That video clearly shows your 60-130 mph in the 9 second range. A 800HP car should be faster, my car does 60-130 mph in the high 8's.

Putfile still makes it a little blurry.
Vincent, you should be able to see it clear in the quicktime I sent you. What do you see?

Once again, the speedo video definitiely resolves all conflicts. Accurate meansurements are plainly unnecessary.

I can see you reach 120mph at 7s then shifted and reached 130mph at about 9s.

If you had ran WOT and full boost before 60mph I think you 'll get 7s.
That car is a monster nevertheless.

Theres no point, if i measured the the time from 60 till whenever you let off its in the high 11's. Your gears are changed in your car, i dont think you are even hitting 130 in 4th. Regardless the video is there if someone where to time it accurately from the start of your run till the end of 4th it would be in the high 8's, not 7 flat (no chance).

Agreed somewhat, i dont think he would hit 7's even if he were WOT before 60mph. Itll probably knock off .5-1 second.

I shift just after 130.

I feel like my man Gustav right now.......you know, sticking up for his cars.

i just watched the video. there is no point of arguing, none of this is accurate, no matter how you count. I did count about 9 tho and i can tell you that ive driven/ridden in many 800+ hp cars and they go through gears A LOT faster than your car. Your car looks like it has a lot of potencial on paper, not sure what the deal is in real life, maybe there are issues we are not aware of.
