Is the time to beat using the retro launch technique ??

Played a bit with it but only at 9.440 at the moment :/

This car is a bit like the Zonda. Set your top speed from 180-182. Launching in 1st comes easier even when 1st and 2nd gear is stretched all the way. So you get 3rd-7th all closer together which gives you a harder pull

Ahh, I was all around that, my transmissions were either 160-168 with second gear launch (my best time) or 190-192 first gear launch, With the 192 transmission 1st and second were probably too far apart and the other trans is probably too tight. Trying again tonight.

Deja vu... another one I can't quite get I thought I had better post now in case I don't have the talent time to get any more out of her

After a quick tune and a few miles:

 

[Swara]

I have a question. Do we post our times only if we beat your times, Karo?

 

[DavidtheGT20]

No, post pics like a work-in-progress time or something. My Bob actually is racing my SLS right

 

[Mikeybc]

Nobody's complained about it so far, might as well. I will when I give up if I beat it or not, emphasis on the not !

No feel free to post what ever time you guy want, its the improvement in looking at

 

[Swara]

I was just wondering, because it is what this competition is after all; beating Karo's times.

 

[fest0r]

Nobody would post anything most weeks then

As said before, it's the closest (or best) time that wins, but it's the taking part that counts... submit what you've got 👍

I'm not submitting mine because its too embarrassing...9.433

 

[fest0r]

Well what you’ve done there is submitted a good time... albeit, without a picture There is no such thing as an embarrassing time... far more embarrassing not to compete through fear of what people think IMHO 👍

As I said earlier in this thread, I think a lot of people don't post because they can't get the top time I see this comp as being more about an effort to get the most out of a car and not to outdo each other 👍

 

[DavidtheGT20]

Have you seen my time?

 

[fest0r]

Big thumbs up for taking part David 👍👍👍

 

[DavidtheGT20]

Big thumbs up for taking part David 👍👍👍

I couldn't resist driving my SLS. I wanted to see if Karo would make us tune an RX8 Type S but there's a very low chance it will happen But hey, it made my R35 TC time .300 faster!

Glad you learned! 👍

The RX-8 sounds like an interesting car!

The RX-8 sounds like an interesting car!

It has lots of potential, it could maybe run 10.3s max
(I'm sorry swara, but it can beat the M3 CSL )
