thorne Posted May 1, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 1, 2013 Thought you were just at the track day? :gabe: I was, but I don't have the data for what I want to know. BTW where was your car? I wanted to line up. (I would have lost.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was @ Kings Island Fri Night/Sat/Sun Originally planned to go when it was on Friday, so we could still go down Friday night for opening day on Saturday.

thorne Posted May 1, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 1, 2013 Dead honest I think I can get the car into a 11.9 this year if i change a few things around and Toss some tire on it. Your car's way more pimp. I wish my G was fast sometimes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forrest Gump 9 Posted May 2, 2013 Report Share Posted May 2, 2013 Can I borrow it after you too? I wanna see how fast my van goes 60-130. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tripleskate Posted May 2, 2013 Report Share Posted May 2, 2013 I do. It's the standard VBOX - Performance Box (aka, not a driftbox). I'll let you borrow it for the day for $5. I'm in New Albany, right off of Dublin-Granville and Hamilton. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BBQdDude Posted May 2, 2013 Report Share Posted May 2, 2013 Wouldn't Torque app and an OBD2 dongle give you this information? If so you are more than welcome to borrow mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Jones Posted May 2, 2013 Report Share Posted May 2, 2013 I think he's looking for numbers that are actually accurate. ^This. While not exactly the same, most car magazines use a VBOX setup (more $$ rig than a pbox) to measure cars and publish numbers that way. The PBOX has proved to be accurate to less than 1% of the real time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We just need a good spot to test abd setup a couple of spotters. If you're looking for 1/4mi run roads, I have a few go-to's that I can recommend within a 45 minute proximity of me. For things like 60-130 roll ons, that's a bit more tricky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
