FWD CLASS AT DOORSLAMMERS 2024 - SANTA POD RACEWAY

[@marshgatelaneposse]

The UKs answer to 1320 always the best coverage

[@mk1kieran]

That's a huge compliment thank you, I've watched 1320 since a kid. I know where I need to improve to get on their level though!

[@meeka4]

⁠@@mk1kieranall you have todo is interviews either the drivers and In car footage

[@mk1kieran]

Driver interviews will happen in future videos

[@Fordster22]

Loving all of the Doorslammers content! Been watching these with my friends each time a new one comes out. I'll have to make it over to Santa Pod at some point in my life, hopefully soon!

[@mk1kieran]

There's a couple more classes to go! Thanks for watching, definitely make the trip over to Santa Pod if you ever can!

[@J666HN_does_nothin]

Youll have to go, I went last year and it was amazing. The noise, smell and atmosphere is great 👍

[@ollieduffell3116]

My dad's friend is on their in a blue Honda civic and a gold mr2

[@Garrett_Thompson]

14:47 That golf was absolutely flying for a fwd diesel. How many times was the fwd diesel record (and by extension the stick shift diesel record) broken during this event? It's got to be at least 5 or 6. Absolutely wild cars and awesome video Keiran.

[@mk1kieran]

The FWD Diesel record was broken 3 times I think from memory, I might be wrong though For stick shift I’m not too sure

[@NotthatNeil]

I don’t get why they have wheelie bars on fwd cars. Also, if the point is to go fast, why are there so many diesels?

[@gillespriod5509]

​​​@@NotthatNeil 1It May be for the rules because the air can lift light Cars at High speeds 2 Because here in Europe the majority of the cars on the road are Turbo Diesels wich are very simple to tune and with bigger injectors, a tune and bigger turbos can put five times the original HP remaining somewhat reliable and very cheap for a dragstrip car, a stock 1.6 liter diesel can take 500 HP for a few runs, then you Just take another engine at the scrapyard basically for free and repeat🤣

[@garageamsterdam]

Is that the Toyota with a transversely mounted 2jz? 4:25

[@mk1kieran]

It is

[@ChristopherChua-vv4if]

Wow the rwd really is fast in acceleration smoke the wheelie bar fwd

[@user-kc3fn1gu6g]

Looks an ace event 👍

[@Paulus2001]

Best Drag race Yt Chanel!!!!! ❤😁🤙🏼

[@mk1kieran]

I don't know about that but thank you! 🙌

[@Paulus2001]

@@mk1kieran yeah because you have a fucking huge variety of Dragsters, like no one else!! Greetings from Germany 🍻

[@Labergemusic]

I really like FWD class

[@mk1kieran]

It always throws out some surprises, FWD has come on really strong in the UK over the last 5 or so years. I think Doorslammers has mainly contributed to that

[@Labergemusic]

@@mk1kieran I agree, and to your point I think FWD has made huge progression in that time in America too.

[@rickybarker4023]

Always love the content you bring, maybe a separate vid looking over the cars in the pits, few questions with the owners on spec, current pb and future aspirations 👍especially with the fwd lads

[@mk1kieran]

Thank you, appreciate the feedback it's something I've wanted to do for a while but I find it hard to get the balance of not missing the track action being only one person on my own. I'll find a way though, will need some practice 😅

[@dawidlamik9744]

Best Chanel, great move

[@mk1kieran]

Thank you, and congratulations on another win! 👏

[@BEYTEK]

yass lamik for the win. Im on a lamik TCU in the RX7. this why we fast :D

[@mk1kieran]

Haha Lamik knows his stuff! 👌 When's the RX7 coming back to Pod?

[@BEYTEK]

@@mk1kieran sooon. just need to make it reliable. new engine all in and its melted a piston already with a failed injector. Cant catch a break

[@ldnwholesale8552]

Stinking diesels. Enforse rules like they do with truck racing that allows very little black smoke. There is no reason to hose so much fuel into them and very bad for the sports 'image' with people going home coughing up black.

[@mk1kieran]

There is a rule in place about diesel smoke and I’ve also seen the startline Marshalls tell the cars crew to reduce the smoke before.

[@MrSonicAdvance]

3:10 What a little screamer that Nova is. Love it!

[@mk1kieran]

It was 60ft-ing like no other FWD car, so consistent too!

[@thecarguychannel]

@@mk1kieransounds like a Nissan GTR engine conversion?

[@NorthSideVol]

10:10. Уже подумал, что не увижу здесь людей с дроном в руках.

[@mk1kieran]

They are the live feed cameras 😅

[@NorthSideVol]

@@mk1kieran Теперь понятно! Просто со стороны выглядит как минимум непривычно.

[@simtalkayak]

So... Why do some FWD cars have a wheelie bar?

[@mk1kieran]

Technically they are called Traction Bars on FWD, What they do is stop weight transfer keeping the front weight over the front wheels which in turn aids traction!

[@simtalkayak]

Huh, ok, that sounds really smart!

[@fusemalaysia840]

nah....they just do it for look more style...the true it not really functional as it should...you just need rear suspension damper to adsorb the impact

Все же видели момент 9:19, когда что-то отвалилось и уехало, тем не менее, машина поехала как надо.

[@mk1kieran]

I only noticed that whilst editing, no idea what it was. Looks like a filler cap of some sort 🤷‍♂️

[@NorthSideVol]

@@mk1kieran Да, возможно так и есть, раз на заезд никак не повлияло.

[@datscort350]

Why do we allow health hazard diesels in motorsprt ?

[@BiancaZombie]

They aren't. You are seeing large particles that are not toxic, diesel is much cleaner than gas, which has higher carbon monoxide. Diesel looks bad, but washes out, gas toxins are invisible.

[@clinteastwood9729]

Hideous car day at Santa Pod

[@GrandmaTDawggsCribb]

Why is that? Just curious.

[@esaiejoseph2105]

Diesels output so much smoke can't see or breathe
