- When you are at an airfield filming for the day it would be rude not to have a drag race. I challenged StefABTV to a best of 3 drag race. My Stage 2 270bhp Mini JCW Roadster versus his 240bhp Alfa Romeo 4C. Manual gearbox versus dual clutch flappy paddle. The result was a bit of a surprise !

Make sure you head over to Stef's channel to see the race from his perspective. Don't forget to give him a Sub too 😜

I know I'm pretty randomly asking but do anybody know of a good site to watch new tv shows online ?
@Ares Bishop Flixportal :P
@Jaxon Abraham thank you, I went there and it seems to work =) Appreciate it!!
@Ares Bishop You are welcome xD
Haha so much fun! Great vid mate and happy bday for yesterday ❤️🙌
Going over to your channel now!👍
Loved this, i think it’s another trip to Lohen for some more tuning👍
Jeez Pete that Alfa is quick! Wasn't expecting that result! Going to watch Stef's viewpoint now 👍
Congratulations to you and Stef.
These videos are starting to show up in my news feeds from other automotive websites.
That should raise viewership on both of your channels.
I raced an Alfa romeo 4C in my F56 Cooper S which is 286hp and 433nm and I gapped him! That was in a rolling race from 20mph in second gear to around 100mph on a private road of course, Awesome video like always👍🏻😀
Just love seeing you, Stefan and joe honing it together! You can see the respect of good pals!
Cheers Mate. We sure have a laugh together 👍
This looks so much fun!
I'd love to give Ruby a race with my mini 😁
Power to Weight ratio. It matters. Thanks you both Ped and Stef.
Indeed 👍
So much fun, which I was sure it was going to be before it kicked off!!! I had watched Stef`s last run in the 4C and it is blindingly fast at accelerating, so foregone conclusion, but still brilliant and you were never going to stop smiling and laughing, Stefs a great friend and you two bounce off each other, and its infectious but in a good way not a viral way!!!
Great video Mr Ped. Having fun in your cars, that's what it is all about!
That looked like so much fun! I was about to suggest you switch drivers and you did it at the end, we just didn't see the race. Awesome video! thank you.
Fantastic fun! Very cool video. Ruby is just a great looking car and the 4c is just a work of art
That was awesome a video...loved the drag race.😎
Absolutely epic Pete, glad we could finally see it 😁😎👍🏼🥂
So close??? should have gone to Specsavers.
The best thing is having so much fun watching you having fun! I still remember your trip to Belgium to the Mini-event. That was great, too
So do we. That was some trip 👍
You both looked like you had the best of times! 👍🏽 Happy birthday Pete! 🎁🎉🎊
Thank You 🙏🏻
Drag races can be so boring but you two and a couple really interesting cars made this one a big win all around!
Thanks 🙏🏻
Lol 😂 awesome, excellent to see you two having a drag race. I must admit I weren’t sure to be honest. Please stay safe & healthy 💋
Hello Pete, thanks for the sane videos during lockdown, all the way from South Africa 🇿🇦
👍
Good evening everyone. Cracking video tonight. Pete, Ruby & yourself should be very happy. That mini has some poke. I bet it surprises a few people on the road. Stef's 4C sounds amazing & I didn't realise those cars were so quick either. Have a great weekend.
Clicked ‘like’ as soon as Pete described the content. Really enjoy hoping to other channel for different coverage of same event.
Love this guys 😀
Thanks 🙏🏻
So much fun, great one
Great fun! And I'm so glad you had a straight runway to use, as most other places have curved runways that require the extra skill of trained pilots.
Excellent way to start the weekend and best wishes on your birthday Ped 👍
Thanks 🙏🏻
picked up black/saddle Alfa S4 5spd hardtop 40k mi. Collectible, market $27k excellent, $21k good $15k fair, $1000 annual appreciation next 3yrs
Good video Ped. Didn't beat you by much! The Alfa is fast but it also costs about £50k!
If Ped had spent as much money modifying Ruby as what the alfa cost, Stef would still be sitting at the starting line trying to pick up his jaw.
Just noticed. Two days ago you had 65.2k subscribers, today 65.4k 👍 you’re on the up .
Getting there 👍
I really want to go racing now after watching this brilliant bit of footage of the public highway as it should be cracking watch really enjoyed it Ruby sounds awesome when you give it the beans. Happy birthday also
Thanks chaps 👍
The result was a little surprising in that the 4C came past you during the rolling race buy hey ho. Good race. Now book yourself back into Lohen. Belated happy birthday mate 🎂
Thanks John 👍
Good fun, just what's required 👍🏆
Awesome, fantastic, exhilarating, this made my Saturday morning, USA. Thomas
Cheers Thomas 👍
Well done guys great job 2 different tape of cars maybe you should do more of it in days to come 🍾🥂💙🏁🇦🇺
You two are lucky my 8L W16 Varta turbo Suzuki wasn't there!
Best comment EVER 😂😂😂
Nik B really lol 😂 best ever, bonnet would of pulled it off for you for sure man 👏🏻
Hahaha! 🍻🍺
Love it. Though she lost, Ruby done good!! Cheers Pete.
Well...save up for the Alfa then! Oddly enough I saw one of the residents at the Marina has sold his launch version Velar for a gleaming 4C and whilst he was cleaning it last week, we could not get to speak closely enough to maintain the dreaded distancing. I just might see it tomorrow (Saturday). Meanwhile, think of the cost saving with Ruby...and the reliability...you know it makes sense! Happy driving as always! Richard 😎😎😎😎
Lol that was awesome! Like a couple of kids, what a riot.
😂😂😂
That was FUN!! Now I don't have to trash my Roadster, and I can continue to drive like the Grampa I am. 🤣😂🍺
Flappy peddle transmission was the most British thing I’ve ever heard lol
😂😂😂
Happy birthday Pete!
Thank You 🙏🏻
One of the best places to have a drag race with your mate's👍❤🙂. If Charlie get's the Lohen treatment, maybe you can have another drag race?.
Oh yes 👍
Loved this 👍. Drag racing is great fun. We used to run the British Mini Showdown at Avon Park. The quickest down the quarter mile was a classic Mini with a Ford Zetec in the boot and nitrous. Was always in the low 9 secs, which is very quick 👍
ruclips.net/video/FMi11fxAKzg/видео.html Check his run here 😎
😮😮
I enjoyed that 👍🏻Thanks
Hi pp 👍 that was awesome stuff, surprised ruby came out with a 0-3 🤔 got to get stef abtv view now! Cheers 🥂
Who doesn’t enjoy a drag race, spent most of my adult life at the strip. Would be interesting to see what times the cars do over a measured distance. Great stuff guys, Steph’s Alfa ? I think I’ve just got the bug. What a cracking motor 👍.
Brilliant!
Evening all, FRIDAY !!!!!!!!
Yo
Simon W 👋
Great fun & interesting. An occasional drag race would be great for the channel.
I’d love to do more for sure 👍
Petrol Ped That would be great. They often generate good interest levels & high RUclips viewing levels so would be an extra string to the channel’s bow. Appreciate that finding a legal setting can be challenging/ perhaps expensive however! Keep up the great work.
Monsoir Ped, we should do Ruby vs our 330bhp Fiesta ST would say against Stef’s 4C also but it’s gone 😢 let’s do it 👍😎 great vid as always
Greetings sire. Ya can’t beat fun days. Live life to the max whilst ya can. 👍👍🇬🇧🇬🇧
Oh Ruby Ruby Letting the side down! Enjoyed that Ped Also a Stef sunscriber so thanx guys
Excellent Pete. He has sold it though, beautiful car .👍
Yep 😢
Hi Pete
What a great video yet again mate with lots of fun must admit mate I’d have ruby any day stay safe catch ya tomorrow
It was such a laugh to make 👍
You guys are lucky I wasn't there with my 94 F150, straight 6 cylinder 5.0 liter beast. The outcome would have been epic.
Awesome again pete,maybe some further mods, to beat steff next time,
Cheers,
Loved this Ped, the 4c is lovely. Let me know if you have an afternoon free, I'll take you both on. Jus
Great fun!.....you should do more drag races??. Was it your birthday?...hope you had a nice one!. Cheers , Richard
Yep, back end of the week 👍
Fast little Alfa Pete happy birthday for yesterday 🤫🍝🎂
Thanks Jeff 👍
That 4c is beautiful, I do love minis but the 4c is something else
Need to add mine Into the mix next time. Almost as much BHP as the two put together. Although Stef doesn’t have a car!
He has a Stelvio QV and RS6 at the moment 😂
Petrol Ped hmm good plan. Shall we discuss?
Haha that BMW literally came out of nowhere! 😆 Ruby Roadster held her own but the 4C is so light. I'm assuming this was filmed before you got the Clubman. I'm sure you would have been tempted to run the 4C against it.
It was indeed 😢
My neighbour has a 4c and i love it., tiny pocket rocket.
Yes I have one! And I love It👍 fool of Soul!! Some issues with steering but all can be solved!! And It is a Rocket
Unfortunately the Alfa’s not available here in the US, but if it were... The only part of the Alfa I’m not fond of is that grill which is they’re trademark. Guess I’ll have to be happy with my JCW Roadster ☀️🌵😎
A good second best 😜
Damn it... forgot time again!!!
Watched it while driving back to the lake in the T6 😎
Enjoyed it sooo much...this well was a little unfair against Ruby...😉 1984 I’ve driven a Mini after driving Go-carts 1975 yes it almost drives like a go-cart but the 4c is a GO-Cart that pretends to be a car 😂😎
The 4c must be a lot of fun...😃👍
Awesome thanks for sharing
God that alfa looks good
Next stage of tune forthcoming Lohen?? Be ready ....👍🏻🇨🇦
Good video but why the dodgy number plate on the Mini ? Do you realist that this invalidates you car insurance if you use it on the public highway.
Peter, your birthday is on June 4th??? Mine too!!! What a coincidence!! 😮
No way. Happy Birthday 👍
Super Guppy!
Evening all! Hope everyone is well? Happy Birthday Pete! Hope you had a great day?
Hi François are you good today
@@simon_sjw9973 All good thanks. You?
François G yeah good, glad it’s the weekend.
Hi François & Simon, hope you've both had a great day. Enjoy the weekend!
@@GenaF Good day thanks!
When was this filmed ? As I work on site at the airfield in question
First weekend in Jan 👍
Now you need to do that with the new Mini. I'm sure the result would be very different.
Yep 👍
Put Charlie up against the 4c or start swapping panels for carbon fibre on Ruby.
Steph has sold the Alfa recently? Would love to go to Bruntingthorpe, just to see the old aircraft 👍
Hi Ped
What fun🤗🤗
Happy birthday my friend, have one on me🍷or maybe 🍷🍷
Thanks Philip 👍
Hi Peddlerz, how are we all today 👋
Simon W Evening!
Evening
1BLUEMEANIE hi 👋
François G Hi François
Mate I'm gutted Ruby got spanked but the lads at Lohen could sort that, or you could sell Ruby to me 😁. Take care mate 👍👍👍👍👍🏁
Happy Birthday mate 🥳🎂🍻
Thanks Ralph 👍
I'd get a second opinion on that power reading..
That is one pretty Alfa, but that is what Alfa do so well.
When I ran track, my coach said to never look back over my shoulder as it would slow me down......think it is the same for your car, cause you were definitely looking over in the second heat, on one and three.....his car was just faster although yours was far better looking.
Hi Pete.
Hi 👋
Stef's sold his Alfa Romeo 4c. Bit of a shame that :-((...
Where did the Beemer come from in the first drag!!?? :-\\...
Pete's next upgrade for Ruby is going to be the engine from the JCW clubman :-))...
Good to see the pair of you on video again.
Do you know why he sold it?
@@dkendr6793 I think it was just for a change for his RUclips videos. Just to freshen things up.
David Kendrick little one on way
@@simon_sjw9973 - That's what his missus said :-))...
One of the guys we were filming with thought he’d join in 😂
Any chance you couldn’t upload this video because Stef was selling his car and he didn’t want anyone to see him ragging it!!!!lol.
Great video, thought Ruby would win rolling start but the 4C is awesome.
Lol that’s not the reason. Uploaded other drag races in it before. I bit more complicated than that. Might do a video on it on my channel soon 🙌
Stef ABtv Thanks Stef, I know the real reason as Peter(PM’d me) filled me in, enough said lol Will be interested to see what Alfa you get next.
Hi Mate 👌
Hi 👋
According to the timings and your commentary you did 0-160mph in 20 sec, slightly optimistic me thinks especially when you had a poor start, lol. Faster than a TVR Cerbera I wouldn't have thought so!
160??? I know he mentioned 120, but...
120 not 160 😜😂
The Alfa is consistently faster than the JCW. I thought the Mini would be a closer match than that. Looks fun though.
Should of bought that GP3 lol
👍🏼🔥
boys and their toys:)
He was warming up the tyres
Mr Mawson knows 😏
Close?
Hi all.
Hi 👋
Minis just aren’t really made for a drag race. Just not enough HP. There are quite a few fast cars made these days. Minis are a blast to drive.
Lucky sod 🤣
I know it's an old video but isn't the R59 JCW 208HP?
The difference between PS and BHP 👍
How much does is cost to hire Bruntingthorpe testing ground for an afternoon? Probably more than most of us could afford. ☹️
We were there filming for a client and they hired it 👍
6:45
Not really that close, was it? Maybe Charlie Clubman would have given the 4C a closer race?
