My 458

Q's turbo ran 12.1 @ 119.9
GT3 ran 12.4 @ 116.?

not bad for normal traffic light takeoff IMO

 

Q's Turbo hey.....he keeps telling me it runs 10's & wants to sell it to me when the time is right....."WAS" a good selling point

No...really....they are some decent times boys. Good MPH as well

 

How'd you guess?

Nice times!

20 years ago and STILL a higher terminal speed

never could stop the excessive wheel spin.

 

F40's got more torque.

 

I remember that vid! Very cool

 

there is an art to drag racing

at the Brickies in Sydney it was called getting out before the cops arrived

 

there sure is...and I never mastered it, and didn't care to, actually. Has to be hard on a cars like the ones we have.

 

wow, that F40 sounds like it has a rotary in it LOL

yeah, european cars arent very good on the 1/4 mile, the MPH indicates they should be far quicker, but its hard to get it right.

i wonder what my GT3 would do with 2 turbo's on it? hmmmm


but to keep it on track, what does a 458 do down the quarter?

 

0-50 mph (80 km/h) 2.60 s
0-60 mph
0-100 km/h 3.40 s
0-100 mph 6.90 s
80-120 km/h (50-70 mph) in top
Standing ¼mile 11.30 s
@ 129.20 mph
Standing km 20.30 s
Top speed 325 km/h (202 mph)

 

TT GT3 would be nuts!

I think the 458 does low 11's.

 

i think it's called a GT2 souvlaki head.

 

11 dead

Sorry I'm late to the party but Congrats Mark, what a way to get to know your new toy! Glad to hear everything is good with her, enjoy!!

 

When are you comming over again?

 

Good friend of mine (old flat mate) just moved over to Melbourne 2 weeks ago, I'm planning to come across for the GP. Nothing set in stone yet though...

 

great.

 

Yeah, my brother said NZ is ****ed and the masses are moving over here. He's here in Jan to work for Channel 9 again.

 

Interesting. Not a trend I have noticed but now it's been mentioned.....

 

He was talking about his GT3 spaghetti head.

Awesome, I will be there.

Hope you make it over so we can catch up for a drink James!

 

Have you booked tickets to the GP?? Seated or GA??

First beer is on me (you can buy the rest )
