10.9 run santapod

10.9 Low boost run
Here's a little vid of me doing a 10.9. this was done at 1.35bar boost.
I diddn't push it at the start because traction was rubbish so only got a 1.8* 60ft
Ive done better and have run higher boost but that day my intercooler and vacuum pipes came off 7 times!!!
The car next to me was a modified escort rs turbo.
This is with my dbb t67.68 ar, spare tyre, tools etc, fully loaded, driven there and back 250 mile round trip, on road fuel.

Blimey !! No wonder the bloke in the right lane grabbed the brake !!!

[Bob M]

Are you referring to the cars ahead still finishing the run?
If so the foreshortening effect from the camera lens does make it look dangerous.

I would have thought common sense would pre-vail and have a clear track before the next cars at least go into stage!

Hm... kinda crazy!

Like I said, the camera makes the cars look a lot nearer than they are in reality.
I braked simply because I had finished the run. The other cars are nearly 1/4 mile further down the line. Enough time for a 170 mph car to slow down.
