Ranger's DVD: 10.85 @ 129.50
Copied from Ranger's web site:
My forthcoming DVD on max acceleration techniques is intended to help owners get the most in a straight line from their traction-limited stick-shift cars on both the street and the drag strip The DVD distills into a digestible form the driving lessons I've accumulated making 570 passes at the drag strip and setting quarter-mile records in three daily-driven Corvettes.
The DVD should provide owners of fast cars a practical, efficient way to quickly learn the techniques for max acceleration. Key ingredients to that process are video, audio, and narrative instruction on all the discrete driving elements. The sights and sounds, including in-car video during drag strip passes, fill in crucial dimensions missing from written postings on the web.
The DVD will give easy access to reliable, proven information to compress the learning curve and supplement seat-time. It will lay a solid foundation for practice, practice, and more practice, using timing-tested techniques. And it will be available for continuing review to work through plateaus in performance.
This audio of my 10.85 129.50 pass was recorded using a microphone duct-taped above the exhaust and connected to a digital recorder inside the cargo compartment.
