WOW, awesome job Alex.

The finish of the last run was amazing. I was watching the in car camera from your car and I was thinking to myself that there was no way you were going to catch up to Claus before the finish line. Of course, not only did you catch him but you beat him by a considerable margin.

I think it was all of my cheering into my TV that gave you the extra power. HAHA

Thanks for an entertaining show!!!

Thanks for your compliment... I forgot to turn off the PSM when I launched against Claus and she fell flat on her face..lol...(Some driver I am) I turned it off and chased him down by the first turn... Thanks again for your cheering support =)

I will try to post the episode and get you a link...if not, I can burn you a DVD and send it off..

I was hoping you'd say that. Can you pm me a time and date? I'd love to see those ridiculous passes!!!

Thanks for all your compliments and support guys...I think it was a good representation of a 'Street racing' scene...I have attended my share of street races and they are similar in lighting and tarmac...it wasn't suppose to be a track.... Originally SPEED wanted to shut down part of the San Pedro docs and film it there...and then there was talk of shutting down downtown LA for the shoot. The Network finally decided on this location. The entire night set with poor visibility was to set the entire 'Street race' scene and It was done well... You have to be awake and know your car well to play in this setup...

Here are some video's that Elliot took of the event...behind the scenes stuff =)
He also got my race against the 1000hp twin turbo Ford GT (which according to the driver runs mid nine's at 152mph) and my final race against CEC's 997

-enjoy =)

Bone stock! I love it! Alex how'd you get in without releasing any information on your car?

VRAlexander

I stuck to the rules which said:
1) It must have current registration
2) It must be insured
3) You must drive the car to the event

It meets all the above criteria...and then some. The A/C works, the ABS and PSM work and it even has a working sunroof, spoiler and stereo... its stock... 'VRAlexander' stock ;-)

Thanks again for your compliment..

I thought I saw somewhere your 996tt has 1000hp. True??
