Always wondered when one would pop-up without me actually having filmed it. Looks like someone recorded one of my first runs on the Saturday at GTI international

Me whupping a polo's *** down the 1/4 mile.

And it's my exhaust you can hear when the camera turns away, not the dub.

Nice!

How do we know you actually won, you move off the line and then the camera pulls away!

Because the "scoreboard" for my lane comes up with my 0-60 of 6.97, and 1/4 mile of 15.50 - and the polo's one says 60 in about 13 seconds, and the 1/4 in 18. I handed it to him on a plate. (and I was sorely beaten by other stuff on the same weekend )

Cool! My favourite bit of the clip is when one of the public goes " Rich, that' ****e!".

Beaten by a Skoda! Oh, the tragedy!

What spec was the Polo? 6 seconds slower than you to 60mph but only 2.5 slower over the quarter mile :confused:

15.50 seconds.... What's the standard Quarter of a mile for the Remapped Fabia out of interest?

remapped circa 17secs,

remapped alone, circa 16.5 usually. I was really struggling for grip, and on that run you can hear it bog down slightly on the start (I was testing the water - reckon it was only my 2nd run of the weekend) and doesn't really get in flow until after about 100 yards (you can hear it start to ring true when the camera turns away )
