Wow that looks immense! Watched the video where you smoked that M5. Bet it was a very fun day. You're on stage 3 now? What sort of Bhp are we talking about now?Another drag race under the belt, this time at Bishopscourt Airfield for Drag Racing Irelands "One Very Last Blast"
I hadn't been to BC since my Uni days, probably 2003, those cold nights of illegal drag racing lol brought back good memories!
Anyway, I hadn't done a single thing to my car since the Straightliner event last month at Enniskillen so yesterday was just for a bit of fun, no prep, just go out and race
TBH not as smoothly ran as Straighliners but they found their groove and you were racing quick enough after each attempt.
All in, I raced 8 times and the S3 never skipped a beat, results as follows:
1. S3 (12.122S) vs MR2 (13.621)
2. S3 (12.081) vs Civic (17.230)
3. S3 (12.061) vs Supra TT (13.534)
4. S3 (12.230) vs EK9 Civic Type R
5. S3 (12.300) vs Volvo 240 (sleeper?) (15.137)
6. S3 (12.291) vs F10 M5 600+ bhp from Enniskillen (12.732)
At this stage I found out that I had qualified with the 4th fastest time of the day and into a knock out stage. These races were based on who crosses the line first. In the semi final I was against a red R35 GTR JM1200R with approx. 1000bhp
He hadn't been doing well all day and was struggling with grip. He put down a 10.8s earlier in the day. He was slow off the line and I just pipped it by a smidge, even though he recorded a faster time
7. S3 (12.241) vs GTR JM1200R (11.938)
That got me into the final against a friend of mine who I told about the drag race lol he arrived just before the knock out stages for 1 run and recorded a low 11 which put him into second. He beat OMA?? Scooby in his semi final and was put against me in the final.
I had no hope but was a fantastic experience and has me hooked for the next event!
8: S3 (12.042 - my fastest of the day) vs 991 911 Turbo S (10.820)
What a day.
