Badcoupe,
what was the MPH you were running to get those times. 12.3 is fast! im impressed. what about your 60foot time. this is where i am stuffing up. my best 60foot time is 1.98. i know if i can launch better it will bring me better times.

I think the difference is that he's prepared to launch in such a way that cv's, axles, cw's, gears etc are all at risk. I'd love to do the same but we saw what happened to yours Sean when you tried that. I'm not about to wait another 6 months for one of our prized diffs to go 12 flat or less. lol.

When you say almost 3 sec, do you mean almost three seconds flat or low 4 second?
What were you useing to time the pass? Was it actualy speed based or were you just logging RPM (sounds like this is what you did)?
A few people have asked what tires and I did not find a reply from you. Do have a video from the out side of the car?
I ask these questions because just logging RPM you can very easily get the tires turning at 60 mph in under 4 seconds but if the car is moving that fast is another question. I doubt it can be done on a car as light as yours with anything but a drag radial like the Nitto 555r.
You should take your car to the drag strip I love to see your 60' time. I would also love to believe you came close to a 3 sec. flat time (if thats what you are implying), but I realy can't. If what you meant was that you were around say 4.25sec. and that is close to 3.99sec. then I can believe it.
As usual if you did what you said you did I would love to see some undisputable evidence (like a video that pans and not cuts or a time slip from the drag strip with a matching ticket, or a picture of your car there with the number on the car corasponding to the time slip.
I know i am giving you a hard time, but when you make cliams of things that are very difficult or imposable to accomplish real proof is needed. I some one said my 951 make 400whp I realy wouldn't question it because it is very easily accomplished, same with a 5 second flat 0-60time.

I think the only way you could even come close is if you let Tony come over and tune your car. At least then you would have a shot. . .

dunno about the hp as I don't dyno my car. I'd have to find the timeslips but I belive it was close 120 mph like 118 maybe? All I know is that I had no problem with vipers z-06s 03 cobras etc on the street I think my best 60 ft time was 1.60 but usually in the 1.9-2.0 range
