GTech Times..

I just got a 6.31 sec 0-60 and 14.84 sec 1/4 mile on the Gtech with my stock 2k2 auto. I brake torqued til around 2000 rpms then eased into the gas, real good launch not much wheelspin. Also, got the Gtech to read 0. I'm real impressed with the times, even though I know the Gtech isn't real accurate. It just gives an idea of what the car is capable of doing. I did two other 0-60 runs earlier this week and got 6.38 and a 6.8 (this one with my 180 lb friend in the car). Also did a couple 1/4 mile runs with my friend in the car, 15.3 and 15.5, this was my first time so my launches were bad with a lot of wheelspin and couldn't get the Gtech to an even 0.

If anyone is in San Diego and wants to find a good, straight, flat, and deserted area to do some runs, go to Clairemont where the new Spectrum is going to be. Kinda scary though since there's the CHP and Sheriff's place within a mile of the place.

There is a strip in Escondido, but its a slight incline... I managed to get 14.9 after I put the new wwheels on. I tried another run on Sunday , during the day, and got 15.5 ! LOL !! I was like WTF ! I forgot to turn the traction control off !

No traction control for me, so I don't have to worry. I did my runs in the middle of the afternoon so it was hot as hell. I want to do some night runs when it's cooler, hopefully I'll get better times.
