Choppa's Performance Log

[yo tony]

Welp gotta pay for the convenience unfortunately

 

[Choppa]

Man soooo close, just can't hit them 12s yet. If I was on a track I would think I'd be there, but no spare time

Does it show 60ft times? That is usually what needs cutting down to get a great overall time.

+1

Not a 'bash', but you are using a "g-force" accelerometer, correct?

In my experience, they tend to time slow and me personally, I'd take that as 12.8-12.9 run.

I know a few guys use a GPS oriented app that produces times within a few hundredths of what their time slips stated while running a direct comparison at the track.

Maybe looking into the ones offered via 'Play Store' (or whichever app market you use) would settle your nerves a little.

106 just seems like an unusually high trap speed in relation to the e.t. for an SHO.

These cars definitely shine to the 1/8th, then taper off.

Not sure what a "G Force" accelerometer is. This comes directly off my OBD2, not sure if that's what you mean. I have read that they can be off a bit. I'll definitely look into the gps app. Thanks.

106 is probably pretty darn close. By the time I took my foot out of it to start to slow I was at 110 on the speedo

 

[gimpy]

It basically measures the the force in any given direction caused by the movement of sensors.

There is probably a more technical term for them, however they became obsolete (and inaccurate) when compared to GPS timing.

I meant in relation to your et.

For reference, I have trapped in the 106-107 range, but have yet to have a 13sec pass.

It could be in your short times.

Do you brake boost, roll into the throttle or let it chirp away, traction control on/off...even your tire pressure a few lbs too high.

You're looking at 5 hundredths of a second.

Realistically, that's 1/4 of gas and being sure to drop the Cosby's off at the pool before leaving home territory.

In order for my gauge to begin logging I have to be at 0 so I can't roll into it. I'm sure I'm losing time due to the chirp chirp.

Thanks

Tried again today, this time in Sport Mode (forgot that yesterday) with brake boost launch @ 2K. Better results. Hopefully I'll get her to a track at some point.

Now you are in E39 M5 territory. Not bad for a Taurus

Check out this time slip.. All in the short time...

Nice. Makes me jealous lol
