8.4 second 60MPH to 130MPH

I was tooling around the other day and never looked at the file until today. I knew I had a good time but 8.4 seconds 60MPH to 130MPH is my best yet.

The car is really running great these days.

I have a Revo Flash, Forge DV's, ATS/Carbonetics Triple Disk clutch and Agency Power silicone boost hoses. Yes, my Turbo S is a cab with the spare tire and tools removed.

The slope was 2.8%.

I have seen your turbos in action and they perform very well. You should be in the high 7's or 8.0

Robert,

I have good news and bad news:

The good news is the run was definitely an 8.44. Your car is fast, bro.

The bad news is that it was made on a 3.24% decline (exceeding the 3.00% maximum) so I can't validate it as an official run.

I calculated the slope to be 2.8%

My formula is to divide elevation change by distance (in feet) and multiply by 100.

Elevation change was 34.189.
Distance was 1218.191
Multiply by 100 = 2.8% slope.

You must not be looking at the same run that I calculated, there are at least 6 attempts.

I see the difference. The run I calculated had a height of 375 feet and yours was at 512 feet so please use the same run that I calculated for an offical time. Thanks,

You used the one that was at 1740 seconds into the run. That is at a slope of over 3.0%.

You're correct. You had 2 runs that were both 8.44. One in the beginning of the file, and one towards the end. I checked the first one, not the second one. The second one is good to go.

For future reference, when sending files with multiple runs...identify which run you want me to check. Thanks.
