4!
Live to race, but keep it safe-on the track! Cheers! :D

Nickel,
I'm at work now and opened it.
CRAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It's just as bad as that other video with all that BS music. It just ABSOLUTELY RUINS the whole video!!!

Good ol Mike Weisberger. He runs our local OPS circuit. That car is also driven on the street quite a bit from what I've been told. It's a blown injected big block. Sucker has that mean injector surge at idle...bad car, no doubt.

I resemble that statement smile.gif If I thought more people felt that way I wouldn't go to the trouble (and yes it's a pain in the a$$ when using a capture card rather than P&P firewire, etc...) to convert these videos and post them.

However, someone must enjoy wathching them as I had ~2,300 hits during the first three days with the two most recent videos I've posted (verified using mindpspring's Urchin visitor reporting system). I check these stats from time to time to make sure people are looking/want to look at the stuff I'm posting. ;)

Here's a link to some guys who can carry the wheels all the way, side by side...

no worries, kjett. that statement was more for the purpose of illustrating the complete opposite end of the spectrum from tom's post. playing devil's advocate, if you will, trying to make a point, and get some people to lighten up.

If we are complaining about the content or editing quality of these videos, I'm sure that we are all capable of using the tools we have (video camera and computer) to create and edit our own videos. Then you can put whatever music or none if that's your choice. I make videos all the time and I never dub over horsepower!!!
