Good vids. I thought your lines look good, along with throttle application and load control Just raise the intensity. You'll never regret taking small steps and not crashing.

The sound does remind of my transmission as it was failing, or when my car was supercharged, or even my jeep with it's knobby mud tires. Is it gear whine? I hope not.

Wow, awesome videos man. Thanks for the youtube upload!

Looks like you were taking good lines, and your car looks pretty fast. Well done.

It's called not setting up the backlash properly. It's too loose or too tight. Either will cause excessive wear and ultimately failure. Fix it.
