My weight doesn't help either Troy! lol
Don't forget that the VR4 is about 1450kg stock either
I hope to get a very low 12 out of it once I get my launch down pat

The ipod ( don't have Iphone yet ) was accurate to about 2/100's of a second on the time and 0.5 mph on the speed.
Pretty much spot on

Using an online calculator I put in the total car weight of approx 3470pounds and speed of 110 and it gave me a theoretical time of 12.3 all things being spot on.

Your car shpould be a LOT lighter than mine so I would say high 11's aren't out of the question.
Only one way to find out though

 

[JETGSR]

i'm downloading dynolicious now!!

 

[brisvr4]

Don't forget to calibrate it!
And put in the cars total weight including you!

 

[JETGSR]

yes I know that bit! I used to have a "real" G Tech

I normally go a full wet weight and go over the scales at the B/Plains dump

BTW I would drop the 8 off the end of your time! it makes it closer to a 12.76

 

[MDK87]

What's a "wet weight"?
Full tank of fuel?

What's a "wet weight"?
Full tank of fuel?

All fluids.......
Dry weight no fluids.

Gsrs are 1190kg Dryweight ex japan.

Mine weighs 1320kg wet with me and 3/4 tank, 1240 without me.....

 

[MDK87]

^^^^ Ah ok gotchya.

 

[cblancergsr]

wel my lancer would run 9.25 haha i sounds soo cocky

haha i guess i might have too race and see what it does do

 

[JETGSR]

OK heres the dynolicious data :

0-100 5.85
0-160 10.88
1/4 13.79 @ 186.3
.92 G's
peak HP 474HP

I haven't got a true weight yet I entered 1325kgs and 35% drive loss
I can promise it was way faster as I left in a screaming wad of tyre smoke and my head went dizzy from the sheer acceleration, it felt a very fast run also I hit 200 on my speedo before it said stop!
and my speedo is accurate!

I would guess some real figures (weight) might change some figures
also does it start counting after it says go? before you move.
Remember my car idles a bit rought so i'm wondering about that too.

I have run a 13.5 when it was a lowly 1.8 ltr and this one was way faster and i could never crack 100mph well this was 115 mph

so i think some more expermenting is due!

Troy

 

[brisvr4]

The weight plays a part in the power Troy.
If you set the power loss at 0% it will give you wheel horsepower.
Do you have the roll-out figure set? I have mine set at 12inches. It will only start the count after you start moving.
I can come and have a look at it with you if you want mate

 

[MDK87]

Whoa man, can't wait to see this machine on the strip!

 

[JETGSR]

that would be good!
as most people say it is very accurate.

I just had a laugh at the crazy figures it gave, shit it was a 3.45 60 foot
i dont think i've ever been below a 2.1 even my old 1.8 1990 pulsar (that I turboed) slowerst was a 2.2 and you can imagine the wheel spin in that!

So yep if you want to drop around just ring me!

PM sent with my number

 

[brisvr4]

Cool! Might have to drop over tomorrow night
I need to use up the fuel in my tank in case I need to umm err pour in another type of fuel
I wonder if the wheelspin had anything to do with it?

 

[JETGSR]

man it was pretty wild like i said it seemed to go pretty well!
if it were on the strip i dought it would of gone much better, except the wheel spin. probably less wheel spin .. maybe

 

[JETGSR]

have you checked the time stamp on the top of each post .. my last one 2 mins ago says 10.05AM when it is actually 8:05 PM

 

[brisvr4]

I see 'Today, 09:05 PM'

 

[GVR40]

mine says today 8:05pm, it depends on your time zone setting in the options

 

[MDK87]

LOL!

 

[GVR40]

at this stage I will still be out in the commy, next one i might surprise everyone...
