i own a just a coop, so probably somewhere in the 15 or 16 seconds. just kidding, but really, its not fast.

 

Not sure how you want us to take the measurements - a friend in the passenger seat with a stopwatch using the (optimistic) speedometer? You're more likely to get a "0-56 mph" or "0-57 mph" time if that's the case.

Would you accept a 0-60 time from a G-Tech Pro or similar accelerometer-based device?

 

This thread is probably going down the road of this.....

hmmm lemme look up the drag slip, I'm sure the car is quicker now, but I'm 99% sure there was a 60ft trap in there

 

He's asking for 0-60 mph times, not 60' trap times.

(Unless you can hit 60 MPH at the 60-foot mark, in which case, YOU WIN! )

 

0-60 in 60 now there's a good Calculus problem!

I know, I was being a wise-butt, oh BTW I'll be the first here to put down a time, 2.563 sec.

 

my fastest recorded on my completely stock,at the time, r53 is 7.73 with a zero to 50 of 6.17. but i had one run where i cut off at 56mph, due to a mailtruck, where my 0-50 was 5.64. this is all according to my dynolicious software on my iphone which according to a few reviews ive read is quite accurate.

Per Dynolicious, my best time in my heavy automatic cabrio with my quarter-ton lardbutt in it was 6.68... that was before my cam (in now) and header (next week)....

6.35 via Dynolicious in a '05 JCW with RMW tune. (might have had a tailwind ;o)

 

No schittt.

Would be the best performance mod I could make, at this point.

 

This is a good idea for a thread. I've been looking for this basic info from the tuners, but have not seen it posted anywhere. Would love to know what Longboards MINI or Jan's stroker could do.

 

I'll use my Dynolicious tonight for you. Mods are as follows:

'03 MCS (weight 2840 lbs)

Stock S-lites on bald non-runflat A/S tires...
15% pulley (Slipping stock belt = 12lbs boost)
DDM intake
Invidia Cat-back exhaust
Denso Iridium plugs
Engine damper
M7 springs

Those should be the only things that effect my 0-60 times.

**Times per my 1 run. I will admit I think this is skewed as I had my Touch placed in my cupholder, and a stuffed animal stuffed in there with it to kind of hold it in place...**

0-10 = 3.05
0-20 = 3.97
0-30 = 4.81
0-40 = 5.67
0-50 = 6.95
0-60 = 8.11

60' = 4.64
1/4 mile = 16.14 @108.2
Max accel = .77 G's
Peak HP = 230 HP

Obviously something's not right. Maybe I should velcro it to my dash... I have a cell phone holder that would work perfectly, but my cupholder is in it's spot...I'll try and rig something up and get back as soon as I can.

 

If using Dynolicious, make sure that it isn't triggering prematurely before you launch... yech, that sounds a little nasty.

But on my car, the iPhone (in a real proclip holder) was vibrating enough to trigger it when I was revving up to 2K for my launch... so I had to set the triggering value higher, up to like 0.15G or something.

 

I did 0-60 in 6.25 seconds in my stock 2005 MCS/JCW on a cool spring day when it had about 7K miles on it. I have LSD, 17" S-Lites and Pirellis. I feel the car is capable of a better time, but I did NOT abuse the clutch by slipping it, and I did NOT powershift. I recorded the run with RESIPSAMCS's G timer device. I forgot what brand it was. (1/4 came up in 14.4@96)

If my Camaro is capable of 0-60 in 5.2 like the magazines say, then my seat of the pants agrees with a 6.2 second 0-60 run for the Cooper S/JCW.

Rawhyde what kind of Camaro do you own?

 

It's a 1995 B4C Special Service Pkg Camaro with a 6 speed manual that I ordered and bought new. There were only 310 B4C Camaros built in 1995. Since then, it's never been driven in the rain and has 10,600 miles on the clock. It's liable to cause a fight, but it's the pride and joy of my automotive fleet!

I got to play with a racing data system in Quentin. I got 0-60 in 7.8 sec.



The main limiting factor seems to be taking about 1 sec to change gears in the middle of that.

For contrast I used Dynolicious on my iPhone in Shawn and got about 8.7 sec because it takes 2 gear changes to get to 60. With the slightly smaller than stock tires (205/50R16, same as Quentin) and lower redline 2nd gear tops out at 57mph.

 

Better yet measure a 10-65mph time. Too many variables with launch to get any kind of accurate database.

 

5.7-5.9

But seriously, mini's aren't draggers. They are however, AMAZING at going around those little things we call turns.

 

0-60 in 8.11 seconds ?

Is that while driving on pavement, beach sand or snow ? lol,

 

Guess an SSK would shorten length of shift times then ?
