indeed, and all measurements only worth sg, if checks the speed with a reliable (not built in GPS) as all the tacho cheats an average 5 Km/h.
Hello all,
the measurements are made with a real chronometer in the hand.
Starting at the left foot lifting point of the break pedal ( car pushing already slightly at 2000rpm)
Stopping at the passing point of certain speed on the speedometer.
Indeed i have looked only at the speed at the speedometer and have not incalculated the few % difference to the real speed.

As well the times before and after are done in the same way and the difference is there. There is no reason why i should lie about this. The risk of a technical failure is my own responsability.

The 0-100 5.3 is the best time in a range between 5.3 and 5.8 as the car is always spinning in some way.

In a few days i will have a camera and will make some mpegs for the ones who do not believe.....

It is not that I do not believe you. I told you that Iam impressed sinceI have not been able to reduce 0-100 time from 6 secs.

To tell you the truth I changed the measuring procedure several times.

1.-Chrono in left hand. I found this proceeding not enough acqurate.

2.-Video recording with cell phone

a.- I place my Nokia 6230i fixed on steering wheel.
b.- I set the sound speed alarm indicator on att 99 Km /h (At idrive)
c.- Turn phone video recording on
d.-Start accelerating (Ihave changed fom starting in 1st gear to 2 nd and to DS and D)


As you see, everything is too complicate. (To me, at least)


Kind regards

Although it seems to be a windows media file, my system cannot open it, unfortunately
