C63-tuned only 60-130 Vbox verified.

guys also 60-130 isnt the end all. Lining the cars up at the same time/place is the only way.
for example (this is factual):
I have seen car X beat a 458 repeatedly. And the 458 beat the Turbo S by a car at least repeatedly. I saw car Y lose to a Turbo S by a car. But car Y has a faster 60-130 than car X

Ive told you repeatedly in this thread Jon, I don't race for money. Please feel free to record your times and this time post the graph. Until then your numbers are garbage.

9.5 seconds??? Come on dude... Ive raced you 60-130. See sig... That must mean I hold the tune only record.
The Vbox has an SD card insert into it to log data. Without the SD card it in it wont log anything and it will only be on the unit.
If the SD card is in the unit then you need to remove it. Use a usb or card reader and dump the files to your computer. You wil get 2 files. TXT files and another extesion. The other extension will have all the data including height. That is what is most important.

I was the only one? Mthis said you were full of crap all the time. Everyone knows you on here Jon. They all know how you are. I just get under your skin because you know I have beat you and I have multiple videos to prove it.
Go get your data and post it. Then we can all try to beat your "Factory Freak". Without that data you sound like a little high school kid with a lot of hot air.

What's all the fuss about a vbox run? does it take weight into consideration, temperature, humidity??? I guess I'm from the old school where we line them up to prove a point. I'm just curious about settings and differences and does it take into account for them. To me there are so many variables. Guess I need to read up on it, buy one, and make some runs because I'll put my eurocharged tune only car up against anyone from 60-130

Ok cool. Sounds interesting. I might try to get one. know of any good places to buy one. I'm curious about the timing because my new c feels much faster than my 08. I just tuned it and I am impressed to say the least. So I'd like to compare it to the others. I of course will have the Sd card and graphs thanks fir the info.

Yeah I keep hearing about it. Someone actually called me and asked if I had used one and I said I didn't even know anyone who had one guess I gotta get with the times lol. I'm gonna look into getting one.

Both very reliable. Call for stock first though.
Its a very addicting tool to say the least. It measures much more than the 60-130. It does the standard 0-60 and the 1/4 mile. You can also set it up for lap times on a track. Its a bit costly but well worth it if you track your car.

Those are great times!! Please try to post a graph with the Performance box software.
Ive only done one 60-130 run ever and I got a 10.7 on a slight incline, I was kinda discouraged but I think with more passes I can get it down.

Thanks! At least some people give me some credit. Yes the graph will be posted on my next runs. BTW going from 40 rolls it spins. I should try from 3rd gear

I have never used one of these units but when you do the 60-130 runs do you start from 0 and just accelerate hard right past 60 to 130 and it just starts counting at 60? I assume that's how it works. I assume it's becoming popular because it takes a lot of wheel spin out of the equation for comparison.
My truck (which was set up for drag racing so wheel spin was not a problem) would do 0-165 is 4.5 seconds, I have always wondered what that would work out to is 60-130 #'s.
I read so many of these fast cars and there are some really incredible numbers. If a tuned 63 is in the 9's and that car is no slouch, and then you have some Porsche that is in the high 3's, that must be some incredibly fast Porsche. I think I need to take a ride in a street car like that, that's probably acceleration numbers that are pretty damn close to my drag truck was. Cars today are very, very crazy.

Yes. Rolling starts from 40 work fine though.

0-165 in 4.5 seconds?

GTR's can put up some amazing 60-130 numbers. I want to sit in one of those! Under 4 seconds 60-130!
