one small note a little before 4 min, you said you ran the NOS over the oil filter, when you ran it over the ATF gauge... (small mistake doubt your teacher will notice)

Great to watch, the civic race was cool. I know you are "not a ricer" but the neons... COME ON! Neons are never classy.

sorry no chicks, my girlfriend gets bored when i open my mouth to even mention cars! so no "chicks" were around...lol although i did get her to my last drag race. anways i was proud!
yeah for the project i got an A, probably because i did more work than anyone else ever has done on their senior projects and also because i documented everything thoroughly and also because nobody knows about cars but me and a few friends (those who helped) at school. lol
yeah i hope more people would document/video tape the work they do on their cars. b/c usually all u see of the porsches are of them driving around yanno? i think this video was cool and fun to make because u go in depth with the car. thanks
the civic race was ALMOST cool, actually on that run i did NOT use nos for the sake of a before and after, and i was wanting to hit it soooo bad because i had an awesome start, but he slowly caught up to me and then actually won the race!!! sad but true........ and about the neons, i know, lame, but i did all the install myself and had a good time working around the car that way. it was just somethign to do. besides i cant use them on the road anyways, i only had them on for a race or two b/c my friends wanted me to, and also none of the neons are noticable when not on so the car looks completly normal. but i do like to turn them all on at night and take a look, it does look cool and i know that you'd enjoy them as well! anyways thanks

nice job with the work on the car and the documentation. Its very helpful to see the work done that way - its giving me thoughts of video taping the work I'll be doing when my car comes back from paint.
congratulations on the A grade - you're proving that it's always better to set your expectations higher the your instructor's.
great job.

well if i ever get back on recoding this site, that would be one application I wouldn't mind adding on - video libraries are nice.
btw - what ever you avatar image is, e-mail it to me and i'll throw it on lirdies.com/924 so you can stop advertising tripod.
