1st Time Drag Racing my Audi RS3 on a Unitronic - Stage 2 - E85 Tune!!!

I finally made the switch from a Custom Code ECU & TCU tune to a Unitronic ECU & TCU tune. I attended a Test & Tune at Mission Raceway where I constantly switched things up until I managed to hit my best times of the year in both ET and trap speed.
If I keep working on things with Unitronic I see a 9 second 1/4 mile pass in my near future!!!
Thank you VERY much to @silent11n54 and @e82n54 for helping to film my runs as well as sharing their fuel with me to make sure I had the optimal amount of fuel to drag race with!

Really excellent content! As a perspective RS3 buyer, I'm loving seeing these videos. I'm shocked at how few subscribers you have, the quality of your videos is mega. So many questions, but I'm sure you've answered them already in previous videos so time to get some more content watched!

Great job Adam, Feta Tip, don’t focus on the actual race and lighting. Use the time you have chasing ET to build enough boost at the launch and keep in mind the timer only starts once you break the beam/start moving. We saw dramatic improvements holding launch Control a second or two longer letting us get out of the hole faster. Congrats again bud 👍👍

@VancityAudi 4 года назад

Thanks for the tips! Sadly though when speaking to Unitronic they instructed me not to hold down launch control for too long or you don't launch with as much boost on their software. I tried to get better at just letting the light go green and launching when I feel like it, but I constantly fail miserably at it because I always want to beat the other car, hahaha

@VancityAudi 4 года назад

I was dialing in my tire pressure the whole day. Couldn't get it to bite. Unitronic has told me not to stay on LC too long or I'll spin. They recommend that I'm on it for only a quick second before I launch.

@rs3tuber425 4 года назад

You picked a strong 3 MPH on the top end and shaved 1 tenth on the ET but you are still holding back on the 60'. If you can get down to the desired 1.5 sec 60' I think you could touch heaven with the 9.99 pass. Your CC TCU seems like it was dialed in for a slightly better launch.

@VancityAudi 4 года назад

Ya, with a clean 1.50 or for sure with a 1.4 something I would hit a 9.9. The CC drag TCU file was crazy aggressive and ripped through the gears on track. The Uni TCU seems more refined and can be used for both track and street without the harshness that the CC tune showed on the street.
