G-tech times with my auto trans

I have a Belltronic Metter.

I have brought my other car to the drag strip and compared the tracks times against the meters and the Belltronic is almost completely accurate. It will sometimes be optimistic by about .1 second.

My car has 540 miles on it. It is about 76 degrees at sea level with 54% humidity.

My best 60 foot was 2.27 so I can definitely get into the very high 5's on a cold night or with better traction.

My average was 6.2 to 6.4 seconds 0-60.

I would say I could do a 1/4 mile run in the mid 14's with a GOOD 60 foot.

I'm going to head to the local track (Moroso) soon before it gets too hot in Florida.

Nice work. Re-test after an additional 1,000 miles to see if it loosens up and gets faster.

Wow, that's pretty good w/auto. Road and Track managed to do only 6.3 and that's w/ a 6-speed.

I have the OLD PVC tires.

I didn’t break torque at all. Just floored it hard. I did have some wheel spin.

I tried leaving it in D and doing the low gear trick. They both produced the same times. BTW- even in L mode, the tranny will up shift to 2nd at redline. Then just pop it into D before it hit's the red again or it will bounce.

I know I can do a sub 6 second time with less wheel spin.

I broke my car in hard though. It produces better gas mileage and better ring sealing IMHO. You can gain 20-30% more power with this method.

I have seen more blow by with cylinders that didn’t have enough pressure to seal the rings when they were being broken in.

Here is an example.



“The piston on the right was broken in hard”
“Perfect Ring Seal”
