Default Back to back identical runs?!?

Darn close! Check out the time slips. I put the times that were identical in bold (check out runs 2 and 3).
Earlier this summer I had been complaining about my A4 being inconistent. I was told to set the fans to come on earlier. As soon as I got Edit, I set the fans earlier and now my Z28 is unbelievably consistent. I am so happy I switched to an A4 Z28!

Run1 ................ Run2 .......... Run3
R/T: .464.......... .547 .......... .547
60': 2.049 spun... 1.953 ........ 1.953
330: 5.584......... 5.435 ........ 5.435
1/8: 8.419......... 8.249.......... 8.251
MPH: 87.64........ 88.08.......... 87.99
1000: 10.861..... 10.685......... 10.691
1/4: 12.928....... 12.750......... 12.759
MPH: 109.25...... 109.26......... 109.11
DA: 1739'.......... 1704'........... 1616'

Run4 ................. Run5
R/T: .485........... .483
60': 1.966.......... 2.014 spun
330: 5.435 ........ 5.463
1/8: 8.248.......... 8.253
MPH: 88.05......... 88.64
1000: 10.693....... 10.683
1/4: 12.765......... 12.742
MPH: 108.97........ 109.68
DA: 1347'............ 1155'

I thought it was pretty amazing that even my Reaction time was identical on the 2nd and 3rd runs...to the thousandth!

I have to figure out how to use Edit better because I programmed my car to shift @ 6200 rpms but it was shifting at 6600!!! from 2 to 3! I had to let off of the gas at the end of 2nd but that wouldn't work everytime either.

Have you guys ever run identical times back to back?

Derrick

That would require a little more practice on my reaction time, considering I red lighted 3 times! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

I can't stand not having a stall converter and slicks! I want low 12s! <img border="0" alt="[Burnout]" title="" src="graemlins/burnout.gif" />
