Did a pull in my 2500hd 6.0 ecsb 4x4. It has a udp, ss timing tables and about 50% tm gone. It's running on a 285/70 17 (33x12.50 basically).




This thing is pretty close. It ran 16.1@89 at the track in 90* heat. I also had the pup in the truck, bed mat, tie downs, jumper cables etc. Probably a extra 150lb of crap in it total.

I need to get me one of these things. I think they would be helpful in testing different set ups/teqniques for street racing

I got mine from amazon.

The run in the Mercedes is exactly what the mags said it was supposed to run. Someday I'll see how it backs up the track timers. I'll do a run in the notch here soon. But it's gonna be off what it ran because it's not gonna hook.

Yea..I have to get one of these too. This is next on the list of things to buy. Right now I have to do some suspension things first. Putting in a bump steer kit and X2 ball joints in front and new urethane bushings for the adjustable tubular upper control arm mount on the rear. Safety first.

As someone else posted a track run with it & it was very close. But what is the use of getting one then?? The street is not the track & vice versa. Just to do more number comparing over the net? With still the differences of thousands of miles away per say & all the variables?

Not against anyone here. Have fun with it guys.

Use it at the track to compare the difference between dragy vs the track timers, then use it on the street to see how different your car performs from the track to the street. Just saying it can be used for a good indicator how your car stacks up on the street compared to the track is all. Can possibly be a handy tool for those who dig street race.

It seems accurate to me. Great tool for making changes and testing them. Be nice if you could set up your own mph perimeters tho for roll racing and testing.

For me it takes street tuning to another level. You can actually see changes that you've done to a very high degree of accuracy with it. I've also been using it to adjust my launch techniques with clutch and get 60 foot on the street down.
And it makes the street a track with measurable numbers.

Besides that soflo you've always said your car roll races really well just not set up for the track. Let's see it! $149 and shut the haters up

I respect that.

Lol. In my eyes it does ok on the roll. As still it could be a slug to some. Really not for me to say. Other people that have experienced my car say it runs pretty good. For what it is.
Some on the net say it runs like junk.
