We had 6 runs, the first of which was a DNF. I only got that and my 2nd run (my slowest by far) on video because of mind blowing horrible battery life on my new GoPro.
Looks smooth, like the low angle.

What RPM did you launch? It sounded like it bogged for a moment. Is there an optimum launch RPM for the FA-20? My previous limited launch tests with Toyota VVT-i on a 2JZ IS300 5M/T showed a lower RPM (2,500 or so) produced better times than a wheel spinning start. Apples and oranges, but might be similar.
