Drag strips closed !!! Let's test my car and my wife's boat on the street

Seems like local drag strips won't open for a while so I took both vehicles to a local street drag strip LOL
Kind of surprised how quick my wife tank is for 5600lb SUV with 362HP .I only did 1 hit in my wife's boat , I think I can drop .2-.3 with more practice and runs .
I also set new PB in my car on 20 inch Michelin PS4 tires.

Damn son. That r8 is pure sex. No 2 ways about it!

Is you R8 stock? I didn’t know they were that fast. Sounds great.

Thanks , pretty much stock . Catback exhaust is the only mod

Do you have to link the Draggy to a go pro & your phone? I just got mine but havent had the chance to use it yet.

No , this video was made with my phone only . You have to export the video from Dragy app to your phone then upload it to YouTube

What does the R8 run without using launch control.

IIRC it was 10.8 or 10.9 last year when I made a hit without LC . I'll do it again when I go to my test spot next time

That would be cool, I’m curious to see the difference.

I like my dragy, especially with no drag strips open.

OMG, that R8 is a beast. The acceleration app is cool. I wish my G-70 had one. Launch control it does have. But no cool acceleration app.

Thanks BOB . But the acceleration app isn't in the car . It's a Dragy performance box , it hooks up to a phone . You can test any vehicle with it . Pretty cheap , around $150.
Got one from that place last year

As you wish LOL . I just made 4 hits , all done on the same stretch of the road , runs made within 5 minutes. 2 runs with LC and 2 without. Michelins are 2 years old and kind of beat up so the car was spinning a bit with LC on .

defintely gonna get have to get a draggy.

the R8 is a beast!

Still runs 10’s without launch control. Pretty impressive. You have the 600hp version right?
