Explain to me the difference between seeing my 0-60 and 0-100 and not seeing it? Please show me how it can be not legit?
 
I would love to see one of Janco, Horus or SmokenRubbers' runs without that launch. If some of you seriously think there is no retro launching happenning on the leaderboards you shouldn't be trying to tell people about it, because you obviously have very little idea of what it is. There is not a chance in hell most of the times set by the three above aren't using it. 'A detuned' retro launch is still a retro launch. End of.
 
I have my reasons, I don't want others knowing all my tricks.

Tricks ?? We don't use tricks here...just tunes ran as realistically as possible. If there's something to hide its not legit.

Maybe 10% of cars can be retro launched, make that only 10% of RWD's, you can't retro 4WD.

So did I do it with the R35? Besides that there are a million tricks people use, stupid unrealistic suspension, high grip tyres on undriven wheels, gearbox ratios that are totally wrong. Just because I know something you don't doesn't mean it's not legit.

YOU KNOW AS WELL AS I DO VIPERS AND ENZOS DON'T DO 8 SECOND PASSES WITHOUT RETRO LAUNCHING, BUT I COULD REALLY EMBARRASS EVERYONE WHO DOUBTS BY SHOWING A VIDEO RUN WITHOUT QUICKSHIFTING/RETRO LAUNCHING THAT STILL BLOWS THE TOP TIMES AWAY. GET OVER IT, QUICKSHIFTING IS HERE TO STAY.
 
Holy cow ! retro launching isn't quickshifting, learn the difference. Retro launch is going from 1st to 2nd in a tenth of a second...virtually launching and shifting to second simultaneously with no building of rpm's, quickshifting you let rpm's' build somewhat close to redline at least.

Try making at a 1st launch qs to 2nd then 3rd.. Idiot! Plus you just said acr and enzos can't do 8s without retro.. Well explain your time..
 
I still dont understand why you have hidden your acceleration figures though?

Because it could give people clues to my tunes, of which I have already given away one and that's one too many already. Next up will be a front wheel drive as soon as I figure this weight issue.

Next up will be another car not posted unless you abide by the OP like so many before you:grumpy::grumpy:
 
Please quote the part of the OP i'm not abiding by thanks.

PS: Don't be mad if you can't do what I can do.

The only clues 0-60 times and such give are whether your using a short trans with a stretch or a long trans...even then it's hard to tell, just showing 0-60's isn't gonna give away a tune but it helps us detect if echeating happened. Not saying you did either as there's no proof of it.
 
Actually to the keen eye, much more can be seen from it. You will understand better when you have some times up top and can tune more confidently.

You're right 👍 This is pretty much how I learned to tune, 0-60 and 0-100 give away everything about a tune, I'll openly admit this is how I learned to tune. And it only took me 6 months to a year to start setting and matching a few leaderboard records here and at the other drag site or at least being close to them (before 2.08 update at least I havn't timed much of my cars since then)
If i've never tuned a certain car before and there is a full time sheet posted for it, it doesn't take me long to be able figure out some settings to match the time or at least come within a few thousandths of it.

I already do have top times or near top times, all my tunes are from scratch, and many began long before route X. No confidence problem here 👍

Im just trying to say if we allowed everyone to hide 0-60 numbers the board here would be filled with echeat times. Many have come and gone trying to post them here.

Welp theres a lot of info missing on your pics that directly disobey most of the rules of the OP except for make and model.... There is no date specified and the numbers you blocked out hinder one from determining if you had outside mmeans of your time sumch as SRF, echeat, etc. long story short, your times will NOT be posted until you fix it.... Again im not trying to be a jerk, but those pics arent gonna cut it. there have been PLENTY of examples throughout the thread

Exactly my point. These figures give away too much and there isn't any way to keep my secrets other than not show these two numbers. Yes they are faster than the current top times but the fact my g-forces are the same as the top times should prove enough. Echeat launches give much more G's than that.

Yeah i've always wondered what truely top times are as I know most of the guys who capable of insane fast times don't post them, or stoped posting them shortly after Route X came out for those reasons as it gave new guys like me a huge leap in tuning ability. And also not fully true on the ECheat thing some cars dont show a rise in the G's if I can get my old phone to take some pics I will post an example shortly.

Well I guess I'm a complete idiot then, I can't figure out anyone's tune with numbers, just a get rough idea of trans a setup and maybe spring rates from the g's :dunce:

Agree with Maccer on the echeat, g's don't rise in many cars.

Done talking about it, good luck :)

Here is that example, one of the prime cars that doesn't show a raise ine the G's The Cuda. just looked and current record is 9.769.

Now if I was a sneaky bastard (which I'm not) I could submit this next photo and I doub't anyone would question it.

*****PLEASE NOTE NOT A SUBMISSION*******

And that's with an old tune, un adjusted for 2.09 with some tweeks to the suspension I could probably make this faster, still with belivable G's.

So if there is one car thats capable of using the ECheat technique without showing huge rise in the G's i'm betting there is many more. But I don't have the time nor patiance to bother finding out.

I bet I could tune this car to pull less G's and still beat the top time. Not hard at all really.
 
Two more for my collection and notice there is no white out over the 60 100 foot times

Since you clearly want to be sarcastic, notice how your times are nowhere near the top let alone smashing them? That's the difference right there.

Well I said it was next and besides the temptation to beat the cuda time like I said, here's one to study examine and try to recreate/copy/steal/etc.etc.etc.

:dopey:

why are you Being such an ass?

Excuse me? How is saying that being an 'ass'?
 
Probably because my abilities are out of your world. Good day, go offend somebody else please. I'm not here to debate my personality with you.
