Longboarder's ESS VT2 625 Airstrip Compilation

Ran over 20 times last Saturday at Shafter Airfield. The vid below is a compilation of 17 runs (a couple I forgot to vid or batteries died). It's about 12 minutes long so grab a six pack before you watch

fuKin impressive
You beat some fast cars.

- I was surprised at how hard you pulled on the stock M5.
- You hung with the lambo and pretty damn good and Sick335 is right, you could have EASILY beat him if window was closed
- You walked the R8-V10 pretty hard
- Cobra is freakin fasssst!
- Terry's 135 is stupid fasssst!!!
- I like how you had the camera mounted, pointing backward for the STI

I'm most impressed with the reliability. I beat the snot out of this car on the track, airstrip, etc and not one hiccup. You will love it.

Yeah I had no chance. He only lost one race that day to a 930 AWHP GTR. He beat a 900 RWHP Supra and a 1,000 HP TT Mustang. No shame in that.

Yeah I pulled a lot harder on the stock M5 on my first run with him so I let him cool down for like 30 minutes and in the mean time I just kept going and did maybe 2-3 pulls in between. You'll notice he jumped a little too

That Lambo was crazy fast. Have no idea what was in it but it was putting the smack down on all the exotics like the 458 Italia. By the way I asked the Italia to run 5 times but he didn't oblige Probably because I was beating the cars that he was loosing to.

I was impressed that the R8 hung with me. Dunno if it had any mods at all...what do these things trap?

All I can say is Terry's car is insane. Gotta give him props for all the tweaking he's done. Great guy too.

That STi would could have beat me if he was running better gas. He was on 91 octane for some reason even though they were selling race gas there. Heck even on e85 he would had enough to beat me. I think I'm gonna do a GT35 swap on my STi now.

Great runs, always fun to compare your races against cars i have raced myself, looks like the vt 625 kits performs equal
Love to participate in events like this, half the fun is to talk to other carfreaks

Great runs! What were the specs on that other VT2-625 M3 you ran? Was is DCT or 6MT? Also, did it have an xpipe? Last I checked I thought you needed hfc/catless xpipe to run the 625+kits.

That F10 M5 was impressive! Looks like you pulled on the other VT2-625 just as bad as you did on the F10 M5. I'd like to see a run between those two looks like it would be close!

Thanks yeah no kidding there's two of these events in one month. Legal roll racing is taking off here.

I did put 4-5 cars on the M5 on a previous run when the owner said it was "hot". But my car was just as "hot" on the first run. I did a couple more runs as his cooled down for 30 minutes and you are only seeing our second race, which was a little closer. He got a slight jump as well.

I would think in this case that particular GTR was faster on this day.

Thanks. Feels like a completely stock car. Never a twitch or hiccup. It was very hot that day and my oil temp never budged an inch. Stayed right at 210. The seemlessness and reliability of this kit is incredible.

Thx yeah the other RB cars are lightened by 300 lbs and weight as much as Terry's car but he's still 2 car lenths faster than they are. Likely due to a couple differences including meth location and some ecu tweaking.

The other VT2 625 is owned by our own bubu. His car is also DCT but has the stock exhaust and 8,400 RPM limit.

To be fair, I had two other runs against him and they were a little closer, but the vid quality wasn't as good. He would definitely beat the M5 and maybe he even raced him.
