Congrats Hami! Told you it was a 11 second car. Sorry we couldn't get the shifting fixed but out send electronic to me. tcu our maybe ecu. You can definitely cut some time off with the shifting fixed. And those were drag radials Mickey Thompson et street radial. Thanks for coming down to the rental!

Congrats again!

Once I run solid 12's N/A on street tires full weight, I may go the supercharged route. Looks like too much fun not to.

Learn something new every day, lol.

I thought all ET streets were like this...



Didn't know their radial carried the same name.

Don't temp me on the supercharger.

I wanna go fast!

I would say check out a tcu tune, may help you a bit. You can get it from eurocharged, just need to send in your tcu.

Congrats Hami! Your car looks solid n strong.
With all that power what kind of 0-60mph times are you putting down?

Im asking because my friend just flashed the ECU of his Panamera TT and does it in 3.38s, 1/4mile in 11.3s top speed 329km/h! All that with just a flash!!!!
If I kleeman my car I want to know how close I'll be. Had kleeman Denmark on the phone couple of times and I just dnt know what to do. If I pull the trigger itll be for May/June 2012.

The Panamera TT will destroy you even with a supercharger from a dig. They are no joke.

Hence the reason for "Destroy"

Please see line 5.

v.tr.
1. To ruin completely; spoil: The ancient manuscripts were destroyed by fire.
2. To tear down or break up; demolish. See Synonyms at ruin.
3. To do away with; put an end to: "In crowded populations, poverty destroys the possibility of cleanliness" (George Bernard Shaw).
4. To kill: destroy a rabid dog.
5. To subdue or defeat completely; crush: The rebel forces were destroyed in battle.
6. To render useless or ineffective: destroyed the testimony of the prosecution's chief witness.
Meaning....it will not be CLOSE.

A loss is a loss whether its by 1/2 a cars length or 5 car lengths.
I am glad you enjoy the term "destroy" but my question remains the same.

Ill just PM the OP.

http://www.wallaceracing.com/0-60_equation.php

actually I just calculated it again
the last time I did the calculation was for a run where I got 12.3 on my 1/4 mile

I just checked what I get on this 11.9 run and my 0-60 was 3.36s

I am guessing who ever can grip would win? :P
my friends usually compare cars from rolling starts it would be fun to see how that goes in my car

Your numbers just keep getting better
I wonder what the final numbers will be once you get the shifting corrected.

Around where I live we do short races from red lights mostly thus the reason why i was asking for 0-60 times & it wouldnt be possible to achieve those nimbers without lsd

The drag radials and VHT help too.
