EDIT: oops,, i meant snapshots
i did about three runs in the freeway. i was getting SO much wheel it wasn't even funny.
i was using the escort g-timer GT2 which i just received today. i put the car in S-mode and pushed the throttle half way at launch to full throttle after about a second.
my best runs are in the picture below. that was with very little wheel spin at start. my other two runs were a disappointing 4.95 seconds, and 4.98 seconds from 0-60 mph. those runs were with wheelspin that almost made my car spin out of control. the roads here are very rough but not bumpy. it's hard not to get wheel spin with rpm over 5000.
car and driver magazine claims they got:
C/D TEST RESULTS
ACCELERATION Seconds
Zero to 30 mph: 1.6
40 mph: 2.3
50 mph: 3.2
60 mph: 4.3
those numbers seem possible if i didn't get wheelspin or got minimal wheelspin at start. i would like any tips on getting less wheelspin at start, tips for improving my runs. maybe new tires? well here's the pics
hope to do better next time
