Z&I

I think your gas pedal *clicker* may be screwing up your *wheel hop actuator*

Interesting to see your sister in shorts or perhaps a skirt , its pretty strict here for RWYB's my local track insist on covered legs and arms and you must wear a helmet , they even scrutineer the vehicles before they go on track.

My 1/8th was 9.32@80.65 mph also , best 60ft was 2.44 but most were 2.5

Opening myself to ridicule here but here are my vids taken from my Blackvue, you can see I varied my technique each run but nothing made much difference

In my defence I spent 15 years drag racing and building bikes , running cars down the strip is not my forte I'm more used to slicks and wheelie bars and 1.2 60ft s

that track is relaxed compared to most. their rule on helmets is anythings below 12.999 i think. most places it's 13.999 or faster is required to have a helmet. that track is in ohio i know that might not mean anything since i see you're in the UK lol oddly around my area i never broke into the 12's. i got my 12.899 down at capitol raceway in maryland. that track seems less prepped and maintained then the others up here but dont care lol ran my best there and the oddly when re-watching old top gear UK episodes they raced there on a US special.

We only have two drag strips in the UK that are regularly used at least, both are converted airstrips the one I visited is Shakespeare County Raceway which is close to Shakespeare's birthplace of Stratford upon Avon and Santa Pod Raceway a former WW2 USAAF base , both are in the middle of England.

Santa Pod is prepared to a much higher standard and larger events are run there with Top Fuel Dragsters etc and it is built to NHRA specifications and the track is better prepared. Unfortunately it does tend to be much busier on RWYB days and you have to queue for about 1 hour to run the car

sucks that your options are limited over there track wise. i have one in either direction of me about 45 min drive to each. one west just into ohio and the other just to the east. plus theres a bunch of tracks around within reasonable driving distance.

the one where that vid was filmed is quaker city raceway

Quaker City Motorsports Park

then the other which i did importfaceoff at last year (took 2nd) is the one to the east of me. its called PRP
