Let's see some Acceleration Videos
It would be cool to see how some of these torque monsters we have on the board accelerate through the RPM band.
Over on the Porsche boards we've pretty much standardized on 60mph-130mph pulls as a good indicator of how much power a car is really making and is a good way to compare performance from one car to another without actually having to get both cars in the same place to square off against one another.
Here is a short video that one of my friends shot showing a 20mph to 117mph blast. This is an E55 with the VR675 package on it. He launches hard at 22mph and covers 117mph in just under 10sec. He's averaging 9.5mph of acceleration per second which seems pretty damn fast to me.

What do you guys think?
Let's see some videos if you have them.

Wow, that vid was awesome!
Here is mine that I've posted before.

Forget the acceleration, check out the DEceleration 140-60!

I would be more interested in seeing vids from 140mph to 190mph cause that is where acceleration seriously slows down...
0 to 190mph in about 55 seconds (no power modifications - standard E55):

I escaped my C43 dogpen forum so I know it shouldn't be here.
Here is a vid of mine 10mph-ish rolling start to about 80-ish mph on a backroad, over 100mph you catch air on the next rolling hill lol. not kidding. This was soon after the S/C install with no other mods.

I will try to get in car video at the track this friday and post up 0 - ~120mph in ~11s which equates to ~10.9mph of acceleration per second
Edit: 124.57/11.091 = 11.2316...

Jay, that car of yours just goes so effortlessly.. It doesnt even seem like the car is breaking a sweat but it gathers speed pretty quick.
I'm waiting for Marko to post an in-car video of his rocketship. Ive only ever seen it from the outside.
I wish Steve... We dont have the Autobahn over here... In some places in North America if you get caught going 50 over the limit they impound your car...
Yup.. Its 675hp.. The video is of Nate's car.. He did run an 11.05 @ 125mph so the car makes power, there is no question there.
Nate said the car was spinning its tires for at least 40feet and had zero traction. I guess its a bit too cold down in Tennessee..

I just crunched the numbers on my 11.13 @127.1 1/4 mile pass and if my math is correct it averaged out to 11.4mph/second rate of acceleration. I would assume I could go even faster from a 20mph roll-on. My point here is not to start any agruments or doubt anyone, but my car only makes just under 600 whp with the 70 shot of NOS.
