Default New PDR run 0-60 in 3.1

oops for some reason I cant upload this file to utube or directly here I think it needs to be converted ?

I can email it to someone who knows more about this ?


anyone know how to do this ?

thanks and merry Christmas .

this 0-60 time take half second off last pdr video I published which resulted in an 11.5 1/4 mile take a half second off the 0-60 should result in a 10.8- 10.9 quarter mile run and this is on the street with poor surface , properly prepped track where you can get some heat into the tires , maybe take a little pressure out line up in the freshly laid rubber from previous run and this car has to be mid to high tens

I really enjoyed your last video, I cant wait to see this video. Are you seeing a loss of power with multiple runs? Also big congrats on your numbers, This is about what I expected out of the Z. I guess you found a better road than the last video. Thanks for posting and actually getting out and enjoying the car. I will be getting my Z around March an A8. We may be heading down to the keys in it around April, would love to meet a fellow forum member and maybe try a run down your secrete road. lol. Congrats to you, And Merry Christmas. I will send you my email via PM and give it a shot for you but no guarantees.

Nice run, I think with a little more practice I see a 2.8 in the near future? Keep going for it Hardhatt.

Acceleration on this vid and your last one look very impressive.
Launched better this time coming out soft, last time spinning cost you 0.5.

I don't know how you are getting traction in Wisconsin.

I have a regular 2014 C7 automatic and in PA I am spinning like crazy?

Do they prep your streets with VHT out there?

BTW, Do you think a C7Z could beat my wifes cadillac SRX from 60-150?
Heat soak and aero are not a problem in the SRX.
J/K, taking a shot at some of the bashers.

I have 2 kids living away at college, neither with any student loans, there would be my Z06 and/or GTR.

because getting arrested for doing 5x the speed limit is not my idea of fun .

this deserted pc of road get to close to residential neighborhood so let off just before sifting into 3rd . that 90+ mph not enough ?

I already posted a full 1/4 mile run with 0-60 listed , it doesn't take too much to extrapolate what rest of run would be using new 0-60

Based on your other video though, 1/4 mile was around 127 as GM predicted, not into 130s like many people here said will be easily doable when people get their cars.
