About the film «Dreaming of Speed»

Dear Sirs, We are very proud and happy to present you the new film from our team Dragtimes called «Speed Dreaming — Viper DT».

The film is about how the team brought Dragtimes first professional dragster in Russia, and after two years of hard work, autumn 2015 year car running Dmitry Samorukova set an absolute record of the Russian Federation at a distance 1/4 mile — 6.8 seconds at a speed of 309 km / h!

Start the way to the record was in 2014, when a huge number of overcoming difficulties Dragtimes team brought to Russia the first professional-class dragster Pro Modified (Promod) based on the shape of the body Dodge Viper.

The device was a poisonous green color and inspired horror and views and figures: huge rear slicks contrasted with «bike» wheels in the front, the engine sound terrified all life within a radius of several kilometers, and of the numbers, themselves cold, fueled fantasy flame the minds of people with petrol in their blood. Think about it — V8, more than 12 liters of displacement, multi-stage injection of nitrous oxide and a maximum capacity of more than 3000 hp Three thousand horsepower. This 3 power Bugatti Veyron, 6 Mercedes-AMG C63 S, 20 Ford Focus 2.0 power capacity. It if to explain the fingers, but the reality is at times difficult, of course.

And the year 2014, a stage of the Russian Cup for drag racing in Novokuznetsk and... we were not able to pass on it for technical reasons. Despite the primitive technology compared to today's engines are crammed with technology, have a good old V8 has its own nuances. Both seasons Viper serviced Baltic team led by Christian Kyabi. From the very first day of the appearance of Viper in Russia and to the establishment of Russian record these guys served, cared for, and took care of each of the 3000+ horses, which are hidden under a plastic body dragster.

In the season of 2014, the car did not show results, results that could be mentioned «Promod» in the same sentence with the word. But no one was going to give up: a pilot Dmitry Samorukov set a target for the season 2015 — show the first 6 seconds on the 1/4 mile and, in fairness, we note that the technique matched the ambitions of the pilot. Dragtimes team, in turn, set the task to themselves — to provide a new level of «hook» on the tracks.

And then came the season of 2015 year. Neither the team nor the Dmitrii of the offseason have not lost a fuse. The problem was the same, but its implementation was likely to 5 — in each of the 5 stages of the Russian Championship drag racing. Consultation invited experts on the preparation of the track, Dmitry efforts, work Dragtimes team, as well as, of course, Lady Luck — all these factors came together and the result is completely justified investments of labor — 6.8 seconds and 309 km / h at a distance of 1/4 mile! This record took its place in the history of Russian drag racing.

Well, the full path to the record comments, accompanied by almost all the characters of the stories in the film Yegor Voronin — «Speed ​​Dreaming — Viper DT»
