My good friend, you are going to have to change that 60-130 # to a 7.05. My best run currently is 7.06! Hehe, I just haven't sent you the file yet, because I wanted a 6.9. I have no doubt you'll get there Bro!

 

Doh!

 

Can someone educate this noob, please..=)

What mode is the best way to race the GTR as far drag racing it and 60-130? What shift/tranny mode are you in?

 

Just put everything in R-R-R and leave in auto.

Start in 3rd gear - 60-90, the car will shift into 4th around 90mph, and 5th around 120mph.

 

You guys are killing me here. I wanna play! I talked to Tym today. Unfortunately, I am stuck out of town a few more days. When I get back, I should have my new P-box Neil just shipped me and I can't wait to compare just for fun. Scott, thanks for posting this all up. I live in a small town, and if it wasn't for threads like this, I'd have no fun and friendly goals to catch. However, Im at 5600 ft. altitude, so major disadvantage. However, I will be running Sunoco 104 Unleaded, so maybe that can make a lil difference back up for the altitude???

Great job and thanks again for the fun facts.

 

But wouldn't I need to be in M mode to be able to down shift to 3rd and then start from a 40/50 mph roll?

I am going to VBOX my car tonight and post the results (car is bone stock). Thanks for your help.

 

lol! Yeah, I guess so...

I forgot about that. I think I was just thinking about drag racing, and the gears themselves...

Yeah, that would probably be best.

I've never done 60-130. I've always drag raced at the 1/4mi strip. Gearing is still valid, though.

You'd want to shift right before redline, because there a .2sec delay from hitting the paddle to actually switching gears (when in manual trans-R mode).

 

Cool. So basically for drag racing, put everything in RRR and leave it in auto. For 60-130, I will use M mode and shift it myself. I will report back in about 3 hrs..

 

7.12!

 

Put it in R-R-R, AUTO mode. Slow down to 35-40 mph. Floor it and bring her to 130+ (using the P-box speedometer). Done!

 

That's GREAT Scott ! you think you can do better ?

 

I do. I hope I can get into the 6's.

 

Went out to do some runs in my bone stock GTR. I did two runs only.

1/4 tank of gas
42* out

1st run started in third: Too lagy and felt slugish. 10.3
2nd run started in 2nd around 40: MUCH better. 9.6

Came home all excited to get Scott to verify it, and what do you know, forgot SD card at home.. Oh well.



Off to Switzer tomorrow..

 

Nice, Scott!! Almost there.

 

I asked elsewhere, but I'll ask here also. Neil shipped out my vbox yesterday. Will I be able to interface with my computer and create nice graphs like the one presented here? Or does Scott have something else allowing him to do so? I heard it referred that Scott had to "verify" that stock run by scvett.
Nice runs and info again!
