lotus exige at santa pod

dont no if i put this in right section first

it was my first time ever on a track, i know its a straight line but i thought i would give it a go. only got 2 runs as the weather was bad on the saturday. but two cars was up against was a 450 bhp vw golf and a metro but no metro engine in that thing lol, it was all sponsored up too.

terminal speed 105mph in 13secs, whihc i feel for my first runs arent too bad i reckon woth practice can easily do 12 secs and little faster too. just thought id share

Drag strips are not my thing, but good effort for having a go.

Did you manage to beat the other cars you went against?

Yea but good fun nevetheless hey :slight_smile:

yeah first run was a golf vw r32 with 450 bhp, and second car was a metro shell but have no idea wot engine, REALLY quick and had sponsers all up the side aswell

I’ve run a 12.5 into a 30mph headwind at pod, I now have another 40hp since then and hope to have the LSD etc so I might have another run again this year, I think high 11’s is possible with 300hp if you take off the rear wing and some weight.

Well done dude!!

I took mine to the strip for the first time last year, was a good laugh, i really enjoyed it.

Sean…

im going to go again in April/May. Theres always someone there with silly power.

Do they have Dayglo cars too :wink:

no mines had a colour change now as you’ll see on the 3rd April. No more Dayglo yellow for me (well its only half painted at the minute)
