Where are all the vids of first gens doing burn outs and racing????

I look all over the internet and in the other forums and find tons of media with every other type of diesel out there but only a couple of first gens. And the few vids of first gens I find, most are just bragging about how much black smoke it will puke out. Smoke is only cool when its mixxed with tire smoke or fast accereration.

Also, anyone know off the top of there head what the fastest manual first gen is? Tomorrow night I will start my hunt for 13.5's at LonestarRaceway.
