Now you should progress to the 1/4 times, as 0-60 doesn't really mean much.

Talk about having no fun with your sports car that was purposely built for the track. 0-60 is so lame, I feel bad for you.

I have a spreadsheet that does calculations to get a 60ft (tons of math)..
EDIT: I barely run a 4, 0-60... 4.957 to be exact.

I attached the file if veetec or someone wants to give it a whirl.

In my heads-up experience using a G-tech at a pro track (Sears Point), I've found the original g-tech to be pretty spot-on for 1/4 miles over 12s. The 0-60 APPEARS accurate given my shift point and the speed/RPM there.

My original G-Tech was off by 3 ~ 4 tenths (every time) and by over 6mph on every pass.

The new Vbox stuff is VERY accurate, the Gtech not so much.

damn, talk about a harsh forum....people in my old mustang forum were alot nicer o_0 lets see i got one of you laughing because i'm a teen...but thats okay if im a teen, because if I were this teen:

https://my350z.com/forum/2003-2009-nissan-350z/5031-this-pertains-to-the-17-year-olds-getting-z-s-debate.html

i'd just get bashed for driving safely anyways..hmm..oh one of you feels bad for me because 0-60 is lame...
one needs evidence because a Z doing 0-60 in 5.1-5.2 is apparently
unheard of...

Will someone please tell me why everyone on this forum is so damn rude? In general i mean...I'm waiting for someone to post the pic of the reverse suicide gun, followed by someone saying that this post sucks and should be closed...But I probably read that remark on 3/4 posts I view in this forum anyways... it's a FORUM guys..The reading I do of this forum is full of nothing but rude comments and belittling statements...

If someone doesnt wanna get flamed, they have to make sure they are NOT a teen,yet not too old,but bought their own car, and NEVER speeds unless its on a track of course, has perfect english, and grammar especially on such an important place as a forum; and has written a ONE HUNDRED percent original thread, or by hell they shouldn't have wasted anybodys time.

ill probably get even more BS about this comment, but really just save it.. if i wanna read BS comments i'll go on ebaumsworld. But I know some of you agree with me, the general population is just getting plain nasty and rude, and I wish it'd change up a little.

Being a teen is fine, just don't start excessively lame threads.
