    I think a more accurate test of this theory would be to put weights inside of a car and take them out 100lbs at a time. Aerodynamics of the car change completely every time you remove and exterior panel. I enjoy the test and the concept however. At least someone took the time to do it in any manner to show the legitimacy of losing weight as an alternative to gaining power. So thank you for making it, would love to see it again with a more accurate presentation if you guys get the time.

    Still kinda proves a point here, but just for the sake of argument:
    1) Since the car is already in motion and at speed by the end of the 1/8th, you can't just simply double the times or expectations to carry out to the 1/4. It would translate a bit differently
    2) Some of the components they remove are affecting aerodynamics, which will affect the amount of wind resistance the car has to overcome especially on the top end.

      No, he is not correct. I hate when people agree with something that is wrong and start a whole thing of "well more people agree so it must be right." Per pound, they gained about the same amount of time throughout the runs. All but on run number 3 which they did a burnout for with street tires which is a no-no. Why do you think you typically see veteran racers (with street tires) drive around the burnout box? If the back glass acted like that much of a parachute it would affect all of the runs after the doors are removed and not just the one with a burnout.

  • @nunyabusiness896
    @nunyabusiness896 6 років тому +36

    There's a lot of X factors at play, though, that keeps this from being 100% accurate.
    1) taking off the bodywork, especially the doors, really hurts the aerodynamics and can hurt the time by 1-2 tenths on its own even in a 1/8 mile.
    2) even with an automatic and the same driver, no drag runs are perfectly consistent and about .15 seconds is literally an eyeblink, so expecting perfectly consistent results is unreasonable.
    3) the base weight of the car is a big factor in determining how much 100 lbs will affect it. 100 lbs. on a 4000+ lb car matters less than it would in a 2000 lb Lotus Elise as the percent of total weight removed is less. It's possible that in an open wheel car that weighs around 1000 lbs it would make *more* than .1 second difference for each 100 lbs.
    Bottom line: the 100 lbs=.1 seconds is just a rough rule of thumb, not a universal constant for the reasons stated above.

      Drag is negligible at low speeds. Also....removing the doors does NOT increase the drag, really. There is no airflow through the car unless you remove the rear and/or front windows. Taking off the doors can even REDUCE drag, since the friction is now only air over air., Though, the center pillar causes turbulence which complicates this somewhat

    Hot Rod magazine did the same thing 30 years ago with a 400+cube Caddy...by the end of the experiment they had stripped the car down to the bare essentials...frame, floorboard, drivetrain, dash, steering wheel seat, and driver. Made a giant go-cart that ran the 11s, just by stripping off weight.

  • @Broadpaw_Fox
    @Broadpaw_Fox 6 років тому +12

    So many people commenting on the extra drag from the lack of body parts- or doesn't make any difference in an 1/8 mile time with a car this slow. They might be hitting 60 ish at the 1/8th... and that's when the drag penalty STARTS. Might be worth .01 to .03 secs... not the .1's they're testing... ;)

    • @Broadpaw_Fox
      @Broadpaw_Fox 6 років тому +2

      @@ashleycharnley4154 - don't get me wrong, I do acknowledge that aerodynamic drag is a thing. But in the context of an 1/8 mile drag race, the difference in time will be insignificant. Think of how little time during that 10 secs the car is going over even 40 mph... the time difference due to drag is just not a big deal in the 1/8. In a full quarter mile it's a different story, but speeds are just too low in this case...

    • @One_Bar
      @One_Bar 6 років тому +2

      Drag is going to be very minimal, yeah. My vic with the same rear end locked hits 60 right at 8 seconds. So they may be hitting 70ish in the eighth. They’re probably incurring more penalty from the crappy tires.
