Default Regal vs G8 GT

Met up with SRZ this morning and got 2 runs in.
First run was 55-110, we hit it and I was creeping ever so slightly... we had to cut it short though.

Next run was 55-140. SRZ got a bit of a jump because I spun, but the Regal started to creep back and I overtook him right before we shut down.

The Regal was pushing 12psi for this run and no brake boosting, conservative tune... needs some work.
IIRC SRZ made 413whp SAE and his car is a beast above 100.

Vids up now

not to sound like a dick... but that data logger is incorrect. I did 60-120 in 7.8 seconds....

The only data logger you can use and trust accurately is a Vbox. Everything else is a joke. There 500 bucks...for the cheap one.

The real question is...Why the **** do you post this without videos? You know these guys are going to rip you apart!? For you're sake, I hope you actually post these videos "today".

At this point you'r almost as bad as Automach, here's to redeeming yourself

SRZ and Juice live near each other I think, this race isn't far fetched at all. Now you two just need to get to the track and see what happens

Maybe you guys should rematch :-p

It's just a data logger that my tuner comes with. It takes a snapshot of the PCM like 50 times per second. I just compared the timer with the MPH.

No spray. G8 hasnt been spraying... needs a stand alone.

Yea exactly... thats very inaccurate... its basing it off pcm logging tire rotation...NOT GPS. Vbox uses accurate GPS.
