Post your 0-60mph times!!

I have 2.3L motor w/ GT30R and made 376whp on 91oct 21psi
the best time I got was 4.22 s using Apexi RevSpeedMeter.
oh and that was 0-100km/h which is 0-62mph
and i'm still learning to launch it properly..


i'm curious what will my time be with race gas at 440whp?

No one knows their 0-60. There's no way for the average person to accurately measure it. 4.22 is not very good, btw.

Iam curious.. Have you ever been to the track? What was your 60foot? Because a 4.22 0-60 seems kinda slow, especially for a setup like yours. You say youre still learning, which would make sense.

Unless you've been to a track where they have some new state of the art timeslip read outs, where it actually shows your 0-60mph; no thats your 60foot.

KartaRailed, you get a 60' time at the track, not a 0-60.

Cloudy, sucky launch I'm sure.

Yes sir Mr. There is a way.
Jester developed a software a few years back that works good.
I am going to give it a shot and see if I can up-load it for you guys to try.
Fill in your car info and time slip, and it will give you everything you need.
My 0 to 60 is 3.27 seconds based on my car weight, and current time slip.
Let me know what you guys think of it. I am curious to see if you guys get
HP numbers close to your known dyno numbers.

Er, that's just a guess - it's not actual. There's no way to get 60's for every car with one formula like that only based off 1/8th and 1/4 et/mph. Gear ratios, shift points, 60', 330', etc etc, all play a part. Like I said, there's no way for the average person to accurately measure it.

Nothing is exact, Clayton. Will it work on Brent Rau's, Titans drag car, or Sheppards 1G?? Probably no. But for 90 percent of the users here, it will come close with some minor error. We drive daily drivers, not race cars with all kinds of chasis enhancements and transmission hybrids.
Plug in your numbers. Tell us how off they are from your real numbers. Use the data you have from when you dynowed your car and then use the time slip you got right after that run you made after the dyno.

Hey, this is the first time you interact with me and you annoy me already..
did I ever say that my 4.22 s was good? I said I'm still learning to launch properly..
and its 0-62mph.

didn't I tell you I used Apexi RevSpeed meter which is able to measure 0-100km/h times? why is there no way to accurately measure it..
the RSM starts the timer once you start moving from a dead stop and it stops counting when you reach 100km/h... why is that not accurate? it reads speed from the ECU
