BYP Racing - All Motor Drag Car *Quest for 10sec*

[benson]

New PB update 16/8/2012

Its has been busy year for the team building and prepping the other Time Attack Cars, so it was about time we started on a new project car.

The decision to build a drag car was different to what we have been used too for the last couple of years focusing on circuit and time attack. It's certainly a challenge to say the least.

The ultimate goal for this drag car is to break into the 10sec barrier and claim Australia's quickest Honda All Motor. High expectation to say the least, but we like challenges and thrive off it. We have set out a timeline to acheive this and it will be over a 1-2 year development plan

I thought i created a build thread to illustrate the steps that were taken when building the drag car. There's not much to it really, buy a chassis, strip out all unneccessary weight, put in a big motor and big fat slicks

The car was debut this passing wednesday at WSID 11/7/2012 with its first shakdown outing. The car ticked all its milestone for the first outing. There was a few small issues like any car with a full build, but we'll be out there again next week to get more seat time and feedback

Accomplishment to date -
Best ET - 10.9
Best MPH - 123.8MPH
Best 60ft - 1.569 60ft

Well done guys, you're off to a great start. You should pull that subframe brace off the back of the thing though!

[felixR]

Well done BYP! Car looks really aggressive.

Agree with the subframe brace too.

Well done guys, you're off to a great start. You should pull that subframe brace off the back of the thing though!

Yeah certainly a good start. From the 11.5 run with the 1/8 data it was good enough for a 11.3. As with the brace, thought it would be different with abit of bling to break up the carbon look.

Well done BYP! Car looks really aggressive.

Agree with the subframe brace too.

Thanks Felix .

no camber FTW!!!

Well it had 0.5 degree camber It running OEM front arms, might install adjustable arms to dial out the camber

Quick drag car..

what car hold the record for Aus fastest Honda all motor?

Event Report - WSID 18.7.2012

Australia's Fastest K-series All Motor - 11.1@121mph *BYP Racing

After some small teething issues with its debut last week, we were back yesterday at WSID for its second outing. We were really happy with the overall car set-up going into this outing and we were looking forward to a good night out

As usual, the car gets a quick look over before it heads out. A quick adjustment of the wheel alignment at the track and tyre pressure adjustment and the car was set for battle.
First run was fair from perfect. We had a good launch (1.6 60ft) but the car felt very sluggish throughout the run. Going back to the laptop and we noticed a check engine light for IAT. Somehow this was unplugged. Easy fix, plug it back in and VTEC and VTC are working again. Even without VTEC and VTC we still managed a 12.0@111mph

Second run out, with all system working fine, we ran 11.2@119mph. Temps were getting higher with the blocked front end, so we will be looking into this small issue next outing. Target reached for the night. All seem very easy for the car, so we knew there was definitely more in it. We were still shifting normally and taking it easy on the gearbox

Third and fourth run were the best of the night. Cracking a new pb on the 60ft of 1.607, the car was running 11.1 @121mph back to back. Its a great achievement to say the least, which is now the Quickest K-series All Motor in OZ. Over the years, many have tried to get this title, we are so proud that we have acutally done it with such a basic package.

The most satisfying part of it all is when you get everyone looking at the car, wondering if its turbo charged, supercharged or running NOS. Like we tell everyone, its the good old Honda K-series 4 cylinder. We had nothing to hide and left the engine bay open in between the runs. I think we have surprised and impressed alot of people with this car. These Wednesday outings are great, we caught with fans and friends, meet new people, made new friends and further put the Honda pressence back in the drag racing community.

The car will now have a few weeks off as we get ready for WTAC with our other car. We are hoping our good form will carry on at WTAC!. During this time, a GEAR-X Gearset will be installed and new camshafts will be tested and tune on the drag car. We are going for the 10.8 record held by Online Performance CRX next time out! We wont be holding out on this engine. We know we have one crack at the record, so all components will be push to the limits especially this OEM K24 bottom end

Big shout out to all people who were involved and helped with the drag car, friends and fans showing their support at the drags
