DRAG RACING A VAUXHALL VX220 | The Scotch Tape - Episode 1 

Great video looking forward to the next installment

Great video! Loved the presentation. Looking forward to the rest of the episodes!

15 mins early for work so stopped off for a coffee and ended up watching this.i own a standard vx220 and love it..what a fantastic video, really enjoyed.well done you guys.10/10

So damn gorgeous! Yellow is my least favourite colour in the VX220 until now!! Hope to buy one in the next year and take an easy 20 min drive to Crail, thanks for making this vid hope the Yellow Vaux is still on the road.

Of course the heater was working ! Nice one lads, lucky there are heater upgrades nowadays !

I don’t even like Vauxhall/Opel/Holden cars but I gotta admit, that vx220 is sweet

you dont take reaction time out of it lol

Love your video style. So interesting and original 👍🏼

if you find yourselves around Leeds let me know :) ill come and say hi!

I'm an American and the VX220/Speedster has always been one of my favorite cars. Wish I didn't have to wait 25 years to import one. I've kept up with prices for these and I could be wrong but they seem to have actually gone up a little over the last few years. Glad to see guys like you enjoying yours. Such a cool car.

Ha ha, what are the odds that you'd find another Turbo VX220 there ! That is awesome ! This is a really great video. Very good presentation and visuals. Greetings from Prague, CZ

Have you confirmed your horsepower with a dyno? I'd guess its lower than you think

You lot honestly should of got rid of all the luggage and close the roof man! With the roof open, you added like 150kg.....of weight/drag

I've underestimated this series for a long time and didn't consider watching it because i originally thought this would be more of a vlog. Now decided to take a look after seeing the On Board VX220 vid. It isn't a vlog and it's great. Love the storytelling as always!

Great video ,for drag racing wise you took into account your weight but you didn't take into account that your both in the car so should of been both your weight together then the fuel etc

My calculations say 13.7-1.5 for the passenger-0.3 for the camera and extra, -0.7reaction time =11.2s But 1/10 per 10pounds of weight cannot apply to any car. Lighter cars have a higher wind resistance fraction over the power for the same hp/t ratio unless they are extremely aerodynamic Your car has around 290 hp/t while gallardo has 297 so they are comparable but gallardo spyder has 540hp and it copes better with air drag so your car is indeed slightly below the gallardo (12.1s) and 12.7 is fairly accurate

Well done gents. I enjoyed this. From another VX220 2.2 supercharged owner

Nice video and information about these stages..! İts good edited.

You definitely deserve more subscribers!

One question, did the 220 turbo's time beat the Lambo?

you would be a great storyteller, well you are but a famous one I mean.

Again, really good work!! Loved your presentation =) out of curiosity, what suspension does it have?

You lost time having the roof off.

I’ve added induction cooling for brakes, improved brake discs and pads, limited slip diff What stage is it ?

About the heater... at least at lower speeds and higher revs, you don't really need it. After all the car has got a nice, big neck heater built in just behind the seats. :-D

awesome .....subbed will watch the rest soon thanks guys 0)

Great editing. Brilliant little video and adventure 👍

Performance stages remind me of upgrades in racing games.

5 seconds in, I like the editing I subscribe 👍🏻

Great video content and editing
