Does anyone have any reason why my 0-60.,0-100 and G's can be faster then someone who has a faster et? for example my r35 tc 1.718 0-60,3.546 0-100,1.81 Gs and only a 8.795 et...where for example the fastest r35 tc on this site runs 8.777 with a 1.725 0-60 and a 3.540 0-100.I wouldnt have a problem mine was slightly slower 8.799-8.785 but how is all my other measured speeds faster but my et is that much lower? for comparison the closest person to my et on the leader board with a pic runs 8.788 ET,1.733 0-60 and a 3.555 0-100 with a 1.77 max g....so somehow he runs faster with substantially slower g's and 0-60/0-100 times? how does this work?

bad pic for sure had to take it with my ipad and it doesnt take the best pics.

edit AGAIN little better pic this was before i started getting the 3.54x 0-100's but the sixty is still the same.

Maybe their 5th and 6th are closer together then yours? That's the only thing I can think of..

Exactly what Jimmy said. You have a great off the line but lose power in the last couple of gears. Don't always focus on 0-60 or 0-100 as it will only get you so far.

well they would have to be quite a bit closer then mine...i just got a 1.711 0-60 and 3.539 0-100....like i said if i was running 8.880's or 8.8799 i could see that they're top end makes up for the acceleration they lack but from 1.711x to 1.73x 60ft and my 0-100's are faster or equal to every other 8.77-8.78 makes no sense to me.

Another factor to check is how much hp you have.

yeah i dont only focus on the 0-60 0-100 but the thing is that this car traps the exact same as my other tc that runs 8.79's with slower 0-60 and 0-100 times?

All the massively high powered cars, especially AWD hit 60-100 in 4 maybe 5 gears.. So if they, myself included, have very tight 5-6, it will create minimum gear lag. As Trybal said, your 1,2,3,4 may be brutal, very useful on Indy, but our 4,5,6 is closer.

i know what your saying i understand but the thing is ive tuned a bunch of cars and this has me confused.Im dead serious man this car runs the same et's as my other tc,traps the same, same everything besides gearbox but has quite a bit faster 60 and 100 which makes no sense
