2012 Hot Ones runs 'record' 1/4mi time!
That's right folks...it still buy "old school" HW performance today!

There's a few long time hangers at the local Wal-Mart, looks like I'm gonna have to go pick one up!
What kind of track is that? Its like its skating down an ice covered track at times when it goes at an angle and doesnt lose any speed at all.
Also worth mentioning here, if you watch the 1st run closely(slow-mo) you'll see how the GT Racer doesn't really get a clean run while setting the 2nd place time. The entire car oscillated from side-to-side throughout the run. DCR's single-lane black track appears to be slightly wider than std. orange track and exposes poorly tracking cars pretty well. I've watched a fair amount of DCR grudge videos and cars that oscillate heavily normally don't win races, let alone set records.

I'm not sure what type of track DCR uses but I know that the coarse is electronically timed on a scale 1/4mi. As far as I know, the track is not @ a constant angle...it does flatten out briefly before the catch box. Perhaps the camera angle is deceiving?
And to be honest, I admire DCR for their real vintage metal on the track every now & then.

It reminds me of when Funny cars lose traction and the drivers have to "peddle" the car down the track.
Yup, this car is definitely a quick one!
