I'm sure its launching hard, but 3.65, that's faster than a Lambo with 4wd. I think the numbers are inaccurate. It would mean you are roughly doubling the friction cooefficient of the tyres, and I don't see how this is possible....<{POST_SNAPBACK}>well... I see where your going. The fact is, the PDA measures inputs from the OBDII port. It tells the program when the tyres start turning, it tells them when it reaches 100kph ( 60mph ) None of this G-Force gtech business..... There's more than one way to skin a cat. Oh, was testing my new tune today. In the heat ( 120deg F intakes ) backed up a 3.80 to 60mph with 8.05 to 1/8th mile. mph was down, but there was NO wheelspin. We're getting close.

I read a post that geaa's car did 0-100 under 3sec ... I could be wrong, but I am sure I read it somwhere...MuzzaAs you found out, drag radials...This means he had roughly 3 times more grip than you could ever achieve on the open road.Just think about this for a second.Lambo Mrcielago-It has about 50 more kw. your 330 at the wheels is what, 380 at the fly? It has 426 at the fly and about half the drivetrain loss (proven as its top speed is dependant on this).-Sure, down a bit on torque but whatever, 650 is nothing to sneeze at and the curve itself is physics defyingly flat, so its strong everywhere.-4wd-Semi racing tyres (they might as well be if they aren't, they have more grip than your tyres, put it that way).-Above tyres are also extremely wide, it has about twice the driven surface area.-It also weighs less (1650[wet] vs 1700[dry]. Wet would mean about 1750).-It does over 100km/h in first gear. This isn't because it has long gearing either, it simply has nearly 3000 more RPM to play with.... Considering it makes 80% torque at 2000rpm, it isn't down on force. When it launches, revs don't drop below 2000rpm anyways. -Its computer helps it launch (with e-gear only).So just think about it for a tick.And the thing is, if he proves this on the track, hes proven nothing. On the track, he will have a surface that will give at least 50% more grip to play with, possibly more in total than the Lambo.I don't see how you can prove this comprehensivly, without a proper sat tracking timing system (corivet, sp?)...What I'm saying is, physically its possible. Easily, with the right tyres and a prepared surface, IE, WSID.On road tyres, and on the road, its pushing it a little, that's all I'm saying. And then I'm comparing that time with a similar time from another car, the Lambo, to give you an idea of why I might be doubting you.Please prove me wrong though, because it means that a manual ute can rip it hard, and that's a bloody good thing.

Breaking traction in second gear will get your tyres hitting 100km/h a lot faster than the rest of the car does!
