****************
NEW 60-130 mph:
****************

1) Boost was dialed in and ranged between 1.37-1.42 bar -
2) Used MS109 Unleaded (105 octane)
3) Car running AWD

I ran several 5.9s & 5.8s and clocked off

a BEST TIME of 5.78 all with 1 shift. (on 20s) (Click Image to ENLARGE)

Earlier that evening I ran a 93 octane pass at 1 bar and clocked off a 7.14 with 1 shift (on 20s).

GET THIS - This was a bit of a shocker....

During my 141.61 trap speed 1/4 mile run, I turned over a 60-130 in 4.97 seconds!
I stared at the driftbox screen baffled at what I saw. After I analyzed the run to figure out how this happened, I am pointing the finger at the fact that the traction control was holding the car back all of 1st and most of 2nd, Due to the spinning of the tires and traction control holding back acceleration, the instant I threw 3rd, the car accelerated in a "sling shot" fashion. Almost seemed like a break boost rolling launch where the instant the traction control let off the car exploded forward. I was never able to duplicate this again and I know this wasn't the norm. Nevertheless, regardless of circumstance, bottom line my car turned a best 60-130 of 4.97.

Here is proof of the 60-130 run which again was extracted from the 12.31 @ 141.61 graph above.

Now stop sharpshooting.
