Quite frankly, I'm unimpressed seeing as how that video isn't really conclusive. HEY LETS SPECULATE SINCE WE'RE OVER 1/4 MILE AWAY AND CAN'T SEE SHIT.
Well I guess there's always one of these types in any thread, but I'll reply anyway.
I am the driver/owner of the camera car. As noted, it's plenty fast, but like most of our cars it won't keep up with a GT47-80 Supra on high boost. Furthermore, I wasn't exactly wanting to stay too close, as my car was being covered with hot BFG drag radials from these races. Listen to the clicking sound in the 2nd highway pull...that's smoking rubber hitting my windshield.
For the same reason I wasn't starting directly behind these guys on the dig race.
The Supra won all 3 races, including the dig race even though they lost the launch by 2 cars on low boost before hitting the boost controller.
