I was getting consistent 6.58 - 6.66 with the Gtech, on the same stretch of road. Got a best of 6.51, but hit the rev limiter in 1st gear. In fact, I hit the limiter almost every run I made. A couple of times I didn't, but bogged the lauch. It was about 85 and very humid. I think if I don't hit the limiter and get a good launch I should be able to hit 6.3-6.4.

It seems since I did the OSCAI that it revs faster above 6k. I never used to hit the limiter. I need practice, I am taking it the the track for the first time on Saturday.

Dam i am so depressed at times that i didn't get a 5speed, but then when im bumper to bumper traffic i get all happy.
Still, i gotta wait 7 years for my next car. the 2008 Nissan MAXIMA. Hover-capable 700HP on ground, invisible mode option included, can take off like a harrier. can travel at 38000mph like a jet, Space Travel Ready Option, and 2 maxima.org stickers

0-60

I drive in bumper to bumber traffic everyday (work in downtown Pittsburgh). I never even notice that I'm driving a stick. The clutch is very easy to push in and smooth. I guess you just get used to it.


Anyone else test their 0-60 times??
