VI Monitor used in Santa Pod Quarter Mile drag and matched Santa Pod's professional timer

There have been some groups that question the accuracy of OBD based engine monitoring and datalogging devices due to the delay in data. VI took the VI Honda Integra DC5 to the infamous Santa Pod Raceway in Northampton for Jap Show 2009 with the sole purpose of proving the sceptics wrong. And prove them wrong we did!! When compared to Santa Pod’s FIA approved official timing gear, the VI Monitors’ standing ¼ mile time was out just 0.06 seconds and 1.37mph on terminal velocity. All that equates to an average variation of less the 1%! So when you can’t get to the strip, you can be sure that VI will be the next best thing.

VI Monitor used in Santa Pod Quarter Mile drag and matched Santa Pod's professional timer

The latest stop on the VI Performance Tour was the legendary Santa Pod Raceway for Jap Show 2009; an extravaganza of modified Japanese metal. The stand was busy through the weekend, with Duncan and Carl offering free diagnostics services to the Scooby Owners Club and Colt CZ Club. Highlight of the weekend was the VI Honda Integra DC5 performing a timing test up the drag strip, pitting VI against Santa Pod’s FIA approved laser timing system – a test that VI passes with flying colours. Next stop in the Performance Tour will be USC in August.

iMotor online magazine road tested the New Vantage v12 and used VI Monitor to verifiy the 0-60 speed

The iMotor team road tested the Aston Martin V12 Vantage. The team want to know how accurate the aclaimed 0-60 time of 4.2 seconds is. They used the VI Monitor to test just that. The test with the VI Monitor showed a 0-60 time of 5.90 seconds but this is due to a massive wheel spin off the start and poor weather conditions.

VI Monitor Worked Just Great in All of the Renaults, Citreons & Peugots

Having setup the evening before next to the drift and stunt area, in a steadily increasing wind, the VI team of Duncan and Carl were delighted to find everything still intact as Sunday morning dawned bright and clear. After a tradition show breakfast at Macy-Ds we set to cleaning the VI Honda Integra, and hoped we wouldn't cause tooo much offence bringing a Jap car to the FCS! A lonely Honda in a sea of Renaults, Citroens & Peugots!

As it turned out everyone had a great time, there was a lot of interest in VI and we even had a local TV crew come round to find out all about VI Monitor.

And by the way VI Monitor worked just great in all those Renaults, Citroens & Peugots.

VI Monitor rolled into Santa Pod Raceway ....

VI rolled into Santa Pod Raceway for the Performance Vauxhall Show put on by the folks at Performance Vauxhall magazine. For the first time in it’s history, PV Show was extended to cover two days instead of the traditional Sunday event. Crowds braved the elements and stuck through the rain and wind on the Saturday and were rewarded on the Sunday by a dry (if not occasionally sunny) afternoon. Track action was limited by the weather, but this meant plenty of attention on the VI stand; attracting the likes of VX-Online owners club and Regal Motorsport.
