Finally got the GTI TDI out to Sacramento Raceway yesterday after work & got some 1/4 mile numbers. I launched in 1st gear & don't slam into each gear, this is my daily driver & I want to be nice to it. Best time was 14.658 @ 94.757 MPH with a 2.278 60 FT time.

Here is the Video my wife took:

GTI TDI Run 5, 14.658 @ 94.757 MPH, YouTube Video

And here is one from the back window facing Ken with his VNT17/22 ALH Golf:

GTI TDI Run 5, 14.658 @ 94.757 MPH, YouTube Video

And the slip:



The fastest trap was 95.255 MPH on a 14.721 sec run with a 2.351 60 FT time. Here are the videos of that:

GTI TDI Run 3, 14.721 @ 95.255 MPH, YouTube Video

and the rooftop vid:

And the slip:





All the mods are can be found on the here 1991 VW GTI TDI Build list.

This was my first time drag racing. The car is faster than this but I was not. I had a topped off fuel tank and I lifted on this run to try and slow down. I was in the 16.5 second bracket and I lifted on this run so I tried not break out. I also need to find my best shift points and work on the launch.
Fastest trap speed: 84.69 MPH

I'm now only going if the weather forecast is looking OK. I'm not wasting 500 miles of diesel to pay £15 to sit in the rain watching an empty/closed quarter mile.

Last RWYB day of the year on sunday ;)
Went to the last RWYB at Santa Pod today. Bad conditions -Raining (on and off so racing was stop/start), Very Cold so track was not nice and only managed to get 2 runs in as the track was so busy (queuing all the way to the end of the 2 lanes, anoyne who has been to Pod will know thats pretty far back!)

Not got a print to hand, but here are the times:
Seat Ibiza Cupra TDI - 262bhp & 350Ft/Lbs
http://www.darksidedevelopments.co.u...k4-1-9-8v-buk/

60' - 2.1409
330' - 5.6127
1/8 ET - 8.5028
1/8 MPH - 84.42
1000' ET - 10.9893
1000' MPH - 98.19
1/4 Mile ET - 13.102
1/4 Mile MPH - 103.85

So we made a 0.5 second improvement on last time, not bad for the first run of the day! Still no NOS either! We rekon we will get it into the high 12's, maybe even mid 12's with NOS. The car has done 108mph terminals before.

Think we need to update that log Jason?

Will have photos and possibly videos up tomorrow if they are any good!
Happy with the result and will be back in the New Year, bigger and better than ever!

Do I sense a bit of copy/pasting from Facebook update? ;) Having a crack at updating now. I've moved up to number 5 now. I also think I might have the fastest ET though. Still not sure about the 116mph claim.

Quick motor! Engine can handle a 6,000 rev limit? I'd love that on mine. :D I will update the list soon, by referring back to this thread.
