10.77 @ 129.9 run in my Coupe



After many practice runs I figured out the launch for this car on street tires (Michelin PS 4S) and correct pressure, and ran my first 10 second run ever.
It was 84 degrees F and very Humid, this car has a lot more!
Car is built and tuned by Dime Racing
Enjoy!
Doug

CONGRATS Doug! I'm very happy for you.

I'll also try join the 10s club soon. I get my car back today. It's been almost 2 months! Tranny issues are no fun.

Anyways, well done to you, Steve and the rest of the team at Dime. Your car is a monster.

I could only manage a best of 1.978 60 ft with my Coupe the first time out (11.6 @ 121). I'm running stock PSS's and lowered the rear tire pressure to 32 psi. I did a small burnout to clean the tires and used launch control in race mode with ESP Sport on.

What sizes and psi are you running with the PS 4S? Use launch control or any burnout before the run? ESP off?

Very nice run, good to see upgraded turbos putting down those times

wow great time. Im sure with the proper weather you can see lower 10s in the 130s
22k in mods (that is before install and if the upgraded turbos come with tuning)
expensive car to play around with for sure

There is 1' of elevation change between the start and the finish! It is more of an optical illusion because there is an incline at the end.

Pbaylog- I'll be at The Nuccio Auto Group meet on the 24th, let me know if you will be out there!

Nicely done and congrats on the beast.
Care to share tire pressure as I have the same tires and will get to the drag strip soon.
