This is my first attempt at making a video. Question for the experienced video guys. Is there a way to eliminate the glare from the windshield? The day I took this it wasn't particularly sunny.

There are filters you can put on the lens... I'm
not a video guy but my wife is pretty decent.. some
times you can find the answer and parts(if needed) at
Best Buy in their video/camera area.. some have very
good people... some dont

Thanks for the kind words guys.After watching the video,I decided to finally fix that thing. Its only been doing it for about 15yrs. LOL Its an easy fix too. Just take the mirror off,there's a plate that goes against the ball of the mirror stand. Put it in the vise and flatten it out slightly. That will tighten er up.

Great video. What camera are you using?

I recorded one as well, with a GoPro, but the car was running hot and my shifting was not so good so I didn't post it LOL. Seeing yours makes me realize I should really clean up my dash....... You have one VERY nice car!

Its called a WASP. Its more user friendly(less tech) than a go pro.It cheaper and has Led for night usage.

Very cool! I was looking at the Wasp cameras on Mancini's site the other day. I'll never forget standing on the starting line in Pittsburgh in 2004 and watching you drag the back bumper when you launched! Then I runner-upped in Pro that night, great weekend!

Well Gary, I wore out the purple firesuit, and replaced it with the blue Simpson. As far as the wheelstand off the line,that was supposed to happen,but unfortunately the track decided to put 200ft of new concrete on the starting with a believe it or not brush finish instead of a smooth finish. Everyone was pulling the rubber of the surface. None of us were able to hook. Then it rained after one pass. Last I heard they thinking of renting a diamond buffer to smooth it out.

Overreving a little @ the end. Mine does that even after the 4.88/4.56 change.


Yeah, it's got a smallblock.
