NEW 60-130 mph test: 5.06 s

mertd · 10-02-2010, 07:29 PM

Weather was 11 C degrees.

Tested for 1 hour.

New 60-130 mph result is 5.06 seconds.

Had a lot of wheel spin and could not do better than 5.06 s

The asphalt was cold. Toyo 888s were not hooking good at the beginning.

DBN file sent to Scott for verification.

My 60-100 mph times suffer due to loss of traction.

Have a video of 45 minutes. Shows at least 15 full throttle runs. Vid will come on monday.

no nitrous. There is wheel spin without nitrous, and nitrous will just help to increase wheel spin.

nice, way to bring it to the haters.

Commanderwiggin · 10-02-2010, 07:57 PM

Very nice time mert...I appreciate the way you presented this.

02PRUV · 10-02-2010, 08:03 PM

Well done Mert. Warmer weather and better tyres and you will more than likely be in the 4's

TaZaM3 · 10-02-2010, 08:05 PM

Awesome time Mert! Waiting for the 4's and you can surely do it. Did you run more boost now or still 25 psi? What did you do to improve your times? I'm curious so when I try it I can have some advice.

Thanks Vick.
I have removed my co pilot 230-240 lbs man.
1 or 1.5 psi more boost pressure as the weather is 13 degrees celcius cooler than my previous test.

To be honest, what I did to improve? I have come by a good road surface.

5 minutes before I took the 5.07 s run, I was cruising back home with music in background and I was unhappy due to wheel spin. You will see that in the vids. Found a straight.

All of a sudden, found a straight and tested. Asphalt was so good that it allowed me to go down to 5.07 s.

Nice! can't wait to see some vidz!

thanks. Now I think a stage 2 HPF M3, the one like you have, is both strong enough to daily drive and also offers good traction.

Hope to get better times. But the loss of traction is the main challenge.

Once I upload the videos tomorrow, you can see the loss of traction from 60 mph to 100 mph all night long. Just the last 2 runs were better in terms of traction.
