And that’s STD numbers, thanks for being transparent and sharing! The only thing I find strange from the video is the second run shows the same 0-100 and 1/4 time yet it was .2 slower to 60mph because of wheelspin?

Yes, the wheel spin in the beginning of each run definitely affects the time. My fastest runs had very little wheel spin for sure.

Very impressive especially for being just stock and barely broken in!

So you think if you hadn’t have had the wheelspin in the 2nd video it would have done 0-100 in 6.9 and the 1/4 in 10.9? How did it make up the .2 lost in the 0-60 from spinning is what I don’t understand as the other metrics were similar to the first run w/o wheelspin?

Yeah this guy has some need to get aggressive with people here every day and seems to feel that it is his place to determine which posts on this forum are relevant and compatible with his simple mind.

I’m not sure...I just made those two runs back-to-back. Those are the only two 0 to 100 and 1/4 mile runs I’ve made. When I get a chance I’ll try a couple more runs to see if I can get better times and see how consistent it is.

Sounds like a plan, just hard to comprehend how if the launch suffers that it doesn’t carry down track like at an actual dragstrip.

I will recommend you to use Dragy GPS and to instal the app in your phone. It’s very interesting to share your data over there.

The car seems to hook quite well and the DCT shifts were impressive.

Great numbers on your 2 runs! GM claims 2.9 to 60 and 11.2 @121 and you actually matched and exceeded that!

thanks for posting your video, next time would you mind doing a couple runs in both directions just to eliminate tail / head wind and possible road incline / decline? thanks again.
