Yeah, I do, but haven't been able to get them uploaded to youtube and all that. I will try to do it soon.
I have vids of every race, but I haven't uploaded them yet. Here are the main two, but the quality sucks. My camera was new, and it records in HD, so they look awesome, but when I uploaded them to Youtube, the quality went out the door, I don't know why. Anyways, here they are:

Here is Groves vs. Urist in the Semi-Finals. Amazing race.

well he went 7.22 @ 207 and was #1 Qualifyer.. just had a tech problem in the finals.. watching the vids that we took on the car the race with Chris and John was super close (door to door) until Chris lost the head gasket around the 1k ft mark.. that was a awsome event this year.. i'm ready for the next one..
why was keenan doing such small/short burnouts especially as it was getting later in the evening and colder on the track? just curious
man looked like john lost the motor at the last race with keenan at the bottom of the track. i think everyone had problems, great video, it shows that those albuquerque boys know how to race.:beer:
he lost a head gasket,theres a picture in the original thread about these races,

I am not sure. He did smaller burnout almost everytime, so I don't think he thought longer ones were going to help. In relation to all the other cars there, ALL the Albuquerque boys did smaller burnouts than almost every car there. Seems like long drawn out burnouts are the thing in Las Vegas.

BTW, Keenan and Groves both ran DRAG RADIALS while Urist ran a SLICK. I have no idea why SLICKS were allowed since the class is Extreme Drag Radial, but they were.


Also, all three cars weren't 100% by the end of the day. Groves lost a head gasket, Keenan had a boost leak on the last two runs that couldn't be tracked down, and Urist did something to his motor it leaked oil everywhere (someone said it was an oil pump issue, but I dont' know). I guess that is the price you pay for doing 10 races in four days including 5 in one day on Sunday. Amazing races though.

I will have videos of all the qualifying runs for Groves and Keenan and Varela (ran wild street, had a rough weekend with breaks) soon. They will be edited together, so that they are one video.
