That's really not the best methodology due to the human error and lack of accuracy with the speedo. Try using a Vbox or even the Dynolicous app for 15 bucks. I have seen that little app be nearly consistent with Vbox results for 0-60 times. Ignore the HP results however.

At least we now all know where you stand relative to whether proper break-in is important. Hopefully your diff and tranny are OK Break in is overrated anyway.

I got just around 4 seconds with Dynolicious (after break-in) but I can't recall the exact number. One run dipped into the high 3 sec range if I remember correctly but that would have been after the tires were warmed up (on Michelin PSS, not OEM) and I couldn't replicate it. I was actually a bit faster in S+ without race start. Manual mode was slower for me as was race start. Race start was more "dramatic" but not as quick in my experience. Getting a good 0-60 time is all about getting the perfect balance of wheel slip and throttle application in this car. Too much wheel slip and you lose a lot of time. 0-60 isn't all that meaningful anyway and more just for fun IMO... 1/4 mile times and 60-100 are much more meaningful but also more difficult to get without going to jail... hence why I don't have any

How are you guys mounting your phones when you use the dynolicious program?

I run about 4.2-4.3s with ESP off, and 4.5's with race start in the BS. That's measured with AMG Perf Media. I'm also at 3700ft, so I only make ~420hp here.

I use mine on the iPad. I simply lay it flat on the passenger seat and tight against the back. When it is jammed against the back and you are accelerating, it doesn't move.

It's crazy how much altitude impacts this. You should come visit us at sea level and re-measure. You can stay free at my place if I get to drive your BS

You're altitude is probably more considering its the middle of summer. The effective altitude is probably closer to 4500-5000ft.

We are less than you and the other night at the track was 4700ft DA.

My best was 3.90 on my Hankooks last October on the street. I need to start tracking my times at the track with the vbox - I always forget to do this!
