UBLY Results April 26th 2014 - GIAC Stage II B8 S4

[Jones2012s4]

So was it because it was a non certified track?

what part of this did they qualify for?

Some things to note:

no timeslip = no time
non-certified dragstrips will also not be added. Basically only results from a proper dragstrip with standardized/certified timing systems will be included. Examples of runs that will not be included:

1. pbox quarter mile times - should be self explanatory
2. temporary airstrip type dragstrip event times - there are lots of these in Europe as they unfortunately don’t have many proper dragstrips. Including them is tough because they often calculate trap speed differently and rely on GPS or radar gun devices etc. That’s not really fair to compare to times that were run on a certified track with controls etc. on the timing and track setup. i.e. someone who goes to say Santa Pod in England, an IHRA certified track with full on 60’, 330’, 1/8, 1/8mph, 1000’, 1/4 and 1/4 mph timeslips.

It would also be preferred if someone could post video of a significant time, as well as two of their timeslips from the track. A photo of the car at the strip with the grease paint numbers on the window would also help validation. Not that anyone here is going to pull any fast ones, but we can’t forget that people like kevkev etc. are out there, so we have to be dilligent in protecting the integrity of this list.

Well I saw some time slip, no idea about the track or whether it’s certified or not. There is no info on the slip at all otherwise.

So Tsvisas pointed out, not sure why he didn’t post here, that eurocode ran at 120mph.

Why isn’t that time posted on here?

And the butchering of my name continues… Now I’m making visas

Probably the 5th time I’ve done this. Sorry Tsivas…

I wish you would have said something in here before I made those posts, I didn’t see that time before. Until Ron mentioned it at beginning of this thread.

Accept me as well!

The best part about the EC times is that they actually ran a bunch of passes with better ET that day… However, the trap speed on those was 113-115 so they posted a slower time with the supposed 120+ mph… I think it was a glitch with the equipment but whatever… I think the 120+ mph helps sell more sets of headers… lol

All good. I am so used to it by now. It’s not even my real name. it’s a nickname.

My real name is quite long and very Greek.

tsivas sounds more like a last name

The Ecode pass showed no timeslips…they showed a printout of some sort with no date/time/track info. Primetime is right that they trapped low teens and then had one out of the blue trap of 120 which was the result of an insane spinny launch and who knows what. They had a 2.2 second 60’ time on that one. Dan @ JHM last year made a pass in his JHM supercharged B7 RS4 where he had a collossal tire smoke launch and a 3 second 60’ and he trapped something like 124 MPH…on JHM stage 1. That’s pretty much 3-4 MPH more than the best JHM stage 1 trap speed we’ve seen, so it didn’t make sense. The crazy ass launch caused it.

That track has been closed for a few years and was not NHRA or anything. IT just reopened in February of this year, and is now NHRA compliant. They changed a bunch of stuff and put up a $1,000,000 sound wall to stop the people living nearby from complaining. Must still be loud.

Thanks for the info guys, I am fairly new compared to you as far as the history of audizine, Audis, dragstrips, etc. only started getting into it probably end of 2012.
