Default zero to 60mph and back in 9 sec?

lets have some fun and see who has the better time.
As soon as I can I will video my stock 89 928 going to 100k/60mph and back

I know there are some of you that have some super hot cars, show everyone your stuff.

OK you got me there. I think if we can be that accurate it should be interesting

If you have a G-Tech or similar device, they have these kind of tests built in.
Gives you a red light to know when to slam on the brakes.

Most do 0-100-0 (mph) and the "first" was many years ago

the 0-60-0 is easy for just about any well running 32V or 16V Euro S to do...... I'd bet my 203hp racer could do it....

I didn't buy a 928 to look at it! 0 to 60 to 0 or 0 to 100 to 0 sounds good to me. Sounds like one hell of a good time!

Need proper calibration. I would like to see what those units cost on Supercars, vbox or something. Very cool. Would be a great tool to gauge my upgrades on the car as they progress. The hard part is to spend the money on the gauge device instead of the HP mods!

I wonder who on Rennlist has the least 0-60-0 time
I wonder if it will be a SC, a turbo, or a NOS car

Hmmm this sounds like something a guy could bet on

Only a video would prove the driver and the car

I've got this on an old g-tech run somewhere. Will see if I can dig it up tomorrow.

Hopefully it's a run just after you installed the SC Andrew, to see how much faster than 6sec!!

Well, I poured through my G-tech files and I couldn't find the one where I did 0-100-0. It might be on my laptop in the garage.

ANyway, I've got a few G-tech files showing acceleration, 1/4 mile, g-load, etc. I'll get them posted up later today.

Here are a few screen shots.

Here is a 1/4 mile run in my car. I think I had one where I did 12.3, but not sure. Still, 0-100 in less than 9.5 seconds is pretty dam good. 0-60 in 4.3 is very respectable. THis was on a regular street - so no tire stick'em to get you off the line.



Here's my car (red line) compared to Murf's 5-speed (this is not the std Stage 3 kit). Look at his 0-100 - 7.2 seconds! 0-60 in 3.8!



Here are some of the G-forces involved. Pretty insane if you ask me - Murf gets almost 1 full g off the line. You can see where the tires "hook" up.



There might be an opportunity to do some "testing this next weekend. Will post if it's noteworthy.
