I hate to be the one to say it, but this will probably get locked, read the forum rules. No street racing/speeding related videos are allowed.
Sorry

Well, all runs were to the posted speed limit... well 5 over to be accurate. There was certainly no racing involved.

Yea, but its not a hard drop... its a lot of clutch action... thats where the 60' time really is made or broken with this car. You need decent RPMs to stay in the power, and you gotta work the clutch and gas to keep it singing, but not spinning/hopping. It not really easy to see in the video, but there was some hopping on that last launch, and on the 1-2 shift. Pole roll resistors, here I come!

Like I said, clutch action, not clutch dropping. Theres a big difference there.

Sorry man, you are infact breaking the rules. I know you aren't really breaking the speed limit, however, you are trying to film the speedo/tach and drive... that generally isn't allowed.
Rule #14: Posting pictures or videos of any tach/speedometer at highly illegal speeds is not allowed. That is way too dangerous and just encourages similar behavior. It does not matter if it was taken at a track or any other place where such speeds are "safe", there is no way to tell that it was not taken elsewhere. Similarly, posting about your high-speed escapades on public roads is forbidden.
The car does sound good though.
