OCUK RWYB Drag Meet 1 (Of 2018) - Saturday 21st April 2018 - Santa Pod Raceway

I checked over all the videos that were taken.
Quite a few vids, captured virtually everything including most PBs.
I'll be uploading this week and will post as when I can.
Unfortunately they are not up to the standard of kostas. But they are ok to watch :)

Hope you got my PB, a guy on Insta posted up my run against the 680HP Mercedes which Kosta tagged me in. :D

My 1.69sec 60ft run :)

Watching it I can see where I went wrong and why it wasn't closer to my 12.4 PB in this car, despite being the best 60ft I've ran in this car (just!)

Who needs a DSG gearbox when you got a Kosta doing the shifts. :D
Gotta be one of the best in car drag video's I've ever watched, really nice touch with all the statistics coming up as you run. That Ryzen rig was well worth it! :D


P.S. Next time you need install your cams for me on a run and then make me a video like that. :p

Ryzen powaaa !

I've done it on a couple of my videos now, feel like it adds a little something :)

Happy to do it for anyone else as well - next Pod meet I may not run and just video everyone properly.
 
Lee messaged me yesterday saying he'd started playing his videos them to upload them, so I'm sure he'll get some done soon :)

I've only got the videos from inside my car unfortunately !
 
Yep starting to upload now guys.

They are not the usual quality of Kostas youtube vids, as i am a mere novice with youtube uploading. But i will get better as time goes by :)
 
Ha, that was my first run where I wasn't paying attention to the lights and then burned a little bit of clutch when I noticed and panicked... :D
 
Good videos nice to see the gantry times off other cars.

So I'm a second slower then a M3 on that run. They run around 13.9. My car wasn't 100% either. At least I knocked 0.2 second on my last run. I'll be back once it's all sorted. Good baseline for me.

@Acme your induction sounds very loud lol.

First time I've seen an E36 M3 run. I know E46 hover around 13.5@105 and so do the V8 E92 manuals also around 13.3@106, the DCT's are quicker, normally a high 12 or low 13 around 110. For comparison my E46 M3 last year ran a 12.9@111mph at Santa Pod which for an SMG is very impressive as manuals normally do better as easier to launch than SMG.

Yeah Im not sure if it was an evo version but it was the 321ps so 317bhp? Did go quite well and sounded brilliant. I reckon shifting to 5th early for me may help as I'd be right in the band for the huge wave of torque. As towards the end of 1/4 i was at around 6krpm in 4th and you could feel the power dying then.

Better of shifting at the limiter.

While you might be making more flywheel torque by shifting to fifth it's almost a guarantee that'll you be making less wheel torque once the gearbox and diff multiplication are taken into account
 
What was that next to acme an SUV?

Also not bad for a Jag gibbo, though expected it to be louder? :p

Just spotted there was an Audi SUV on your run
