Greetings
thanks for letting me join . Awesome gains w my stinger set-up !!
0-60mph average 3.9-4.1 sec. look forward to talking shop w you nice
people. greetings and thanks again -Stung71
Scratch that time as it is not verifiable as I may have misused timer.. But thank you though honestly for allowing me in your world.

Welcome and congratulations with your upgrades.. . ... ..

Thank you Terra my time might not be as data as I found out I was using a faulty timer -thanks again though

My time is not hard data as I might have misused my device”

Welcome.

Best/easiest way to get a correct time is to record the run and use a video editor to delete all frames prior to you hitting the accelerator and all frames after the car reaches 60.

With that method I was able to record and verify a 4.07 sprint to 60.

Thank you very much. That’s awesome. Much appreciated .

I will hardly say that's accurate at all. You need to have a high resolution GPS device like a dragy or v box to get any realistic numbers.

You don't consider the car's speedometer to be accurate?

Or is it being able to view and edit the video frame by frame down to the millisecond that you're referring to?

...either assertion is...interesting.

 

[KLR STINGER]

Video editing can be slowed or sped up at will. There is no timing trigger based accelerometer ( ie the instant you are moving) not the several rotations rotations of the wheel required to even show 1mph( edit..did the math 14.6 rotations of the wheel per minute are required for 1 mph), the needle sweep graduations are not fine enough, and all OEMs intentionally show higher than true speed by an allowable percentage to avoid speeding tickets by drivers. Shall I go on? If you don't think that adds at least a few tenths, your assertions need reviewing.

Internet bragging isn't a new thing. The acceptable practice is to back it up with data. Time slips, radar trap speed, or high resolution GPS with multi satellite Doppler shift. ( Even your phone GPS and an app is not considered accurate enough for true performance timing)

Why do oems, magazines, and video reviewers test with GPS or radar systems if just recording the speedo will do?

 

[Kamauxx]

Video editing can be slowed or sped up at will.

And it can also be left at the original speed. Being able to alter it doesn't make it less accurate. The person using it just has to NOT change the speed.

It isn't necessary if you can see the exact frame down to the millisecond when the driver hit the gas or the RPMs started climbing. Down. To. The. Millisecond. The m i l l i s e c o n d...

the needle sweep graduations are not fine enough

Maybe the one feature U.S. cars got that Canadians didn't is a digital readout. Maybe you just didn't realize you have a digital readout. Or maybe you're just trying realllly hard to be right, that's cute.

and all OEMs intentionally show higher than true speed by an allowable percentage to avoid speeding tickets by drivers.

Okay... speedometers are hard to make 100% accurate for a number of reasons. But no manufactures are altering the readout to save people from speeding tickets. You're either making things up or just repeating internet myths. Either way you're wrong.

But, for sake of arguing, I've verified my car's speedometer accuracy multiple times. Once or twice a week when my DIGITAL speedo matches the radar "warning" speedo (which I'm sure you'll say is inaccurate) the police set up by my job. And the 3 or 4 times I did top speed runs and verified the speedo matched my Garmin's "highest speed recorded" reading (which you will also call inaccurate).

Shall I go on?

Please no! I didn't even ask you any of what you've already posted.

Why do oems, magazines, and video reviewers test with GPS or radar systems if just recording the speedo will do?

Gee, I don't know. Because spending hundreds of dollars is a worthwhile investment when testing thousands of cars? Because it's easier than going back and having to spend an hour editing a video frame by frame? Because it's sexier to say "we use the new GPSBros XLR4 GPS based gearqueersdreammachine for testing"? Shall I go on?

Internet bragging isn't a new thing.

You are adorable! I just want to put you in my pocket. Are you fuzzy? I bet you're all fuzzy and soft like a 1990s Beanie Baby. Awww snuckems.

Lol, nah I'm done man. I have way too many clashes with folks here. I'm not looking for another.

I need personality rehabilitation or something.

Nah man -you were just trying to be helpful—- I know some people just are boisterous (sp) it ain’t worth your time sometimes. Much respect.
Thanks again K.
