Arrow Carrera GT on the dyno...
thanks to Atomic80 for filming. (and yes, I stalled pulling on the dyno and my shifts were off while doing the pulls)

I should point out that at one point when I was filming the CGT from behind, it got so loud that I fell backwards but managed to get up. Ben, you have one crazy CGT! Simply amazing.

That car is nasty.

I wouldn't feel too embarrassed about stalling it. I've heard from many people that that car is picky as hell to drive with its clutch engagement.

mr2guysingh is an unknown quantity at this point
I remember when Jin started your car, it was so loud it scared the shit out of me.

Ben pointed out that he would rather stall the car than ride the clutch.

It seems like you did both pulls in 3rd. Any particular reason for that?

Gotcha. I thought I only heard two shifts, must have been mistaken.
