Pleasantly surprised
Tonight I ran the car in 1/4 mile mode for the first time. It’s a 1SS/A8. 100%stock, launching off idle with TC on, it ran a 12.2 1/4, 4.2 0-60. How accurate are these timers?
This run was on an old asphalt county road, slightly uphill the entire way. As always, it is humid here in FL, but not too hot. About 75 degrees and 70% ish humidity. The car had a bit of a load in it as well- me (240 pounds), my suitcase (at least 40 pounds), a craftsman 200 piece tool set in the passenger seat, and a 50 pound bag of dog food in the trunk... so not exactly ideal conditions, lol. If this timer is accurate, seems like I could easily see 11’s with some stickier tires and the removal of all the junk from the car. Highly impressed with this time given the conditions Side note.. I am in love with that “pop” from the npp exhaust at each shift with the A8. Intoxicating. |

My guess is its not super accurate but our cars are pretty damn fast lol. I let my older brother drive my Camaro today and he was blown away with its performance. He was a mechanic for Porsche and has driven many 911/ gt3 cars so that meant allot coming from him.
