New 0-60 time
 
And best time So Far 0-60 - 5.50 using my g-tech :D

:cheers:

Fyi- it wasnt a hard launch. maybe 3000 rpms

2.5?


Wow,really? Thats faster than I would have thought.

jwilson95 12-02-2007 05:22 AM

How accurate are those g-techs?

I have seen the commercials, but no idea how good they are.

I guess as long as they are consistent, you can get a feel for how good one run is vs. others at a minimum.

blkboxster 12-02-2007 06:43 AM

There pretty accurate, my times are usually from 5.5-6.1 depends how i launch and shift

I think our cars are rather capable, but the way they are set up they seem to suffer rather badly from axle-hop. Have you been doing anything to alleviate that in your tests?

I dont feel any axle hop, but there may be some, when a let go of the clutch it feels like a perfect launch just with tire spin, i dont know how else to say it.

What wheel hop?

we all have wheel hop. maybe its because you only have 20,000 miles??

Does wheel hop have to do anything with mileage??
