Hello together,

this week was my Vectra finished and yesterday was already first 1/4-mile runs. I am very content. My time was 12.685 seconds with 175km/h. 60 feet time was 1.798 seconds, 1/8-mile time was 8.176 seconds with 138km/h.

Hello!

Thanks first times.

The car is an empty OPEL Vectra Turbo. The all-wheel drive was converted by Visco clutch on lamellas slide clutch. I can adjust the strength distribution steplessly from 100:0 (FWD) to 50:50 (full AWD).
The engine is a C20LET with steel piston rod and forging piston for a reduced compression and piston head cooling. The crankshaft was facilitated and fine-heaved. The turbocharger was changed by K24 compressor wheel on K26 compressor wheel. At present I have approximately 310hp and 450Nm torque. The intercooler is from the AUDI RS2. I built the exhaust with 3 inch pipes themselves.

I will make times photos. Perhaps I get also a few videos of the meeting.

EDIT: her the Time-slip klick here

I have slept at the start

How do you start anyways? Do you just hold a certain rpm and let the clutch go and go full throatle? Ive never needed to be good at the starts for the kinda racing i do but i wanna go to the drag strip soon

The way I start is I try to keep rpms as high as possible for the tires to spin minimal. EX: 6K rpm would be too much... 2k rpm would be too little. 3-4K rpm is perfect for me.
