Free offer to dragrace!

primetime · 06-05-2011, 06:34 AM

So... this car has been out 2+ years and we only have roughly 15ish people who have visited the dragstrip and reported their times... In an effort to raise our sample size and get some more data I am going to put aside $250-$300 to the first 10 people who have not been to the strip and decide to go, I will pay their admission...

Requirements:
1/4 mile pass, no 1/8 mile #'s...
Timeslips at a minimum and prefer videos of runs...
Post of description of car, mods to car, track, conditions at track, and any other relevant information

How it will work:
Once the post is made send me a PM with the race fees and I will send you a check... I'll keep a running total on this post...

For the folks who have never been to the strip... bring a helmut and wear long pants and long sleeve shirt... get there early and watch a few people run so you know how to stage, where the track ends, etc. don't worry about reaction time just try to run the best ET you can... Oh and most importantly have fun on me!

This is not a scam and I will pay out the stated amount which can and will be verified by members of the forum who participate... Give it a try you may actually like it!

Paid out $'s - $60

prime-

I certainally can afford the entrance fee, so money for drag fees is not an issue for me. I do not have my APR chip yet (still waiting for EMCS). I appreciate you offering drag fees, but that is not holding me up. I will need to work on my 60' first. I do have a Gtech RR which I used before on my B5 S4 to work on my 60' and 1/4's.

Bruce, I understand... I am not trying to insult anyone by offering to pay so I hope you didn't take it that way... Just trying to get more results... Again, hope you understand... later Ron

Ron-

If I can get some drag data for you, I will. I will need my APR chip (or equivalent) first though. I really think the road course is more fun though, but that is only my opinion.

I don't know what's more amazing:

primetime's offer in an effort to get more excitement going in the community about testing the car or people STILL making excuses to not go to the dragstrip even when someone tries to PAY them to go. Absolutely incredible on all counts. Epic win vs. Epic fail.

Primetime - way to go. You are truly special!

Funny I just came across this. I am racing my S4 tonight. Will post up results and video when I get home!

How would you know? You stated you have never been to the drag strip and yet you say the road course is more enjoyable?

You don't have to go Bruce, you do realize that right? Prime is just making a nice offer to generate more interest and more data for this type of car. BTW, it would be good to get a nice baseline run without any tune first so you can see the before and after for your investment.

IMO.

Cheers
