    Passing a supercharged Cobra (and some other things) at the track in my Protege

    Just a quick clip of me passing a few cars at New Hampshire Motor Speedway this past Monday. I get by a Mustang Cobra, an E36 M3, and a Jaguar E-type.

    Considering that I had a blown wheel bearing and a busted strut--and considering that I had to get push-started all day because my starter failed--I'm pretty pleased with these laps.

    I added a little music to this clip. Normally I'd just leave the raw audio, but after I made the clip I noticed that it was exactly as long as the song from the Porsche scene in SuperTroopers. I couldn't resist.

              "There's a hierarchy of insanity in motor sports. Normal people think all racers are crazy. Folks who race sedans think people in open-wheel cars are nuts. People who race cars of any kind think motorcycle racers are absolutely off theirs meds. But there's one group that everyone agrees is made up of the most extreme, the most daring, and absolutely craziest people in racing - rally racers."

                  I've decided that my car is a girl, she's picky as hell, won't listen to me, always wants to fight me, and when i give her presents it's never good enough and she always wants more.

                      Heh, the Cobra was definitely taking it easy. Even with just a little effort that car should blow me out of the water.

                      It's a short clip of me getting passed by a 460whp RX7 with an LS3 swap.

                          song is: Bubbles - Bidibodi Bidibu

                          great song to drive fast to.
                          No car! I soldz it. Now I have a truck. I like it, but apparently it has a hard time keeping up with a slightly modified 4WD protege with half the hp. Neat.
