Our local track had "Beat the Heat" races with the cops. This video was me, all I won, was a T-shirt. Oh well, it was fun.

hahah thats a cool event! was it just the crown vics racing? no 5.0 stangs or chargerS?

 

That looks like it was fun.

 

Yeah. it was. The had the crown vic and two other fast full out drag cars running 7s and 6s in the 1/8.

 

nice.

 

Looks like a lot of fun.

 

Wish they have around here.

 

id love to pwn a cop lol

 

what did u drop ur clutch at? (on the launch)
EDIT: and did u have ur traction control on?

 

I launched on the 6000rpm limiter, I had the gas pedal floored until I eased the clutch out. It's the best way not to break anything. Also, you should never have VDC on at the track, it will slow you way down.

 

I heard about it, but didnt bother to attend.
Congrats on beating the medley cop lol

what times did you run?

 

ya, i figured VDC would just cut ur gas when it sensed wheel spin, but it seemed like that in the vid. prolly just caught traction or something.

 

Cool event, but your launch wasnt great.

 

bad launch

 

I don't know about bad, but it was decent. I use the same technique every time, and it always gives me 1.9s 60 footers. Oh, I was running 8.7s on that 1/8 mile track almost every time too.
It looks worse than what it is. The car bogs a little but not much, those launches are at 6000rpms!.

 

Thats awesome.

 

Maybe put a little more pressure in the tires or slip the clutch more

 

Don't make a habit out of bangin that thing off the rev limiter. At first I said wow this guys got a 2 step, but then I read one of your posts.

 

yeah i thought 2 step as well.

 

LOL. I would deff be apart of that if they did here at the track. Looks like fun and you can tell all your buddies that you outran a cop.
