60-130 Times

cossie1600 · 04-08-2011, 12:58 PM

You know how much power you are going to need to trap 130mph in a 1/4 mile track? My rough estimate is over 500HP for a normal street car, good luck getting there. 60-130 isn't something special, it's just a number some ricers came up with. It really is just a pissing contest, who wants a golden shower?

I use my pbox for analytics between my cars, my driving and other people's driving. I use it to show what I can do to improve my driving or bust some stupid myths.

You are right I am a puss, I spent way too much time gathering data that most people don't know how to use/understand. At the same time I am sure 98% of the owners don't care since they will never attempt a track event or do anything other than fast and furious pulls.

and BTW
you dont need to do it on a publice road. there are many private events, and this in an international thing, not just the USA. open your mind up to something other than your preconceived lack of performance interests.

jesus, you guys are like little girls. im sure some of the more powerful cars are interested in gathering this data. YOU may not CARE, but enthusiasts do

t

In a 2600 lb car with no traction, I needed about 450 to the wheels

60-130 is great for comparing turbo cars with a tune. They still have no traction down low, and so they can't actually put down good quarter times, and the drivers don't track them.

Please pee on me, I love it

it takes about 600rwhp to trap over 130mph. again, you have many avenues to attempt the feat though.. Im sure if you ask howm many of you guys have done over 130 iin your car, 75% would say they have.. I ask you this.. WHERE DID YOU GUYS DO IT?

and ricers thought of it? i doubt it brother. seems like all the high HP cars and enthusiasts thought of it.. because it measure the cars potential, not the drivers potential.. so yea, you have one for what? measuring the differences? gee, thats so far beyond what a 60-130 can tell.. oh wait a sec..

Inline pro running 552 rwhp. I believe that trap reads over 140

as shown in my logs, i did it legally at the track. its one thing to drive fast, its another to be racing on the street.

guys who cant drive want to compare their cars, not their skills. that sounds like a ricer to me bro.

lets get back to the pissing contest, little bit to the right please

yup, your sounding more and more intelligent everytime you post

i mean, its only become the most regarded measure of a cars performance. i mean, since we all arent andretti like yourself obviously..

gee, people want to know how their car performs. im so crazy for coming in here and asking about performance in a performance section.. what was i thinking

I guess our definition of ricer is abit differnt then

not my cup of tea i guess, i have better use for my pbox rather than some pissing contest

fast five is coming, ready for it?

Kind of like this kid who lives behind me with this 335 6MT:

ill take those stats over 99.8% from what ive seen from my 2 days around here

Red__Zed · 04-08-2011, 01:12 PM

I trapped over 150 with about 680.

LostMarine · 04-08-2011, 01:37 PM

yes, that would be about right for a car of that weight. not many vehicles get don to that weight, so for 130+ on average cars, its about 600.

I wonder what your 60-130 would have been? would be nice to have had a vbox in there huh

oh wait, you mean that was a legal way of getting your 60-130 time!? THATS NOT POSSIBLE!

GZ3 · 04-08-2011, 01:41 PM

what does the 135/335 weigh?

335 is about 3580 and 135 is about 33-3400ish

60-130 times are just another way to compare performance. Just like 0-60, 1/8 mile and 1/4 mile times. The OP is right about it being a good indicator of how much hp a vehicle has because it helps in eliminating driver skill and traction at the start of measurement as a variable.

Some people favor looks and sound over performance. Some people like the VIP flush look with stretched tires. Some people don't like it at all. Most of us are 370Z owners and almost all of us are car enthusiasts. We should be more civilized. If you see a thread with a topic you don't agree with, you have the choice of not coming into it.
