I got Ian Blackett to do this for me on Sunday. I couldnt make the car go quicker than 11.4 so I gave up and went playing on the carb only. I managed a 13.3 just on the Holley carb with no gas. Son I'm happy I've nearly got it sorted.

Anyway!
A 3 minute video of a 10 second burnout. all in the name of R&D of course :)

I don't mean to be daft, but why?? I can understand a slo-mo of a launch, but a burnout??

Yep!
I was happy with low 13 off gas Rich :)

I reckon I might just be able to bag a flat 13 before long as I'm trying out a new launch technique!!

The track photographer is a mate of mine. So he keeps an eye out for me as he knows I like slo mo stuff.

Anyone can request a slo mo video from him. Its no more expensive than buying pictures.

I told him that as the car was not going to be quick this wekend I wanted some fun. So he did this for me. :)

Sometimes it does not go well. 3 seconds on this one and the car decided it wanted to go for a walk.

Yes Stevie!
About 13-14 psi as I was only doing nasp test runs. I will often drop down to 11psi for a serious attempt depending on weather and track temps.

Funny you should say that Stag!!

A lot of folk have said it looks like an animation until Ian starts walking with the camera and things start moving. 8)
