Upon Arrival at Kearney Drag Strip
The driver and their passenger finally arrived at the Kearney drag strip, both excited to get behind the wheel of the car and take it for a spin. The driver expressed enthusiasm about the prospect of smashing through fourth gear and seeing what kind of quarter-mile time the car could achieve. Their passenger offered some skepticism, suggesting that they weren't expecting anything remarkable but were eager to gather some data nonetheless.
Preparation and Setup
Before getting underway, the team took the opportunity to prepare the car for the run. They began by checking the tire pressure, which was a crucial step in ensuring a safe and optimal performance. The driver also made sure their computer was set up and ready to log the results of the run. Additionally, they took a moment to admire the newly drawn numbers on the drag strip, courtesy of Franco's skilled work.
The Initial Run
With everything in place, the team decided it was time to get underway. They pulled the tires off and began preparing for the first quarter-mile run. The driver mentioned that they were expecting a decent result but not anything spectacular given the heat. However, as soon as they put their foot down on the accelerator, the car surprised them by bogging down, which was precisely the opposite of what they had anticipated.
The Run's Result
Despite initial concerns about traction control and brake performance, the car managed to hook up nicely throughout the entire run. The driver noted that it still didn't feel great due to the hot conditions but took it in stride nonetheless. They shared their initial suspicions about the car's potential speed and mentioned an expected quarter-mile time of 9.4.
The Aftermath
The first quarter-mile run yielded a respectable result, with a lap time of 35.1 seconds at 18 miles per hour. The driver noted that there was some discrepancy in the reading but seemed to be leaning towards a more modest estimate of around 9.7. They acknowledged that they had struggled with short-shifting and not pedaling properly during previous runs but expressed pride in managing to do so successfully on this occasion.
The Drag Strip Performance
With their first quarter-mile run complete, the team turned their attention to the car's performance on the drag strip. The driver mentioned that this was the best track conditions they had encountered with the car thus far and hoped that it would translate into consistent results moving forward. They also noted that they were eager to see how their current setup would hold up in later runs.
Data Collection
The team took the opportunity to collect some data from their recent run, which included an average speed of 984 miles per hour and a quarter-mile time of 150.3 seconds at 160 feet. While not ideal, they seemed to be optimistic about the results, citing the fact that it was their first successful quarter-mile trip in the books.
Car Maintenance
The driver also touched on the topic of car maintenance, mentioning that they had encountered an issue with the link system during previous runs but found a temporary solution by winding it down and adjusting its behavior. They jokingly referred to themselves as "dumb bass" while discussing this aspect of the vehicle's performance.
The Event's Conclusion
In conclusion, the driver expressed satisfaction with their team's performance at the drag strip, noting that they had successfully completed their first quarter-mile run in the books. They thanked their audience for watching and invited them to subscribe to their channel for more content.
