Good afternoon. Good morning. Good afternoon. The octane has got to you.
The fuel smell is amazing It's freaking good. Good afternoon. Good evening. You're listening to the auto car podcast Sorry about the sound levels.
We're wearing helmets and we don't know how I'm going We're we're at role racing tonight in the green monster Yeah, it's Sydney dragway and we just go through a screw and hearing to show our our passes So for those of you have never heard of role racing. It basically you start Rolling start dragway. Well, it's starting to do about 50k an hour and the lights go green and Okay, we just passed through and hearing we're out of pit lane and now we're heading towards the starting grid That was a labageddon that just went past so we're at our city race Sydney, I want to see my little talk man. I can hear adrenaline.
It's going on about that. And I'm just the passenger Yeah, we're at Easter Creek there You know so basically for those who are familiar with the track where we're not at the dragway We're at the main straight of Eastern Creek and basically we're going in reverse So we're going up from turn one up the main straight towards the last corner. So pretty much up the hill So now what we do is we're queuing up. There's two sets of lanes You sit behind if you want to just race anyone you were in the race anyone lane and if you're with your mate You're gonna race together.
There's another set of lanes for that So we're just waiting to go out there. There's the Falcon 500 that I put on Instagram earlier There's a lot of cars here in front of us as a golf bar mark seven. We're in our house. GDSR the green monster Yeah, it's time to rock and roll and if you turn the phone off house, I would get any phone calls There's an old age here is like this it's like a who's who decades of cars and our S3 out He just went past this and that's a old email what that's an even six Yeah, old The answer is Lancer Because basically Like street racing.
Where is that the drag street is straight racing? You do your burnout. You've got a stage Lots of go green. This is like you know, you're on the motorway You're cruising the back streets and you know someone comes up next to you makes the horn you give a note and you know You got rolling some just cut it.
So what happens is The Marshall will say go and you're both a so you're supposed to maintain about a speed of 50 Ks So you have to head until the lights go green and nail it and nail it right so if you jump it Well, you jump the side and there's no way to lose it on down But the key is at the back end of the night then it becomes an elimination, right? So I said they do time it there's no time in this just first class of line And it's like a knock out. No, yeah We just get a bit of wheels. This is just a bit practice We're doing some runs.
We're doing some runs. Yeah, I feel for your car, right? Get a feel for you know, shooting the go button so There's a really cool car here super-chud. It's some amazing cars We can just read them as they go passes a lot of Falcons here.
There's a VH Commodore 63 So we're racing a golf bar mark seven so now we just gone past the line up part and we're now about to go on the track I've only been in this in the lead reversing and going I'm wearing a helmet that's too small for me I We are We get closer to the star The chillin light it's now The first day was running a test but we had the icon on House plane with his HSV screen is setting up his modes and idea on make sure we check on the portals Fix flow because digital speedo now, so we're racing a paulfire I've got no, it's just doing right racing. They will see We'll probably record this in stages So we might pause during the downtime and then I record it again when we come out again But we just there's about four cars in front of us for four groups So we're waiting for each one to go through but I think something's happened because Someone should have them cells on the track So what's this guy getting out now seriously? I'm just holding up. I'm just beating it I've been here today.
I've driven a lot of it I've just been feeling up not long ago for the wind I'm running the video two cars at night. Okay. That was a couple weeks ago So effectively just a bit of a pause while they're cleaning out the track There's a real good night out for a couple of mates with cars You don't want to do the drag racing thing because the We'd roll racing so there's no burnouts. Can't pick your ties up.
Yeah, right? There's no you know, it's all that up get on the converter or you know, hold the clutch in and you know I'm on track the line. So there's usually a lot less downtime. Someone might drop some fluid up top there So they're just checking on it But the good thing is it goes pretty quickly and you know, it's almost like real world racing I mean you have to brought your wifey one, aren't you?
Yeah Okay, so just that we're clear. Yeah, romantic. Huh? Just so we're clear, please.
Yes, she didn't scream. Oh, no, it's the name. I don't think I'm gonna snurry. Actually, she said nothing She didn't say anything anyone got to the pits.
She was petrified. Oh, so she's gone from the other extreme I thought she was gonna be chill. She was she was she said that she was looking for her stomach Well, she could feel that a big lift back at the start line because something that I haven't revealed We haven't had our own little podcast to talk about around. We've had few guests on lately I started a diet two weeks ago, and I can feel my stomach stomachs like feed me They won't be the thing coming out of it because it's bloody empty How was worried about the wake when he saw me pack the bags with all the recording gear?
Yeah I think wait really matters here What are they doing? They called it off? No, we're going all right. So you moved it from D from drag to S4 what?
Swift yeah Fancy sport mode All the all the I've got the driver mode in track mode so traction controls stability Right, you know, it's all you know at the minimum. It's not off Just gonna turn the retires All right, so where it's second group now the next group the front of us is the RS3 in the Lancer Evo So they're gonna go off next see a little bit in order. We're gonna have paddle shifter I'm gonna leave it in order. All right, so there you go on.
We're next so we're lining up next to the golfer Mark's seven He's telling us to wait till the grip in front of us goes So they've left so we're sitting now idly we're next to go out and so from here to the center lights Which is about a 100 meters away. Okay, we're doing 50k an hour. All right, we're moving now How fast we get up to? 186 so we smack the cough Just was the finish on it went through the back is drive through So basically so we're on the hairpin now the last man into the main straight so we're coming around I just didn't want to talk so you could hear the engine on that one but we might talk it through next time around What do you think played?
That was my first time in the beast in Legal acceleration, we could legally say how fast we went which it I feel calif like it broke its something He's like back. Yeah, so he's broken suck. He's broken his throat is a little bit of his life. Don't work That was amazing how long was it just that shitty?
Tomorrow, okay, it's a big less because I'm so now a hundred for the role than probably 300 Because normally a quarter mile run this car will go 128 mile an hour which is what 200? So this time you're starting at 50, but the first hundred you'd be going past 50 so you're starting off at 50 Yeah, so it's a short it's not a full quarter mile track was the full the full track the start line is was what like way back Yeah, so So what's happening now is they've been not using the full track tonight you'd go through the pit lane the speed limits 10 K an hour so the poor VL call a's gone off to the side to get help by the doctor So now we go through pit lane at 10 K an hour and well go straight again, or do you need to rest it? We've got a great IT to the call attempts hit was about 43 degrees in that The water tap water to very cool and we're back in the pits It's like 30 seconds a minute to get back in the call attempts are back down to nine degrees, okay? So that's all for vitals are good there So we're now gonna show how pass a lot of fast cars Highly modified turn out to as a patrol.
Yeah There's an in-line Look at the decent patrols coming out and that's not a standard patrol. I can tell you that now The race of the trial heavy WA is the badge So how many books you're on that don't you know to show your respect? So now we're going back so we're on the part of the track with a pit lane exit Because we're now going the right way to wrap around to queue up again, so who are we gonna race now? It's quite fun how much is it help to get here For entry and you should get a Really get an annual license it's a trip up and try to get licensed to come so that's all the cans license That's just a what a it's a basically won't I think has their own licensing.
Yeah, so So much is a license a annual license 74 bucks and then how much is it to get in? 134 So you can get it so the garage is a long bit straight or extra how much are they? Okay So a couple hundred bucks and you know it's stressing the car out so you're not heavily under the brakes You're not using up your tires off the mark. No, so it's really safe for the car 33 You guys can hear us are in front of us in a High-dye would it's gonna be interesting whether we're gonna be with a 63 or the RS3 so it's Australia versus the world Yes, and you've got a text message for a party.
We'll talk to you tomorrow. Yeah, I'm gonna say road tomorrow Oh, what 98? Oh, you'll kill it. It's an old square 80s one.
No, they're early 90s, right? That's a e-class. That's like Ralph's You're gonna get to a 60 year one hundred eight. It's a neat.
It's like the 80s early 90s early 90s early 90s. Yeah First series e with a smaller passenger window Next is an a you Falcon. It's security sirens on it So So we just in the uh We queue up and Trusting for you to a vote next to us. We don't know who we're racing yet, but they picked the car in front of you I just it's our three or three sixty three.
That'll be interesting either way. I think we'll smack the RS3 But the C63 what do you reckon? Oh So it's a state here. It'll be busy at two or quick before the only hold up is Just beat the rush where everyone's done got through our school year.
There's a 67 camera. Yeah, let's add right Which is what's in this three years are? Okay? Screening it's a couple car plate.
It's an exit Running I was listening so Traction we'll have any traction on that I got on these things the 1960s co-model Remember isn't it funny to say yeah to go to store next door They've listen they've been at least they come up with Lexus badges now they got back to the original Toyota badges It's the thing you don't see many of them around it's like the Fun story in the states where hold it did export some clean and VF comrados So so you get all the Australia that we're putting shevie Badgers on the models. Yeah, well in the state you know they do the ring the Chevy badgers off I put a whole bunch of those I know and there was one guy that was we met a bit sleeper a couple years ago It was a importing our V our blue youth and converting them to left-hand drive and selling them in the states Looks like we've got the C63 Yes, I'll put up black Take it's photos. It's funny how on the way you next look at temperatures a Yeah, and then everyone standing in the queue together So we're nearly there. What'd you do?
Yeah, if you hear a bit of cutting it editing it's because So it all looks like we've got the C63 Because the C63 is a little bit narrower than a touch called all I said a touch Respect your car and they've gone up in value. You'll have to make a couple of games tax when you saw this So now we're in the right hand way Fun feeling that this thing's running for parisets. Yeah, we're behind the 300d and it's not a 300d. I can tell you that now It's a sleeper is it that's what I want to do a mouse car.
Yeah I've got a made of houses under for like 30 years and we've got a new pay 110 Ladies For the C63 is the older shape. Yeah, that would be 204. Don't be 204. These are Hey, that's what the led back by it.
So it wasn't the last the last all right, so there's two cars ahead of us two groups We're three windows are going up 300 these to an outstanding burnout in front of us and a diesel So we're lining up. So now we're second group to go. There's a paramedic seat to our right So we're about to line up Giddy up. Giddy up and we'll talk through this one.
This should be a good rush. I'm interested in this one Hold them I can keep my eyes to the left. It's a big one. Okay, so we're waiting.
