    The only problem i have found in using my Dragy on my '70 Pinto station wagon is it doesn't record in minutes?

    My local drag strip ( Atco Dragway, NJ) has now DOUBLED their T&T rates from just 2 years ago which is the last time I raced there. It's now an absurd $50 to race! So, tomorrow I'll be ordering a Dragy from Amazon. Been drag racing ( mostly) at Atco since 1977, but no more, Now, Dragy takes over! $147 delivered. I figured with gas, tolls, food and racing fee, that costs me approx. $80 each outing. Can't wait to use this "magical" device. Good vid.

    I am finally convinced , I have watched a bunch of videos and you were the most thorough and really made the product sound worth buying . I live in the country on a highway where I can test my car , it is legal and registered, insured etc but it more of a drag toy . I have a ton of changes to make and hate having to taow the car to the track for each thing I change to see results . Even if DRAGY was off a bit , it should be relative when testing at the same spot in the same car , so swapping the car to methanol , from race gas should show improvements or losses etc . I also want to try a tunnel ram that I have here , vs a single carb , shorter tires etc ., I am excited to get the Dragy deal now . I dont know squat about phones so I hope it's easy ? I have an I Phone 8+ , never used bluetooth but assume my phone wont have any hassles ? I do need to get a phone mount now .

Tho I'm wondering how much more you get out of that, compared to something nearly free like RaceTimers or something for your phone? Phones got pretty good GPS signals these days and are pretty accurate as well, so other than nice looking video you get from Dragy, I don't know if it actually offers anything else. Then again, that video feature is pretty nice... but worth 150 bucks? Ah, why the hell not :D

    the law, that’s your business, but you most likely have young people watching and subscribed to your channel that are influenced by what you say and do. As an influencer, you should do better, be better. I enjoy your watching your channel, but the overall message of the video bothered me.
