Its also slightly hysterical to me that in the "Street Racing" section of this site... only racing at the track is what counts. Anything else labels you as a bench racer.
Does this make me more legit than you?



Haha. Solid point btw...

Really?

I think I was more of an *** when I use to post as "Arctic '00". Now that was classic material right there.


Anyways, carry on....

VBOX is the only real accurate way to measure 60-120 and 60-130. You will get slope, temp, and other readings in the log file. Not just an app plugged into OBDII. Those are very inaccurate. Both my buddies c4 04 cobra and other friends RX7 run right around the same on the VBOX (5.4-5.7) and they both trap 140...give or take a mph. And the RX7 is by no means a 1/4 mile car and the cobra is.
I'm sure Vbox with its multiple method of measurement is the most accurate method. But this method uses the vehicle speed sensors. I would assume they are fairly accurate as well.

The difference between the 2 runs is not because of the 14 degree temperature difference.

It is:

1) Approximately 8 gallons less fuel in the car
2) 600 more rpm before shifting into 4th gear instead of short shifting at 6000rpm.

I have a 60-140 speedo vid if you want me to link it.

I know of a few TVS GT500's in my power range trapping high 130's-140mph.


Edit: btw.. either way.. not a big deal to me... I don't even own the car anymore.. Took it back to stock and traded it.
