Looks like Allan will be rocking a new signature starting tomorrow!

You arent reading it right, look at the end MPH for each car.

 

Aaron

I see you matched the ET and the LP was 4 mph slower on a 60 -130 of the SLR

So Kisco... Is your kit just bolt on and remap? No porting to the engine? No exhaust etc?

 

And what mods do Renntech do to the SLR just a remap?

Regarding my car, that's correct. Stock pistons, stock rods, stock heads with a bolt on TT kit.

 

Regarding the Renntech SLR, I am not sure. Others will be able to answer that question.

...Oh and congrats on those shift times!

Thank you..

What tyres are you going for?

What tyres are you going for?

 

Not sure yet. I do want to go to the track when the weather cools off a little, so I might opt for the Toyo R888's for now and then change them out with a normal tire next season. Not 100% sure just yet.

My Renntech SLR has the ECU, pulley, intercooler upgrade. Puts down 600rwhp and 600rwtq on pump gas, and drives exactly like stock.

And I wouldn't take Bernard's bet Allan. Any GTT would destroy an SLR far worse from a dig, especially with that power-limiting problem in 1st/2nd. That seems to put the SLR in the worst position possible (RWD, power limited vs. AWD traction).

 

 

Acchichelli went 3.2 sec 0-60 in the SlR with just a tire swap... 1/4 mile GTT will lose 9-10 times

I have to agree, the TTG is harder to launch and isnt anywhere near as consistent from a stop.

It seems to me that the VBOX results are riddled with too many variables.

 

It would be more concise to see the two cars head to head.

 

Maybe it would bring an end to all this verbiage.

Doubtful. Just to be brutally honest.

Now how much fun would the forums be without all the virtual bench racing and arguing over which car does what at what speed

Something interesting,

 

I just compared a 0-100mph run I did in the Renntech SLR to a 0-100mph run I did in my TTG when it was at the 750rwhp level. The Vbox display (which factors in rollout)showed an identical 6.5 seconds for both runs. Factoring in the 1 foot rollout, the graph showed both were 6.48 seconds. The true 0-100mph (taking away rollout) for the TTG was 6.89 seconds, and the SLR was 6.97 seconds. But at the very instant when the TTG hit 100mph the SLR had traveled 27 feet further. This means the SLR would have been 2 car lengths ahead at that exact time.

I think the one problem of bench racing with the Vbox is after someone uses it a few times they figure out where there car has the best performance and then that becomes the bench mark for all future bench racing. Example I can beat you from 30-160 or I can beat you 60-160 or 80-180 what happened to good old racing 0=60 0=100 1/4 mile 1 mile. Why make a full run on the Vbox and then pick your best spot and bench race it forever. and what about weather. density altitude. what about a turbo or supercharged car against an N/A car at 4000 ft vs 1000 ft. would you prefer to run your supercharged or TT car at 4000 ft vs sea level against a N/A car or a dead stop race AWD vs 2 WD It would seem the box should be used to setup the forum arguments but should be settled the old fashioned way a real race and not one targeted to a snippet of ones performance but the whole race. Just my observation. In real racing things always turn out different then expected.

Interesting bit of data. But what does it really mean? If the two cars were racing side to side it is not likely they would race to see who could reach a given speed first, but rather a given distance. It's true the TTG is very tricky to launch, especially an E-gear, but it is clearly the quicker car, which you would expect due to power to weight ratio. At the moment that the TTG hit 100 mph in your example, it would probably be bearing down on the SLR at an alarming rate, considering all of the other information and facts.

 

 

Nice job, Fadi! I am impressed by the shift times above all else. I had no doubt the car would win the bet. Can't wait to see the numbers with sticky rubber.

I dont think it would be.. In the 1/4 what hurts the TTG is its gearing, the car is not meant for 1/4 mile racing... Not to use UGR as an example but to go 10.50's they needed a 145mph trap speed, something a 750rwhp GTT, let alone a 700rwhp GTT will not come close to....

Ripper went 11.0@144 (race gas)

I went [email protected] with a decent launch (3.4 0-60) but 2 people in the car

Mr Vrooms GTT was running 11.00s @129-133 @ 700rwhp

Gforce videod himself doing 0-60's, out of like 10 tries he got 1 3.4 sec, all the others were like 3.6-3.8

 

Accichelli"s SLR turned a 10.90@ 134.5, and I believe he only tried the 1/4 once..

 

I think it will take the GTT to somewhere around 140mph to catch the SLR from a dead stop... Only a GTT on race gas would be bearing down on the SLR at an alarming rate.

Maybe. But these cars cover so much ground so quickly that not a lot of time passes from when the car is going say 100 to when it is going 140. So, from the perception of an onlooker or a passenger in the car, my point is that the SLR would probably take a substantial lead off the line only to have the GTT at say the 750 rwhp level storm past at 100+ mph, giving the general appearance and feeling that the GTT is a much faster car that just has a hard time getting out of the hole. Kinda like that guy in Russia with the TT Ford GT, who got his ass kicked off the line almost universally, but inevitably stormed passed every single car as if they were standing still.

 

What was Acicchelli's best 1/4 mile run with his Gallardo?

good run fadi...

allan i love you like a brother, but i would take a G-TT anyday of the week over a SLR.

From a dead stop the GTT will NOT storm passed the SLR at any point in a 1/4 mile run.... From a roll a GTT on race gas will..

 

 

As for the guy in the Ford GTTT, yes... and he did not storm passed anyone at 100mph... but closer to 150 he blew passed everyone like they were standing still..

good run fadi...

Youd be missing out!

On pump gas too.

On pump gas too.

Not a chance..

This debate still going on? I already proved that my slow, "only" 690 rwhp GTT, in lousy conditions, beats even a modded SLR from 60-130. Must I do the same thing from a dig at the drag strip??
