We did not focus on 1/4 mile or 0-60 tests today for a few reasons. 1) this was done at an old air base so the runway was very dirty and broken up, traction was hard enough as it was. Also with this being an automatic we want to wait until we can switch the kit to our manual z.

Gotcha..Do you plan on getting any track times? pomona raceway or iphone app.? ha
I'd rather see a car on the track than dyno numbers.

Dyno is for tuning..You can make a dyno say what you want. Track times not so much. Anyway it's great to see it out on the streets!

Either one can yield good info if we can get a comparison on the same dyno or track on the same day of other cars like, say, an M3 or an IS-F.

I have heard that Pomona shut down to the public a few years ago? I think the only dragstrips near us anymore are about an hour to an hour and a half away and they're only 1/8th mike if I remember correctly.

However Josh and I both have iPhones with 1/4 mile apps that we could probably use so I'm not counting it out entirely.

We do plan on giving the car to some magazines for testing and I'm sure they will perform those tests.

Yea, I know they still do them in the parking lot there but aren't they only an 1/8 mile? I could be wrong, I'm not a big fan of drag racing so I'll admit that I'm not up to speed on the local tracks. When I go to Fontana I prefer to go to the infield road course and race around the track.

0-60 times should be pretty easy to get, right? What car iPhone apps do you and Josh have?
