1/4 Mile Times

[ViezuAustralia]

The drivers were saying there can be differences between true gps quarter miles and your normal Xmas tree lights and 'go' set up but there can clearly be big differences on different dynos too so who knows.
We were very pleased with the car's performance anf feedback for our stage one package either way

For sure Greg that's a 190 ish aw-kw stage one car on a sensible dyno not 270... Lol

Dont open that can of worms just yet Simon, lets sort the trap first!!

13.2 @ 116.8 would mean a lot of wheel spin usually, of course this shouldn't be the case for a Golf R. What was the 60ft time and what rpm (if LC or launch)/tyre pressure?

Why is there so much speculation . I personally dont beleive it based upon all the other cars and what MPH they run . If you want to beleive it then I ran 120 mph out of a KO4 , which is higher than Guys stage 4 car on race gas , and I was running pump fuel . If your not sure go out to the drags and get a proper 1/4 mile time and mph , you'll also get the 1/8 mile time and mph as well as the 60 ft time

So we can't speculate on a published trap speed, yet we get flogged for the published 168 dyno that we dealers all know is 20 odd short?

Fair's fair!

I was told launch was only about 4000rpm as it was a clients car.

Run the car again at the drags , easy !

who cares about dyno figure

The reason I say its likely to be 168kmhr is I know what all the cars in the 180~190kW atw range will do and thats pretty much 168~170kmph or roughly 104~106 mph what ever the 1/4 mile time. With the level2 2+ cars they all do between 106~110 mph depending on the temps (with sebs being an exception @ a true 113) and it really doesn't make much difference what the flavour of tune, this is only 170~177kmhr. Either it was a typo OR the timing gear they used was foobar. Take it to the creek or where ever and you'll see the same proper TS again and again and again. If I ever get a 177 kmph terminal speed with my current pretty full on tune I'll be a very happy boy

Edit: yes forget the dyno stuff the strip will reveal all
