jlp's 9.88 video

http://home.comcast.net/~rstaley103435mi/Mov01739.mpg
not the best video but with everyone moving around in the stands i think the wife did a pretty good job. btw that is my truck she was trying to tape also. i blew the tire off and pretty much was just along for the ride and i had the best view in the house. i lifted as soon as i seen the smoke(steam) as i was afraid he threw a rod or something and did not want to run over anything. johnny did get outta shape when he stepped on the brakes from all the coolant. so he was fortunate enoughto save it from going to the wall.

Damn

Johnny came out of the hole like a bat outta hell! That was an awesome run. Congrats to Johnny on being the first into the 9-second club with a Gen II!!

Blowing a head gasket is a small price to pay for 9s, baby!!

I hear a sound in the video that occurs 3 times when John leaves the line. It sounds like a maraca being shaked 3 times. Anybody have any ideas?

That run would make any other Lightning look "slow" even if the other L stayed on the gas the whole way.
