Kisco Report post Posted October 31, 2010 Nice! That means the 458 is a lot faster than the lp560. A lot more than the videoed races indicate. Mike stated that the 458 would pull pretty good on his 560 in 2nd/3rd gear. Remember, there races looked to be no longer than 1/8 mile. From a 50-150 roll, I imagine the 458 would be 2-3 CLs ahead. But then again, I wonder why the 458 vs. Balboni from Gustavs vids showed them to be near identical?? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TurboGallardo Report post Posted October 31, 2010 Nice runs, you can send me the file at [email protected] if you like. Sounds like you had pretty good conditions, did you feel like you left anything on the table on the runs? Thanks Aaron, I will email the file in a bit. Honestly, I feel like I extracted as much performance as I could out of the car; since the launch and shifting are automated there isn't much room for driver improvement. The only thing I can say is that the car was struggling for traction a bit in first gear and on the 1-2 shift due to the cold weather, although the cold air is good for engine power.

Id imagine a balboni is quite abit faster than a reg lp560. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kisco Report post Posted October 31, 2010 Why wouldn't it be? Id imagine a balboni is quite abit faster than a reg lp560. Really?? Hmm, I thought the LP560 and Balboni were equal in performance. Not sure why i thought that, but I did (even though I was aware that the Balboni is a few hundred pounds lighter) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

VBUGKING Report post Posted November 1, 2010 Here's the graphs of the best quarter run and best 60-130mph run. The road was basically 100% flat Car went [email protected] according to Vbox file, the trap speed will be a bit lower at the strip based on the way it's calculated. The best 60-130mph was 7.74 seconds. The shift times were tough to gauge since they were so quick, but the more obvious ones look to be 0.10 - 0.11 seconds, thats fast!

houstonT Report post Posted November 1, 2010 That is very impressive (the 458). The fastest I ever went in my Supra was 4.51 and my GTR went 7.71....I'm hoping to crush my 4.51 once UGR finishes my G build. Peter Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vegasgtr Report post Posted July 22, 2013 What car is that ? You should start a little lower speed to give the car some momentum? Maybe start 40 mph. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HarborTime Report post Posted August 10, 2013 If anyone wants the new Vbox sport there is a group buy over at GTR Life. It ends Monday. The new sport is very small and light, uses Bluetooth to link to your iphone, waterproof, battery powered and is 20mhz instead of the Vbox performancebox's 10.mhz It's a HUGE step up. Here is the link. http://www.gtrlife.com/forums/topic/88577-...__fromsearch__1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhbchess Report post Posted August 11, 2013 I think mullet said there is an accuracy issue with it, he was emailing with them about it after running it side by side with the classic version. Not sure how it panned out. If anyone wants the new Vbox sport there is a group buy over at GTR Life. It ends Monday.
