Stock 17' 2SS Vert Street 0-60

Picked up a Dragy and ran some 0-60s!


-Stock 2017 2SS Convertible A8 NPP

-OEM Tires (GY Eagle F1 AS3) 4/32nds remaining front, 5/32nds remaining rear

-10,650 miles
-65 degrees, low humidity (really nice day)
-Street Run


Tires were not hooking. From a dig got a lot of spin, then a good bit again going into 2nd.



I am replacing my tires soon, and wanted to do a before/after.



Here were all my runs in order:
5.34
5.04
5.14
4.91
4.48
4.83
4.72


I attached my best Verified and Unverified run.


Just wanted to share as a data point.


I feel without any spin, I should be able to cut around .3 to .4. Maybe get to a 4.2 or 4.1.


Any others have times on the Convertible?


The Dragy is really great monitor as well.

Basically it's a GPS based performance monitor. Gives you all kinds of metrics (0-x, 1/8, 1/4 etc... Times, Elevation, Slope, G's). Links to your phone over BT. For $150 Excellent!

An interesting metric is the 0-60 (1ft).


Basically 0-60 once you've traveled 1 foot. Shows how much time assuming zero wheel spin from a dig. 4.31 and 4.03 seems really close if I had perfect traction.

OK so its a more accurate system than the one in the dash of our cars. It would be interesting to see how close the two are in 60mph and 1/4 mile times

I don't believe the Convertible has the 0-60 and a few of the other track type metrics built in. There is a G meter, I've used that a few times. My best is .76G cornering on the stock GYAS3s on the street. That's about as far as I trust it.

Convertible has the 0-60 timer, launch control, lap timer, blah blah blah... nothing missing unless you're talking about PTM modes on the 1LE or ZL1.

Under "Options" -> "Info Pages", I only had 6 of 8 active in performance. Enabled the 0-60 and Track Timer.


What a pleasant suprise after 2 years of ownership. There were also some pages hidden under "Options" -> "Info Pages" -> "Info".



Wow it's like Christmas in April.


I wonder why the hell they were disabled in this menu when I bought the car.

I think they are “not checked” on all of the cars as delivered. Owners Manual tells you haw to select them (but who ever reads that thing, eh? )

Now I have another little project I can do.

The GPS Dragy Performance Meter vs. the built-in metrics.

My best time was 4.2 seconds with the top down. General ultra high performance summer tires.
